The press release announces the launch of the all-new Mercedes-Benz G-Class, building on the iconic off-road model series established in 1979. Retaining its traditional ladder-frame construction and three mechanical differential locks, along with LOW RANGE off-road reduction, rigid rear axle, and independent front suspension, the G-Class incorporates modern updates for enhanced performance and comfort.

Key features include a redesigned off-road control unit, the new OFFROAD COCKPIT, and a “transparent bonnet” for a digital off-road experience. Electrification improves off-road responsiveness and on-road comfort, with mild hybrids boasting an integrated starter-generator and 48-volt electrical system for increased performance and reduced fuel consumption.

Enhanced connectivity is provided through the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment system, featuring 12.3-inch driver and media displays with touch control. The new G-Class also offers advanced safety and assistance systems to support drivers.

Extensive customization options are available through the MANUFAKTUR range for both exterior and interior design. Exterior modifications include a subtly redesigned radiator grille, updated bumpers, new A-pillar cladding, and roof-edge spoiler lip, contributing to improved aerodynamics and acoustic comfort.

PRESS RELEASE

The all-new Mercedes-Benz G-Class continues the success story of the model series that was established in 1979. The off-road icon continues to rely on tried-and-tested ladder-frame construction, three mechanical differential locks and LOW RANGE off-road reduction as well as a rigid rear axle and independent front suspension.

The redesigned off-road control unit, the new OFFROAD COCKPIT and the “transparent bonnet” enable a digital off-road experience.

Thanks to electrification, the new models offer improved responsiveness off-road and greater comfort on paved roads. The mild hybrids with an integrated starter-generator (ISG) and a 48-volt on-board electrical system also impress with increased performance and reduced fuel consumption.

With the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment system and 31.2-centimetre (12.3-inch) driver and media displays with touch control, the new G-Class is more connected than ever.

A host of advanced safety and assistance systems support drivers.

The MANUFAKTUR range for extensive customisation of both exterior and interior has been expanded once again.

Subtly modified exterior with new radiator grille featuring four instead of the previous three horizontal louvres and redesigned bumpers both front and rear.

New A-pillar cladding, a spoiler lip on the roof edge and new insulation materials contribute to improved aerodynamics and increased acoustic comfort.
