[@aldairperez5464]

Glad that Mercedes didn't make any radical changes of its exterior styling (especially when it comes to aerodynamics). It looks recognizable and kept the design language of what the G-wagon looked like since it was introduced in the early 80s. More manufacturers should do this design approach if they don't want to completely change the look of a vehicle just because of the aerodynamics. One other example of this is the Ford F-150 Lightning still looks like an F-150, but the Silverado EV looks more like an Avalanche than the ICE version of the Silverado.
