New Mercedes G(L)-class

Quote:

Mercedes-Benz is to unveil a new highlight in the luxury Sport Utility Vehicle market segment: the GL-Class. The seven-seater premium off-roader offers excellent handling both on and off-road and pampers occupants with its extremely spacious accommodation and the comfort of a luxury saloon. The GL-Class sets another milestone with PRE-SAFE®, the comprehensive safety concept, a first in this market segment.

With its poised, assured presence, the GL-Class leaves you in no doubt about its aspirations to conquer this competitive market segment. The distinctive design idiom exudes power and exclusivity. Calm body surfaces, powerful, wedge-shaped features and striking details give the impression the luxury off-roader is surging forward even when stationary. The spacious body (length 5088 mm, width 1920 mm, height 1840 mm) is beautifully proportioned.

I can't understand the point of this car. It looks just a longer M class.

The previous G class was a truly off-roader ( and maybe the best one ) but it seems it was the last Mercedes of that kind :x

It's the future, and we have to live with that :roll:

This is what happens when a car company uses the American market as the basis of their model line-up... (no offense chaps... it's just the truth)

The current G55 is THE COOLEST 4x4. Why do bother do a new one.. ! :roll:

I drove it for 2 weeks, and it was mouth drooling, The sound and performance was exceptional, + the way it looks,!

Come on, that is how 4x4 look like, if you give a kid to draw for you a 4x4, he will draw G-Class..

i think you can stick "the star" on every car like for example the twingo, and ppl will buy the damn thing :lol:

but it looks ok, but my choice would be the G 55 AMG, or now when, i hope, the AMG will put his new V8 in G, the 6.3 V8 :P :D
