I would be so mad if I bought an EQS SUV and then this came out. This is 100% better

[@Helmigurt]

It’s way worse in many metrics: less range, more wind noise, less AC charging (11 vs 22 kW), less top speed. But still I would always get a G580 instead of a EQS. 😅

[@normanli7085]

​@@Helmigurt eqs and eqe aren't even electric versions of the gls and gle. They are each categorized a size smaller

[@uelld.8371]

That four electric motors system likely based on the SLS tech decade ago. I assume they had improved it more by adding the low gear to fit for the off-road.

[@andrewg7576]

Just watched to look at the matte blue ->

[@rolfknappmann]

The least aerodynamic electric car of all time :D I love that Mercedes did that. It's so smart. Most electric cars look futuristic and roundish (except the Cybertruck), but to just take the EXACT design of one of their most popular (if not THE most popular of their) vehicles and transition it to electric is probably a great business decision. More car makers should make an EV out of their most popular car, without really changing the design, but simultaneously selling the combustion engine version. This is the best chance to make people like the car and transition to electric. The G-turn feature definitely helps. Mercedes starts building tanks again xD

[@MaticTheProto]

Yup. The G is insanely sought after. Our dealerships get around 21 per batch. They are unlocked for ordering in the evening and are already all sold early morning. We have a really long waitlist for them too, and considering we are in the Swabian part of Germany where most people are rather stingy and don’t like to flex with expensive cars, that says a lot! Also since mercedes HQ is in Stuttgart, I saw a lot of EQG prototypes driving around here over the last years. They did a lot of real world testing!

[@hummerltheOh]

@@MaticTheProto The Mercedes HQ is in Stuttgart, but the G Class is actually developed and produced in Graz, Austria :) That's where I live and I saw a ton of them, they have been tested thoroughly :)

[@MaticTheProto]

@@hummerltheOh produced yes, but they also had a ton of them drive around near Stuttgart

True

[@Mclovin2469]

I can't believe I'm saying this but I would genuinely have this over any other G wagon. In fact I feel like this is a perfect daily car if you could afford it. One of these and a proper NA sports car for the weekends? Couldn't get better imo

[@teovm]

Thanks for that video. I likeit a lot. Actually this is the best electric Mercedes-Benz at the moment. Ups.. wrong - this is the best electric CAR at the moment. I think that you stated this a couple of times in the video - this is how an EV car should look and feel. Looks like a normal vehicle, has normal controls (as normal as they can be) and all of that makes it feel like a normal car.

[@MLHunt]

That tank turn feature isn't just a gimmick but has real utility in the field.

No issue. It can actually do deeper wading than the ice version because that one can drown the engine. EVs don’t need air

[@Xenon0000000000001]

It's four very simple transmissions that only change gear going from normal to low range.
