The Geländewagen, or G-Wagen as it’s more commonly known has been Mercedes-Benz’s off-road vehicle for the last 45 years. Launched in 1979, this utilitarian, boxy 4x4 is a far cry from the look and feel of the S-Class, GL and Maybach models but it retains a huge following. And while it may be all function on the outside, inside it can be just as luxurious as anything else adorned in that three-pointed star.
To celebrate its long service, the G-Class has been given some serious upgrades for 2024, bringing it up to date – and beyond – the rest of the fleet. The good news for fans of the OG-Wagen is that despite these upgrades, the vehicle doesn’t look that different from the outside. Instead, the focus has been on the engines and the interior.
