It's the Mercedes that was born in the wild—and refined for the every day driving. The 2026 G-Class continues its legacy as an off-road icon with unmistakable design, cutting-edge tech, and unapologetic luxury. It’s built to conquer mountains, yet fit right in at Lake Shore Drive valet. No other SUV blends raw capability and prestige quite like this. With its squared-off silhouette, upright windshield, and bold stance, the G-Class stands out instantly. But beneath the heritage styling is a thoroughly modern platform. From the hand-assembled engine to the luxurious Nappa leather interior, everything is crafted to feel confident, tactile, and purpose-built. Power comes from a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 in the G 550, delivering 416 horsepower and 450 lb-ft of torque. The AMG® G 63 takes it further with 577 horsepower, AMG® Performance 4MATIC® all-wheel drive, and a throaty exhaust that announces your arrival. Despite its upright design, the G-Class accelerates from 0–60 mph in as little as 4.5 seconds. With a starting price of approximately $140,000, the 2026 G-Class G 550 will get you from zero to 60 mph in about 5.3 seconds and reach a top speed of around 130 mph.

Inside, the 2026 G-Class offers heated and ventilated seats, dual 12.3-inch displays, and active multicontour seating. New this year are expanded connectivity options, a refreshed steering wheel with capacitive touch controls, and additional ambient lighting customization. And yes—it’s still ready to get dirty. The G-Class includes three locking differentials, a two-speed transfer case, and exceptional approach and departure angles for off-road trails that would leave most luxury SUVs behind. This is the Mercedes you need in 2026 if your idea of prestige includes real grit—where every drive feels like a statement and every road is yours to shape.
