New Mercedes-Benz's New G-Class Still an OG Off-Road.

Each generation of G-Wagen is tested in Schöckl, a mountain near Graz in Austria. The latest incarnation of luxury SUVs had no problem crossing the mountain track, thanks to a series of off-road tricks on the sleeves. The basics, however, are worth noting first, Ground clearance of almost 9.5 inches The load capacity of the water up to almost 28 inches deep, 4 inches more than the previous generationnIncrease of the exit angle of 30 degrees and approach angle of 31 degrees Increase of the opening angle of 26 degrees Suspension spring and rebound rates of 3 to 4 inches both in the front and rear Mercedes-Benz has adopted some features and specifications for the G-Wagen to be even more capable.

These updates include Mode G This automatic driving mode will be activated whenever one of the three Differential Blocks is activated or when the low range is activated. This adjusts the damping of the chassis and the response of the steering, accelerator and transmission to maintain speed and predictability. New 9-speed A new nine-speed automatic transmission allows a much wider range of gear, which includes a much lower low-range ratio. The transmission should also improve fuel economy. The cameras are all over the G-Wagen, they offer views of obstacles that are otherwise out of sight and require an observer.
