Mercedes-Benz G-Class 2008 Overview
The Gelaendewagen stands out anywhere, even in the heart of the urban jungle. Mildly facelifted for 2007, its classic boxy looks have remained untouched for over 20 years apart from the interior where the comfort levels have been repeatedly upgraded. The trademark clean-cut, sharp lines have already made the G-Wagen a cult classic. The G-Class represents pure off-road driving pleasure. It is among the elite few off-roaders that combine comfortable surroundings with a complete suite of off-road equipment. The model range includes a five-door wagon, a three-door wagon and a limited-edition soft-top version of the three-door. Versions for the latest incarnation include the carryover 5.5-litre G 500 and the upgraded 5.4-litre G 55 AMG Kompressor. Standard specification includes permanent four-wheel drive with an off-road reduction gear plus the electronically controlled traction system 4ETS, the Electronic Stability Program and three differential locks which can be operated at the push of a button. The G-Class is built for Mercedes-Benz by Magna Steyr in Austria, and has been since 1979.
