The electric motors are located near the wheels and develop a combined output of 579 hp and 859 lb-ft of torque.
The 116-kWh high-voltage lithium-ion battery integrated into the ladder frame ensures a low center of gravity. To protect it from water and dirt intrusion, it is housed in a torsion-resistant casing.
Fully automatic virtual differential locks enable variable torque distribution among the individual wheels for traction with maximum flexibility and maneuverability even on the most challenging terrain.
The OFFROAD COCKPIT®, accessed through the off-road control center, displays essential off-road data and enables quick access to vehicle functions. The "transparent hood" function, coupled with the 360-degree camera, enhances obstacle visibility by providing a virtual view beneath the vehicle.
The electric G-Class's G-TURN allows it to rotate on the spot, facilitating navigation around obstacles on unpaved terrain by independently rotating its wheels in opposite directions.
The intelligent off-road crawl function with three available settings supports off-road driving by maintaining optimum propulsion, allowing the driver to focus on navigating difficult terrain.
Both AC and DC charging are possible thanks to an 11-kW on-board AC charger and a DC fast charging system with a charging capacity of up to 200 kW. With DC fast charging, the high voltage battery is able to charge from 10 to 80 percent SoC (State of Charge) in approximately 32 minutes.
The MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment system with 12.3-inch driver display and 12.3-inch central multimedia display with touch control are equipped standard.
A sophisticated 64-color ambient lighting system allows drivers to personalize their driving experience with a myriad of atmospheric lighting options.
Inside, the multifunction sports steering wheel in Nappa leather with flattened bottom and touch controls, as well as steering wheel trim and shift paddles in silver chrome further contribute to the dynamic appearance.
The High-End Rear Seat Entertainment features two integrated 11.6-inch touch displays for passengers to watch movies, browse the internet, access trip information, and more.
The all-new electric G-Class preserves the iconic DNA of its predecessor while integrating exclusive design elements tailored for electric mobility, ensuring a seamless blend of tradition and innovation in its angular silhouette and signature features.
Instantly recognizable, the Electric Mercedes-Benz G 580 boasts classic round headlights and a radiator grille with four horizontal louvers. Optional features like the black panel radiator grille with animated LED light band add a touch of sophistication, while ambient lighting projecting the brand logo enhances the welcoming ambiance.
Enhanced aerodynamics, including a slightly raised hood and flared rear wheel arches with "air curtains," contribute to improved efficiency. Alongside new insulation materials, these design elements elevate acoustic comfort, ensuring a refined driving experience.
