New G:
Finally the all new #Gwagon! Today I’ll show you 3 different versions: the new #MercedesAMG G63 “Performance”, the G63 Off-Road-Pro and the standard #Mercedes Benz G500!
We have some big changes under the skin, Every G is now a mild Hybrid, with an ISG sitting in the gearbox giving every model a boost of 20HP and 200nm.
So with the G500 it gets a new power unit, with a 6 cylinder hybrid taking on the job of the old V8 - more power and more economy now of offer.
But don’t worry, our AMG is still a V8, but more powerful now too thanks to hybrid! And with an all new suspension option that should once again change the game for dynamic driving in the G63. It’s called AMG Active Ride Control, and it’s derived from the new AMG GT and SL - but is even more of a game changer for a tall vehicle.
We have adaptive shock absorbers with Hydraulic connections on each 4 wheels, and this system can regulate the spring rate per wheel on the fly! So we can have flat cornering and a sporty ride more akin to AMGs, but then also get much more comfortable on straight roads.
And finally for both models, what’s way more important for the G customer, is the HUGR interior upgrades that I have to fill you in on. Including cool additions like keyless entry FINALLY, active steering assist (self drive) and much more!
So join me, and let’s check out every detail of the all new G63 and G500!

Your edits while reviewing are so amazing. That off road spec looks absolutely perfect! Love the new G, can't believe the G500 doesn't have a V8 anymore..

All i needed was that touchscreen and trick suspension

[@Peanutdenver]

Agreed! I like how they've kept the turbo charged V8 as well...makes me wonder why they'll still drop a V8 in a G Wagon but not the C63 AMG.

[@Peanutdenver]

@@Unknown-ki8yk And the C63 sedan doesn't? Really dude????

[@Peanutdenver]

@@Unknown-ki8yk It was their best selling performance sedan and a hallmark car for Mercedes. Since you do not know this you have to be new to the car game and especially AMG. The C63 AMG was the main competitor to the BMW M3, RS5 Saloon and the Alpha Quad. It was their most renowned performance 4 door, up until the threw a 4 pot under the hood instead of a V8. The V8 was in the car dating back 2007 for the modern version. It's one of Merc's most important vehicles and anyone who somewhat familiar with performance saloons and coupes has been critical of Mercedes doing just this, except you. The GWagon is a niche vehicle for Merc and they sell a small number of them compared to the(former)C63 AMG.

[@fadilrahman2157]

The CLS Shooting brake W218 (X218 for the SB) first debuted the yacht inspired wooden flooring, it was absolutely immaculate and almost made me buy that car. Surprisingly it was available with all engine types.

I wish they would do away with the side exhaust that is vulnerable to off-road damage. A snorkle from factory would be so cool.

The off-road package on the G63 looks good, except for fearing damage to those side exhausts.

[@jesse1008]

Excellent video ! I really enjoyed the cars and how you do this format.

[@ethenjordan2010]

We got the G550 Final Edition in today, and the G63 Grand Edition coming. Should be sweet

[@telomnisi3048]

I prefer the previous model of the G. It had a more tactile feel, which, to me, is essential to the experience of using a G. This newer version feels too digital, lacking the mechanical sensation that defines a G for me.

[@fuhrerhosty]

This dual landscape screen setup is the best one Mercedes has done to date. I just hate how nowadays the middle screen has to be the size of a small TV. Also hate when the main gauges are not covered by an overhang. It sucks to look at when it's sunny outside.

[@9fiveb180]

I like how the center air controls and vents look like E.T.

Great video yet again, just one minor thing. In the future is it possible to make the commercial and video more equal regarding the sound. The commercials are always twice as loud as the video. Just a minor thing!

[@ArchieMakuwa]

The wood finish I first saw in the G-Class G63 AMG 6x6 rear load. In South Africa we got the Brabus version due to the RHD conversion, but I first saw the wooden lining in the 6 wheeler.

[@RagnarEldur]

When I've become a rich programmer, I'm getting me one of these!

[@CarGuyzDallas]

Ordered a G almost 3 years ago and finally after 2 plus years of delays I was told that I would receive it q1 of 2024 and I was excited that I would potentially have the new release version as we see here but that didn't happen... I got the final edition g550, I am torn.. I think that the V8 that is in the g550 is a absolute Beauty but man would I like to have all the other things that the updated g500 and g63 now have. . Which would you prefer

[@thomashrubecky1663]

Get the new(est) one. It sucks to take the depreciation hit but that pain will be soothed the moment you drive out of the dealership whilst having all those updated in your hands. Ahhh….

[@morten_hannesbo]

I believe the first suv to have the wooden cargo area was the 2009 Audi Q7 V12 TDI (which I once owned)

[@kathargo73]

Thanks for the video! If I were to spec one now, I would go for the offroad pro package. Then unselect the roofrack and ladder ( saves you 4 grand to!) and make it look like the G63 performance, but now it has the best of both worlds. I'd rather have all those modes added then a 0,1 faster 0-60 time. You can then still decide on whatever rimms you prefer (I'd probably keep the offraod ones) and if you want the offroad spare tire or just the regular.

[@vindevhunta4905]

Finally… I like the the unveiling out in the wild ❤. Minimal but nice changes.. Nice paint job,no white on my interior please.

[@theofficialpeterkim]

I’m loving the exterior color.

[@v12-s65]

the differences are subtle but all they should be! Updated the infotainment and kept their best interior design language!! Shouldn't have went vertical screen at all. Always try to improve without revolutionizing a running system, this is an example of it Although have to say I'd have kept the old steering wheel and iwc Ahh I see they've updated the burmester too, one extra speaker in the roof.

[@speedrepublic5270]

I’m quite surprised Mercedes are not offering a plug in hybrid G - something that could do circa 60/70 miles of elec and then the rest from a straight 6 or V8 (like a P550e Rover for example). This appeals to company car drivers and surely opens up the sales a bit more. Not sure I get the point of a mild hybrid, the c02 emissions are still very high so BIK is still mental. And in other news, hopefully this squeezes prices of the 2018 onwards G Wagon as they have been high for sometime, albeit they are sliding downhill.

[@lenol0315]
