Breaking News: Everything There Is To Know About The 2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class

[@TFLtruck]

Thanks for watching! Please check out this Drag Race between the new 4Runner and the old Hummer H2: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3eso5iuoMhog9U

[@rajtilaksingh8858]

The Fast Lane Truck what was that vertical strip on last pillar(D) something to do with aerodynamics as it has a lot of wind noise.

[@dimitriwaardenburg4631]

The Fast Lane Truck! Whats up guys !!! Just wanted to let you know that i love your videos!!! The interviews, the montage and the images are really professional!!! Love all your channels and videos in general, you guys are awesome keep up the good work 😀✌

[@agger732]

All these people complaining about the front suspension keeping them from buying it...lets be more realistic. The $125k price tag is what is keeping everyone from getting it. Not the front axle.

[@tacosalads4556]

agger732 real shit right there

[@Gunfreak451]

The truth has been spoken!

[@benjamin7114]

It wasn't worthy of that price ... now it is

[@samsonokoro5036]

It still isn't worth the price in my opinion, there's so much more luxury and tech in a range rover autobiography than this for similar pricing even though the autobiography is slightly more expensive. I would even take a fully loaded Lexus LX570 for just over 100k to this and it would give better luxury and comfort with equal off road capabilities. This SUV only sells cause of the brand name and it still isn't a best seller at the end of it all.

[@johankriek1306]

The Range Rover's diff-lock in the rear is optional (none for the front) and the Lexus LX has none - it's relying on stupid traction control. The G-Wagon's got front and rear diff-locks (and obviously center) as standard. The 3X 'lockers put the G-Glass in a league of its own!

[@jakes5530]

That teal blue color they show on and off briefly is absolutely stunning

[@billwilmington8284]

Great video guys! Mercedes Benz rep was super cool!

[@BenLeBlanc1]

Quick tip: when you look at tires, can you read off the size? I’m less interested in make than I am about rim size, aspect ration, etc.

[@timfox2344]

Barely a murmur from the chaos outside once the doors were closed.

[@abedekok322]

Since when was Jonny Lieberman a spokesperson for Mercedes?

[@flame5169]

Abe Dekok He grew slick hair too

[@abedekok322]

kek

[@mrpusten]

Was waiting for "Hi there!"

[@Van-Hammer]

😊

[@kellyfontes7757]

He left the dork card at home too. "HI THERE".. pinchi pendejo

[@SDav21]

Yes. Mercedes has sound engineeres. They have a sound room that blocks out all other noise and they put a component in the room (like a sunroof, an electric seat or the whole car). The engineers then sit in a room and listen to noises made by the electric motors, the indicator sound, door lock sound etc and they engineer each part to make a specific sound.

[@CarlosCeballos56]

THAT'S a premier video the best literally the best. And you answered everyone's biggest question about the frontal brush guard, because no one asked that and you guys did. That's attention to details that everyone loves of the Gwagon

[@mirozlogleda5142]

Carlos Andrés Ceballos C. O

[@sickjohnson]

Honestly some of your best work Roman! You better hit a million subs so you can get one of these bad boys.

[@sickjohnson]

The Defender should fall in this class too?

[@TEDdotcom]

Pretty good launch coverage on the new G-Class. 👍🏽👍🏽

[@MultiPurposeReviewer]

Wait, hold up. "We improved the ground clearance." 30 seconds later, "We actually had to lower the car slightly, and there was no room for that, so we were able to then get higher ground clearance." Somebody please explain what the heck he just said.

[@HoosierDaddy_]

MultiPurposeReviewer + I think what he was trying to say is they lowered the center of gravity and there was no room for the front solid axle. So they put an ifs on the front which technically gave them more ground clearance. The diff won't be as strong, but it is tucked up higher now being an ifs.

[@uaedriver]

Air suspension. Driving on-road the car will lower it self, and the opposite for off-road.

[@MultiPurposeReviewer]

I guess. I don't think he could have explained it any worse though.

[@Indianahillclimber]

MultiPurposeReviewer like the hummer H1 has more ground clearance than the Ford Raptor yet is lower in height than than the Raptor. It's magic.. not really. I think you can figure it out from here.

[@MultiPurposeReviewer]

Lower in height and lowering a vehicle are different things. In the case of the Hummer, it means that the distance between floor and roof is less on the Hummer, so the bottom is higher and the top is lower than the Raptor.

[@bmwmsport11]

Luckily they’re not like Land Rover and design SUVs that can’t be fitted with anything other than street tires because the rims are so big/brakes too big to downsize wheels.

[@coejbee]

I've been driving solid axle Jeeps for 10 years. Not only am I a big fan of solid front axles, the G Wagon has always been my dream vehicle, but I'm not even bothered by IFS. I think Mercedes did excellent. Unless you're climbing obstacles in Moab, IFS is fine. I have plenty of Toyota friends and their IFS keeps up just fine with everyones Jeeps.

[@laurants]

That’s in Detroit. The car show is being held in a historic theatre they tore up to make into a parking lot. Because, you know, Detroit is doing so well.

[@MyAguillen]

Fan of this channel

[@BFord-ho3pq]

The Kardashians will love it!!!!

[@111danish111]

A G Wagon with an independent front suspension !! Something I thought would never happen . Reminded me of Grand Cherokee (WK) .

[@bradgt5130]

Not many people be flexing their g wagons

[@SpenserRoger]

It's kinda stupid they left the solid rear if they went to IFS. At least they didn't do mcferson lol

[@111danish111]

Well its still a body on frame vehicle . All of them have dual control arm front suspension and live solid axles on back except for Ford Expedition / Navigator which have IRS .

[@gasolara2002]

Could you possibly do a comparison of front legroom between the old and the new G-Class. You brought up a great point about barely fitting in it for a tall person with long legs.

[@dustyrusty7956]

Excellent coverage. However, Mikey looks to be clueless on the camera.

[@pontyva]

Dusty Rusty the lack of coordination seems to hv made him clueless..

[@myroadtours6147]

Any word on when they will start shipping these? All I could find was late this year.

[@cosmosdaniel1041]

i hope Mercedes Benz will offer a v8 diesel engine version with their standard v8 gasoline engine for UK / Europe / Caribbean & right hand drive models.

[@oliverwabwire2836]

There's a 290HP in-line 6 diesel thats already quite impressive on the S-Class. I believe this makes its way here too..

[@sidonronaldinho8713]

They also have a 340hp version of that engine....

[@oliy2543]

That green colour tho! Never thought it'd look so nice. Did the camera man call in sick last min and you just grabbed Mike from the street to film? hahahha

[@luisbarraza9709]

Hopefully lots of current owners will get the new one and flood the market with used ones so the prices come down on used ones and I can get one 🤗

[@kashiomodashio6455]

Great indepth video! G wagons are so gangsta!

[@TheBestOnMarz23]

He looks like a sophisticated Zach Galifianakis

[@mldnlt3maraud3r66]

That Schöckl Proved badge is very reminiscent of Jeeps Trail Rated badge. At least this one is not slapped on the side of every MB product with 4x4 or AWD.

[@DorienKalifornia]

"It's a box, with a big Mercedes star on it". Yep, pretty much sums it up.

[@albertptran]

Kudos to Roman for showing off the G

[@jaimeduncan6167]

The face of the guy when the marketing person tell him that they replaced the front solid axe to improve of-road capability : “what you just say?” That is the problem this days , people are too much concerned with access and believing. He should ask him how. It could be that it has cross linked air suspension or something similar, but if not ain’t clear that off-road will improve.

[@46rambo49]

it would really be nice if you could order one in the configuration you want and get it inside of one year? or get the "we have one in another state close to the configuration you are wanting"> for $200k , and how does that tail pipe coming out underneath work when you are in water up to the doors?

[@zissou6928]

That green is enchanting

[@tallll70]

i know one thing without looking or hearing anything...it will be expansive

[@jeebus2121]

Silly observation but the wing mirrors don't work for me. I know they're for aerodynamics and wind noise but their curvature badly clashes with the box theme of the rest of the vehicle.

[@djbear6919]

A Box with star logo on front ,well said😂

[@AA-jj1jm]

show more truck less Roman's face!

[@JoseMorales-wb6mz]

The headlights look very similar to the 2018 wrangler.

[@cosmosdaniel1041]

one of the weakness for me is the double wishbone suspension needed a 22" tyres .

[@OmaAlmo]

If they only kept the old front and the side exhaust it would've looked a lot better. Needless to mention the grill guards. Other than the it quite nice.

[@davidporowski9512]

add 2" wheelbase, get 4" passenger.switch to independent front suspension from solid axles// No longer a G wagon// avoid 2019 model.

[@boozer74]

Yeah. Nice interior. Oh wait Roman is in the shot again...

[@orlandogutierrez1234]

Did they do anything to the windshield to reduce wind noise?

[@far574]

I have i new G wagon ( not the 2019) and LOVE it.

[@far574]

Paul LeHavre my first G was my 2012 G550. Nothing like driving one. So many things I love about it. Specially how they look. Where I live they are somewhat common. 3 of us where along each other on the road the other day.

[@brandonjolley8806]

Bring on the AMG models!

[@Can-not.to-can]

I don't like how Benz removed the light strip under the headlights... Other than that, it's still beautiful truck.

[@JMNTN]

Now I really don't see who would buy this car, the previous at least stayed true to the original, now they tried to make it look more modern but it ends up like one of those retro hipster cars like the beetle or mini cooper

[@rahulrane1658]

Can we have some wood trims in there in place of carbon fibre?

[@Agent77X]

Love this vehicle especially it look! Only 31 colors to chose from? Pretty limited color choices huh?

[@kevinclavijo6954]

Am I the only one who is annoyed that the Wrangler has literally the same head light?!?

[@lawrence300d]

Ask if they added cup holders

[@lukasrovina]

I wish Land Rover would do something like this for the new Defender 🙏🏻❤️😢

[@baileal]

So Roman how was the front a rear seat space? Where you comfortable?

[@TFLtruck]

Roman says much bigger and yes he is as comfortable.

[@truthteller9743]

why did rain man just stay in the shot when they were looking at the hill climb badge?

[@aaronz9687]

You never see these on the road,very rare. I see 5 tesla's that cost 125k on the road all day everyday.

[@HarmanSingh-lq3yw]

What is the starting price of the car?

[@Raul619Meza]

Unfortunately, half the owners of these new G Wagons won't take them off road 😡

[@rogerj412]

I'm willing to say that number is more like 95% of them. Then again I wouldn't buy one new just to go offroad with.

[@vincenth7288]

If it was 50% cheaper more people would probably be bringing it off road

[@bradgt5130]

Roger J I’d say it’s more like 99% well of the newer ones. The older 90s 2 door models you can find a lot of offroad. As far as the new 150+ yeah don’t see them ever, I’m willing to be that non of the squared models except for the promo videos actually go off road.

[@CarNews24h]

Great! so beautiful!

[@jadrianprater5331]

5800 pound curb weight-375 pounds equals new curb weight.

[@rolandmorales7609]

any sunroof options?

[@chrisc3668]

"Does a 70's car comply with modern day safety regulations?" Why didn't he ask the Jeep reps if a 40's car complied with modern day safety regulations? Oh, that's right, he's got a gigantic bias toward Jeep which kept showing itself multiple times throughout this video. The Wrangler is a Timex, The G-Class is a rolex. Both do pretty much the same thing but one is comprised of MUCH BETTER build quality, luxury, and components

[@alexstern3583]

Took a page out of the land cruiser book. Longer, wider, ifs. Sad day for us solid axle fans

[@YouTuberyoutuber-qe6my]

Alex Stern yeeeah man I bet you the sales will decline.

[@bradgt5130]

Yeah because the people buying the g wagon really cared about offroad performance? I doubt any one who bought the squared version even knows what they have with the portal axles. If anything the only ifs land cruiser is sold in the states. The rest of the world still has the brand new 70 series solid land cruiser. America just doesn’t care about those though.

[@alexstern3583]

That's like saying people who buy baseball hats don't care about baseball. Well yea maybe that's true but doesn't stop them from buying the hat

[@kraenk12]

Alex Stern Sad day for people who like terribly performing cars on road.

[@alexstern3583]

kraenk12 Those people should have just got a ML in 1997 and never looked back. It's a damn military vehicle. That's why people love it. It was built for a single purpose and that's what attracts people to this day.

[@backcountryadventure1813]

How it can climb 100 percent wow

[@TheCooliodad]

I love it!

[@najdinmusic8646]

Nice car !!!!!

[@andrews6194]

Why did they have to switch to aluminum though!!! just to save weight,? and yet now you've taken away from the safety of the vehicle! they took a tank and turned it into a road car... Mercedes-Benz is my all time favorite car company but they are really just going down hill in some areas.

[@younesten5106]

I love this g class

[@icxcnika555]

Why doesn't audi or bmw make box style suv?

[@ParissaKhoury]

Is there android auto and apple car play in the new G Wagon?

[@vincenth7288]

eddie bangash Yes

[@ParissaKhoury]

VNCTH thanks

[@Texano5-0]

Look! It’s the more expensive Jeep.

[@rylama]

Let me know when you are going test driving so I can go too

[@aky19832001]

I've watched this channel long enough to know the face he makes when he realizes that's he's being feed bullshit. It's a headnod, with a smirk/SMILE and and abrupt..okay, so how's this car in terms or my favorite phraise, oh really, wow. Okay, fair enough.

[@pechmichaelchristina2640]

That rep didn’t know shit about the truck he’s selling. Roman took him to school.

[@ibraklay9343]

*Good willing am also going to buy one*

[@OxRashedxO]

Why it’s so expensive ? Is it reliable? Indestructible?

[@abhishetty2637]

OxRashedxO basically if Mercedes discontinued this car a mob of Rich people will kill everyone at Mercedes , so Mercedes can ask a million per car and people would still buy them

[@ricardocardenas6017]

amg?

[@SlowDriver2024]

You guys forgot to ask about the AMG G63...... :(

[@nickolasp7731]

it can climb a 100% grade? i find that hard to believe

[@donleamon8653]

I'm sure I'll be seeing these crawling the malls here in Scottsdale soon. Never to touch dirt. Sad.

[@tjantony3839]

Why is the hangover guy working for Mercedes?

[@mathewbsaenz]

"Okay..."

[@louisvuitton103]

im just waiting for this to come out so I can buy a 2013 without losing 15k right after this comes out. c.

[@garanincorp.5579]

This G class is extra gay!

[@richardhernandez3088]

Great video you guys little fan from Santa Ana California shut out to Richie if you guys can lol I have to say it the first 1 to say anything Yeah baby

[@ambee514]

Cool vehicle... I will never be able to afford one though lol

[@edcfyau]

solid to ifs? wtf?

[@rajtilaksingh8858]

Ed Y. Exactly it lost it DNA opp. To what said by Mercedes : DNA IS PERSEVERED

[@SDav21]

Ed Y. Why does it matter. It didn't affect the off road capability and this improves on road capability by a huge margin including lowering the centre of gravity.

[@jackmorrison5344]

tell me a bronco video is coming soon

[@johnnycake3915]

Jack Morrison probably in April if it's unvealed at nyias.

[@jackmorrison5344]

I've been waiting 20 years!!! It better be great, maybe with the new Bronco O.J will be able to get away.

[@JurassicTechLLC]

I'll take my 8 year old, 165k mile, whiskey dented, 4x4 Tacoma any day.

[@andrewgreene2475]

Anyone else notice how dusty the car was? Lol 6:58 you can see the dust marks. Come on Mercedes

[@elemental9039]

Why does this car presentation feel like that of apple🤔

[@kwoods3379]

Is that rust or corrosion at 9:10 !?!?

[@jloomis7]

I fail to understand this vehicle.

[@jloomis7]

Ye Wunt Thu I was saying that from a consumer perspective.

[@benjamin7114]

The cool factor is all there is .

[@bradgt5130]

For the upscale offroad person.

[@pechmichaelchristina2640]

j loomis7 for someone who wipes their ass with money.

[@toddlawson8122]

When did Mercedes hire Zach Galifianakis?

[@kellyfontes7757]

Roman I see you in there and trying to get in there and it is painful to watch. How do the people at MB develop a car that a person at your size can't get in there and be comfortable. No I can not afford it with a wife and 4 kids but if I could there is NO WAY I could buy that, especially at 6'3" 230 how could I get in there!! Hell my sons could not get in there. The SL has more front seat room than that nonsense.

[@HutchCanisDV]

Everytime they say "car" I become increasingly more triggered x,x

[@Albee166]

Good to know there isn't a v6 option

[@kraenk12]

Albert Yet.

[@kraenk12]

Paul LeHavre The G always had a 6-cylinder.

[@ddaley87]

How can he keep calling it a car??

[@DaMook82]

I like it :) .

[@albertptran]

This man sounds so sales rep. Just speak with passion or put someone on stage with real passion

[@joshakaoger69]

So the intake is right in front both sides 🤔 that seems dumb

[@SDav21]

Josh B But it's facing upwards whereas in other Mercedes road cars it faces forward. So even if water goes over the hood/bonnet water shouldn't get sucked in.

[@joshakaoger69]

SDav21 facing up or down or left or right either way it in the front and for that price it's stupid

[@SDav21]

Josh B They obviously took into account wading depth. They actually improved it. So it's better than the old....

[@joshakaoger69]

SDav21 maybe so but for that price it better have a Damm safari snorkel or something because the first thing that happens is it will be going down when going in water and those two huge bowls are waiting to take in water hahahaha

[@SDav21]

Josh B This will be more than enough for what 99% of people will use it for. If people want to take it way off road, they then just add a snorkel.
