The subtle refresh of the new model is one thing; however, by mid-year, the long-awaited electric version will finally be available. Off-road, it’s not just ground clearance and overhangs that determine whether a trail can […]
The kit includes several forged carbon fiber components. The SUV's interior has been overhauled with white leather and green accents. A key highlight of Mansory's latest G63 is the bulbous carbon fiber hood. Ah, the Mercedes-AMG G63. The undisputed king of ostentatious off-roading (or at least off-roading within a 10-mile radius of a valet stand). The Mercedes-AMG G63 has always held its ground as one of the most commanding SUVs on the market, but Mansory's latest version takes this reputation...
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class — the rugged off-road powerhouse that launched in 1979 and has since become a brutalist status symbol — has gone electric.

It has four motors, 579 hp, and an off-road heritage that goes back further than the Rivian R1S, GMC Hummer EV, and Tesla Cybertruck.

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, aka the Gelandewagen (which means "all-terrain vehicle" in German) has been in regular production since 1979. It's changed a lot since then, evolving from a utilitarian off-roader to a desirable luxury icon, but it's never seen a change quite like this. Meet the Mercedes-Benz G 580 with EQ Technology. That's a long and mild name for a pretty radical reinvention of the classic G. This is the first battery-powered G-Wagen, driven by a whopping four electric motors that...
