I love that everything in this video was done in a slow and controlled manner, not just hooning the car in some sand to make it look cool. Also, leaving in the actual sounds instead of covering it with music is a big plus. Great video.
I bet a lot of buyers have no idea they are a proper ladder frame chassis 4x4. There really aren’t that many choices out there and I can only think of the Toyota Land Cruiser, Mitsubishi Shogun Sport and the Suzuki Jimny with the same set up. This is a dream car for me, classy and capable and I can imagine extremely reliable. Nice work Mercedes.
@@qp4367 sorry, its the body basically bolted separately onto the chassis, a frame, rather than it being all one construction, a monocoque body I think they call it. Allows for much greater strength and off road durability.
Always knew these were badass, but had never seen one actually put through it's paces! I love the way they look, but having the capabilities as well makes them even more desirable! Thanks for sharing!
What I love to see on those shoot outs are some informative tiny inscriptions about the diff locks engaged on every instance. That would be precious for the offroad enthusiasts...
The G-Class is my dream SUV. 3 locking diffs, powerful engines, built like a tank, and ultra-luxurious. It's so quiet inside! One of the few cars that expensive that are totally worth the money to me. A G63 AMG though. Not a base model.
I would love to see the best cheap off-road vehicle on the same track following the G wagon. I have an AWD GV x-Sport and live in a mountainous country where commuting is 90% off-road. Furthermore, my daily drives look very similar to this. And yes, I truly believe my cheap GV could do this track with no problem. No offense to the G, it still deserves to be respected for the monster that it is.
Exactly my thoughts. My 3rd Gen 4x4 with RLD, CLD and FLD and OEM Wheels will do this obstacles with equal ease as the G WAGON hence I can't justify paying $150,000 dollars when I can pay 2000 bux for a 3rd Gen and an additional 3 Grand in lockers and Tires and get same exact results.
@@christiansanden8005 Nah, there were army versions of this well just without luxuries and it was called PUH and made in Austria. Sorry G wagon rules and if look at it Landcruiser is just a cheaper copy of it
If you got enough money to buy it then you don’t have enough time for off-roading. So it doesn’t matter if it is the best off road vehicle or not. Best is the one that you can afford
jh5kl oh oh land cruiser is the most crappy 4x4 and even Nissan patrol my cousin had bought brand new full option 5.7 V8 2018 model even with Tyre pressures low it got stuck in sand and it was with bf Goodrich KO 2 Tyre a which is the best off road Tyres and still land cruiser got stuck using all the crawl control and other off road modes and also it hit a Mitsubishi Pajero and the bumper fell down literally. So the crappy one is land cruiser. Nissan Patrol same in fact it gets stuck more the land cruiser in sand and mud it's too heavy the old ones were much better
I have to say I have a Jeep. The G-Wagon really surprised me, I did not think it can actually do all the things in this video, but proved me wrong. The rock crawling was man made rocks lol and was all mostly flat. But 2 thumbs up for G Class. Amazing Job!!
@Autos & Cultura SUVs never insult. SUVs are for taking people in off-road and damaged roads that cars cannot go offroading. People need to learn SUVs are far better than low ground clearance cars.
Land Cruiser is best at over landing type off roading, not serious off roading, and I'm a big fan of Cruisers...If you're referring to 200 series, now 70 series, those are very good at serious off roading...
if you mean the amg versions yeah, but the regular g class which you can barely even find on youtube, then its the opposite, its the most serious offroad tool in this form, its mostly used by armies, mountain rescue teams, farmers (yes farmers), campers etc
For a standard car that is insane flexibility, but for an 4x4 car,that is maybe average suspension articulation.. nothing special. landcruiser and patrol have much more..
That’s why I have my Suzuki Samurai to go off road and make it go through everything because it is cheap but that Mercedes it is too expensive and break my heart if get even dirt a bit... But it is a beast !!!!! Nice video!!!
I can't agree with you more... Combining street credibility, luxurious appointments and premium positioning makes for an expensive vehicle. For those who on a budget, who really need an off-roader, Suzuki is the best option.
They should have kept the solid front axle instead of the IFS. It doesn't have good articulation anymore that's why it's lifting it's front wheels off the ground. Wrangler Rubicon is by far the most capable SUV you can buy.
G-Wagon is definitely a good unit but it would have been more entertaining to watch it tackle the loose gravel and dirt going up not just going down. It was never going to struggle on those inclines with the grip available on the concrete and perforated steel. Neither would 90% of 4wd's with a low range transfer case.
I'd go for anything quattro after watching Audi vs Subaru ,a few really good videos .. also and this is a long one, Audi quattro vs Mercedes 4matic vs BMW xdrive. says it all in that video.. cheers, great piece n still love G-wagons.
It's a tough sturdy vehicle, but almost all owners will use it like a small baby, and will be paying high servicing and maintenance cost because it has off road capabilities and will be using all their life on tarmac so 99.9 % are spending their money for something they will never use.
German made and their so called reliability is a complete joke these days but I would agree this Mercedes G is in the vein of its proud ancestors. Of all 3 Merc / BMW / VW Audi there is no doubt Merc has always been the most reliable with a few bad patches every now and then especially in the 90-2000s. I would definitely buy a G class Diesel or a Unimog 😁
David Farmer He’s a pleb when it comes to a lot of things. Multiple videos have incorrect info. Can’t believe a guy can read an owners manual before filming and gross millions of views...
Such a shame G Wagon lost the solid front. Is neither here nor there vehicle. Not a purpose build off-road like the old G. Not a pavement vehicle either with un-aerodynamic boxy shape. Truly a poser mobile. Watch the video, the tire lifts off the ground all the time. Just by geometry, an a-arm will never have the articulation as solid axle. You are constrained by the angle of the CV shaft and length of a-arms. Ford tried the twin I-beam long ago. That was one way to get articulation back.
Not to take away from how awesome the G-Class is, but wouldn't you expect it to perform well at a course that was designed specifically for it? I'd love to see it out on some real trails with proven off road vehicles. This is one big add by Mercedes.
I love G-Class, all are good. Especially G63 AMG, very strong exterior and modern furniture but i don't like the dashboard. Should separate the touch screen and meter

Can you explain what a chassis is, and why it's so important and particularly the "ladder frame"?
@@qp4367 sorry, its the body basically bolted separately onto the chassis, a frame, rather than it being all one construction, a monocoque body I think they call it. Allows for much greater strength and off road durability.
@@oddities-whatnot it's called unibody for most cars.Monocoque is a egg shell looking chassis that were used commonly on hypercars and race cars

And it's not only off road but luxurious
Same here!

what, do you own a fuckin a class?
No music no talking no adsmp bs. Just perfect video.
G-Class is the combination of luxury, power, speed, offroader and many more that no other cars can have in this manner
What about Toyo Landcruiser and Land Rover Discovery/Range Rover?
Well you can always get one of those, byt then it’s not g class, and why to get g class simple the best or nothing.

I can watch this all day long
It's so much more powerful to watch without no stupid commentary.
Imagine with bigger, proper off-road tires and just a 2" lift what this beast could do.....
Rip off your pocket! Helll yeaaahh

There's already one

Fake smart comment
G-wagon is a all-in-1 and is the best off-road with luxury! G-wagon is a tank!
Most excellent videography!💪🏼🇺🇸
from what i have seen it really puts those range rovers to shame
Facts
Mercedes never disappoints. Greatness
This is what what the G-wagon was made for not for flexing. This is not a fashion show
That's the best off roader, even better than Land Rover.
The two best cars !

A specially designed course well within the G class capabilities to impress those who really haven't a clue. D

It's not an insult it's a successful offroader.

SRBIJA wow congrats man
That's awesome! I would love to see the new defender try that track in comparison to the gwagon
This is a good suv, to ride on the road, the best vehicle for of roading has always been and always will be the land cruiser
Until the 2021 bronco
G-class is much more capable, but Land Cruiser is more reliable.

Sadly this wouldn't be taken for any kind of off roading by their owners
if you mean the amg versions yeah, but the regular g class which you can barely even find on youtube, then its the opposite, its the most serious offroad tool in this form, its mostly used by armies, mountain rescue teams, farmers (yes farmers), campers etc
too expensive to risk
Yes, because the owner s age normally over half century.
Wrong! I always do. I get it dirty all the time.
@@ducatilove11 Quiet rare.only few.
My favourite beast of all time I wish it comes in electric version soon.
Imagine that torque ❤ but the v8 does make good sound. But electric would be nice option extra bagage space in the front

The flexibility of that suspension at 2:49 is just insane. Look at how the rear left wheel kind of twists to maintain body balance.
For a standard car that is insane flexibility, but for an 4x4 car,that is maybe average suspension articulation.. nothing special. landcruiser and patrol have much more..
No way your in the lake! You animal! You're a mad man!🤪
It’s sad how off-road capable they are and 90% of people who own one will never take it off-road
