More than 33 years have passed since Gelenvagen appeared on the world market. During this time, the car did not undergo any fundamental changes: both the appearance and the already legendary four-wheel drive with 3 limited slip differentials stay in action. The queue for the purchase of a Mercedes Gelendvagen 2014-2015 does not decrease, therefore, the popularity of this model is not to be occupied. There is an explanation for this: about 5-6 thousand cars are produced annually.
In the article we will talk about those (albeit not global) changes that the 2014-2015 SUV underwent as a result of modernization.
- Before proceeding with the description, let's refresh the memory of the external parameters of the Mercedes-Benz G-class 2014 (in the quotes, the indicators of the Gelenvagen version from AMG are given). So, the length of the car is 4662 (4763) mm, the height is 1931 mm (1951 mm), the width is 1760 mm.
- Wheelbase indicator - 2850 mm; clearance - 210 (220 mm); the entry / exit angles are 36 (27) 0 and 270, respectively.
As we have already said, the externally updated Mercedes Gelandewagen 2014-2015 has largely inherited the features of its predecessor, including the notorious straightforward lines.
At the same time, during the restyling, the car was equipped with new LED running lights, which are now located under the familiar round headlights. The headlights, by the way, have become bi-xenon, adaptive; the mirrors have been updated, now they have received additional light elements that duplicate the rotation indicators.
The greatest changes, of course, occurred in the appearance of Gelenvagen AMG: for these cars, new bumpers were prepared with huge air intakes; there was a new design of the radiator grill; red brake calipers, and a giant 20-inch. disks. A car, the curb weight of which is more than 2500 kg, can be equipped with various power units and additional equipment - depending on this, the types of discs and tires offered for installation vary. For example, for basic configuration(not presented in Russia), rubber is provided, worn on alloy wheels(which are also available for other car versions) - 265/70 R16, 265/60 R18, 275/50 R20.
The rest of the exterior components of the SUV, beloved by many, remained unchanged, thanks to which the new Mercedes G Class 2014-2015 remained the same daring and aggressive: the unchanging design of the doors attached to the outside, perfectly flat surfaces on all sides of the body.
The body of Gelevagen, according to the tradition that has developed over the years, is mainly painted in white and black. At the same time, there are many who want to order other color options: today the most popular colors are “metallic”, “black magnetic”, “silver palladium”, “silver iridium”, “black obsidian”.
You can also purchase Gelenvagen, painted in the colors of "green periclase", "blue tanzanite", "indium gray", "brown peridot", "red tulite", "gray tenorite", "beige sanidin", "red mystic", "black mocha ”,“ black platinum ”,“ blue mystic ”,“ brown mystic ”,“ graphite ”,“ platinum ”.
The most significant changes have affected the interior of a huge car: now the interior is replete with many functions designed to provide optimal conditions for the driver and passengers - the interior of the Mercedes G-class 2014-2015 meets with luxurious materials (11 varieties of genuine leather, various types of wood), perfect assembly, and also interior detailing.
The multifunctional steering wheel has received an electric drive, there are two wells on the dashboard, between which there is an 11.4 cm display. The updated console houses a 17.8 TFT display, as well as most of the buttons used to control comfort functions. The control buttons that control the differential lock are located separately - they are at the driver's hand, in the most convenient place.
The presence of all kinds of systems is also striking: Command (combines navigation, interface, multimedia, USB, AUX, Bluetooth, network access), rear view cameras, parking sensors, climate control, front electric seats, massage, heating, ventilation and many others.
The trunk of Gelenvagen in its standard state has a rather modest volume - 480 liters, but with the rear row folded down, the car can accommodate 2250 liters. cargo.
Specifications
Specifications The Mercedes-Benz G-Class fully meets all the requirements set for the characteristics of modern SUVs, being in many respects reference for its class. Note that thanks to technical equipment Mercedes Gelenvagen is able to easily overcome water obstacles up to 600 mm, move on surfaces with a slope of up to 540, as well as conquer 800 climbs, which is inaccessible for the vast majority of modern SUVs. The SUV is equipped with an all-wheel drive system, as well as electronic system 4ETS, responsible for the distribution of traction forces. Add to that the presence of three electric, 100% lockable differentials; uncut rear and front axles, trailing arm suspension for the perfect off-road kit.
We have Gelendvagen available with 3 gasoline engines and 2 gearboxes: AMG Speed shift Plus 7G-Tronic and automatic transmission 7G-Tronic. The G500 received 5.5 liters. V8 (388 hp), working with a 7-speed automatic transmission. The Gelevagen will overcome the mark of 100 km / h in just 6.1 seconds, I have a maximum speed of 210 km / h. The fuel consumption in the combo mode is appropriate - about 15-20 liters.
The next grade from AMG - G63, has a 5.5 liter V8. (544 hp), working with 7 stupas. Automatic transmission. The first "hundred" is overcome in 5.4 seconds, the maximum speed is limited at around 210 km / h. Gasoline consumption in combo mode is 12-18 liters.
Video
Another modification from AMG was the powerful Gelenvagen G65 - this car has a V12 power unit with a volume of 6.0 liters (612 hp), which works with 7 stupas. Automatic transmission. The car accelerates to 100 km / h, almost like a sports car - in just 5.3 seconds, developing a maximum speed of 230 km / h. Fuel consumption - 13.7 liters. while driving on the highway, 22.7 liters. - in urban environments.
Price and configuration
To prevent talk that the price of the new Mercedes Gelendvagen is transcendental, recall that being the owner of a Mercedes-Benz G-class in our country is incredibly status and prestigious, and the famous saying that you have to pay for everything has not been canceled. So, the cost of Gelenvagen in domestic salons starts at 5.15 million rubles. - for a complete set of G500. More "advanced" Mers G63 AMG is estimated at 7.39 million rubles. And finally, for the most prestigious version of the Mercedes G65 AMG V12 2014-2015 they ask for 13.9 million rubles.
The 2019 Mercedes Gelendvagen is a beloved SUV. To some, he will seem too boring and gloomy, while others see in him a classic restraint and power. But the main difference between the car is precisely that the model has excellent power parameters. That is why on Russian market it is especially popular among residents of remote areas.
Mercedes Gelendvagen 2019 is often called a brutal car that is absolutely not suitable for girls. But lately, the fair sex can be seen more and more often at the wheel of a car. The changes in appearance made the model more personable. If earlier it was a completely militaristic style, now the model can be called an image model, with the help of which you can emphasize your special status.
Updates concern both external and internal parts. But if, thinking over the design of the case, the manufacturer pays more attention to the appearance itself, then in the cabin the main emphasis is on functionality, so that all modern features and innovations that provide a comfortable and safe ride are taken into account.
Exterior
Mercedes Gelendvagen 2019 release - a car of a brutal restrained look. At one time, these SUVs were used only for transporting the military, trips to hard-to-reach areas. Now they can be seen more and more often in cities.
The generation of modern cars differs primarily in functionality, although certain categories of cars also have a memorable original design. Here everything is extremely simple.
The new Mercedes (class G) of the latest model is made taking into account the general concept of the model range. The manufacturer has remained faithful to the general style. But at the same time, the style became a little less militaristic. Now it is just a representative car, which lacks any additional decorative elements. Simple understated elegance is what sets these machines apart from the crowd.
The color of Gelendvagen black has already become a real classic. There are other colors, though. The bodywork lacks any embellishments, but newer models offer the option of an optional panoramic roof.
The front part is quite impressive and has additional protection. Wheels and disks are made of durable material, large-sized.
Interior
New model has many additional modifications that have helped make the car not only more attractive inside, but also more reliable and safe.
In the new Helika, a photo of the salon can be taken from any angle, thanks to wider windows, the possibility of choosing a panoramic roof. The distinctiveness of the premium version is immediately evident. The leather interior fills the space with luxury.
The model has many improvements. First of all, the dashboard has become more convenient. Now there is only the most necessary, but at the same time the functionality has been expanded. More convenient and miniaturized wheel.
There is enough space in the back for three passengers. The seats are separated. They can be folded as needed to increase volume luggage compartment.
The front seats have many tilt modes, height adjustable. Additionally, you can equip them with a massager, ventilation. There are also many shelves, pockets in the salon so that you can place the necessary things.
Options and prices
Many are often interested in the question of how much a Mercedes Gelendvagen 2019 model year costs. The reason for the increased interest is that different generations of cars have different prices, the range is great.
The average cost of a new generation model in Moscow is 8.6-9.5 million rubles. At the same time, it can reach 12-13 million, if you additionally select accessories, make the car more comfortable (improved interior trim material, additional airbags, a more functional radio, ventilation and massage function for the first row seats, etc.).
Simply put, first you need to decide on a list of important options for yourself and then calculate the final cost of the car. In any case, it is much cheaper to buy a car with all the necessary options than to equip it separately.
If he talks about the models of previous generations, then they can be purchased for 5.5-6 million rubles. But they are less functional.
Moreover, even basic models have the necessary set of functionality and accessories:
- air conditioning;
- multimedia;
- navigator;
- front row seat heating system;
- parking assistant;
- Rain sensor.
The price in different cities of Russia may differ slightly. It all depends on the car dealership. Often people, seeking to save money, are looking for more budget options, but this is not entirely correct. The main reason why it is better to buy a car in a company showroom is to ensure that only original components are used. In addition, in this case, you can be completely confident in a cheap, quick repair, if any problems arise.

The car is famous for its powerful parameters all over the world, which is why it is preferred by those who have to often drive off-road. The technical characteristics of the car look like this:
- engine displacement up to 7.2 liters;

- 11.7 liters - average fuel consumption;

- 9-speed automatic transmission gear.
Depending on the version chosen, the parameters may differ slightly, but in general the characteristics do not change.
Mercedes Gelendvagen or in the original Mercedes Gelandewagen is a large SUV that has already become a cult for today, which in the jargon is often called "Gelik" or "Cube", as well as "Square", and in English G-Wagen or G-Wagon.
Surely many are well aware of the history of the appearance of Gelendvagen, but we still recall that the civilian version of the first generation car in the back of the W460 appeared back in 1979. It was immediately available in three- and five-door bodies, plus a version with a convertible fabric top.
If you open auto.ru or avito, you can find out that the price of such a Gelik varies from 300,000 to 1,000,000-plus rubles, depending on the year of manufacture, mileage, general condition, body type and engine.
If you come across a Mercedes Gelendvagen in the back of a W461 (his photo is presented below), then you should know that this is an ascetic version of the same first Gelik, but created specifically for the military and special services. Such a car can be compared with our UAZ, since both cars are still sold and have excellent cross-country ability.
But surely many are interested in more modern versions of Gelik. And then it's time to talk about the W463 version of the SUV, first introduced in 1990. It is this version that is being produced to this day, although over the years Gelandewagen has gone through several modernizations.
The manufacturer does not intend to deviate from the basic concept - the angular design, which has long become the hallmark of the Mercedes Gelendvagen, and the frame structure that provides excellent off-road potential. But the interior of the car is constantly being improved, as well as the technical stuffing.
The evolution of the Genandvagen salon
Since the appearance of the Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen W463, by 2016 Gelik has undergone updates eight times. And of course, during this time, he acquired many different modifications, special versions, etc. And it is worth talking separately about the versions from AMG.
In 2006, the Gelik G 55 AMG appeared, equipped with a 5.5-liter V8 compressor engine with 476 hp. (700 Nm), which soon after a small modernization was forced up to 500 "horses", and in 2009 the engine output increased to 507 forces.
Gelik 55 AMG
After the Gelendvagen update in 2012, the G55 version gave way to a more powerful one, under the hood of which there was a 544-horsepower (760 Nm) V8 twin-turbo 5.5 liter (this is the M 157 engine). It is paired with a 7-band automatic, providing a "square" acceleration to hundreds in 5.4 seconds. and a top speed of 210 km / h.
At the same time, the top-end, equipped with a 6.0-liter V12 (M 275) with a return of 612 hp, first appeared in the line. and 1,000 Nm of torque. This version is capable of accelerating to 230 kilometers per hour, and it takes the acceleration bar to the first hundred in 5.3 seconds.
Mercedes G 63 AMG
If you go to know how much Genendvagen costs, then its prices on the secondary housing range from 2,000,000 to 4,000,000 rubles for Gelik 5.5, from 5,000,000 to 9,000,000 rubles. (on average) for the G 63 and from 9,000,000 to infinity for the G 65. Tuning options for Gelik (for example) can cost under 35 million rubles or more.
And in 2015, Gelandewagen again experienced restyling, during which the engine on the G 63 was boosted to 571 hp. (760 Nm), and the top-end G 65 now produces 630 hp. It is clear that such a toy is not very cheap - even for the basic diesel Gelik 350 d in March 2016 they asked for a minimum of 6,370,000 rubles.
Gelendvagen G65
The gasoline G 500 cost from 8,050,000, the price for the G 63 started from 11,110,000, and for the G 65 - from 20,220,000 rubles. And then there is a very cool Gelendvagen, which is no longer produced. It was replaced by a similar design, but a more traditional version. You can buy it new for 18,400,000 rubles.
Many believe that a real Gelik should be black (so to speak, a classic black square), but for the AMG versions in 2015 it became possible to order a car in Crazy Color Edition in one of five bright color options: yellow, green, orange, red and purple. It is also considered fashionable to cover an SUV with a film, especially matte. We suggest looking at a photo of such Gelendvagens further.
Just a couple of years ago, the famous Gelendvagen celebrated the 38th anniversary of its production - this model in production since 1979.
You will not surprise anyone with such a period on the conveyor - many successful cars of Japanese manufacturers are also produced for a long time. But in Mercedes Gelendvagen the main thing is different - over the years, the design of the SUV has remained practically unchanged.
Yes, certain improvements and additions are being made to it, and in terms of decoration, the restyled 2015 model stands out strongly from the previous generation - but the general concept remains constant, and for an uninitiated person to distinguish the 463rd body from the previous one will be an almost insoluble task.
So, despite the somewhat outdated, according to critics, appearance and unsightly design, Mercedes-Benz does not plan to remove the G-class from production or make any radical changes to the design.
The best evidence of this is the model update that took place in 2015. Neither externally nor technically Gelik did not receive any major changes- all major improvements have been made to the interior and the line of more powerful and economical power units. The photo shows the version of the G63 AMG.
Exterior
As mentioned above, there is nothing new in the appearance of the restyled Mercedes Gelendvagen. All the same angular, brutal-looking body mounted on a powerful ladder-type frame is a legacy of the army's past of an SUV. The frame, consisting of U-profiles and side members, has an additional layer of polymer protection, which reliably protects the metal from premature corrosion and increases its rigidity.
The main difference between the Gelika body is modified shape of the front bumper, with air intakes located at the corners and new rear-view mirrors... In the lower part of the body, a rounded underbody protection is installed at the front.
Another difference is the new optics. SUV received LED daytime running lights integrated into rear bumper LED fog lights, as well as turn signals with illumination of the near space. Fog lights installed in the front bumper now have a "side light" option.
If outside the Mercedes Gelendvagen gives the impression of a utilitarian all-terrain vehicle, then inside there is an atmosphere of luxury and comfort, second only to the Bentley Bentayga.
Natural leather, wood, high-quality fabrics, polished metal and carbon are widely used in interior decoration. Comfortable front seats have a pneumatic support function and electric height and tilt adjustment with memory.
There are also three full-fledged seats at the back, but due to the design, there is not as much space as it seems. All the seats are electrically heated already as standard, but their shape is far from ideal - the lack of lateral support, low headrests and flat cushions will not allow you to relax in long journey... In this regard, the Mercedes G-Class is inferior to modern crossovers such as the Range Rover Velar.
Dashboard classic type, with two shafts and a four-spoke multifunction steering wheel. The buttons located on the steering wheel can not only control devices and regulate the operation of the multimedia system, but also receive incoming calls, control on-board computer and much more.
On the center console of a somewhat archaic form, there are airflow deflectors and control keys for on-board systems. Above it is a 7.0-inch remote display of the latest COMAND Online multimedia system with an additional controller on the armrest. It includes a USB CD / DVD player, a wireless interface, an 80 GB hard drive, phone connectivity, and an internet browser.
The surround sound system from Harmon / Kardon and the interior lighting Ambient Lighting are already installed in the standard version of the Gelik, as is the THERMATIC dual-zone climate control.
Specifications
The main difference between the updated Mercedes Gelendvagen is new gasoline and diesel engines.
- G350... This version is equipped with a 3.0-liter OM642 6-cylinder V-turbo engine. It is capable of developing a capacity of 245 liters. with. and reach a torque of 600 Nm, and a top speed of 192 km / h, acceleration - 8.8 s.
- G500 equipped with an atmospheric gasoline engine M176 V8 with a volume of 4.0 liters. Power is equal to 422 liters. with., and the torque reaches 530 Nm. Maximum speed- 210 km / h, acceleration - 5.9 s.
- The version G63 AMG with the M157 DE55LA biturbo engine with a volume of 5.5 liters, it was possible to squeeze out 571 hp. and reach a torque of 760 Nm. With this engine, the SUV is able to reach a speed of 210 km / h.
- The most charged version is the G65 AMG. The power of the 6-liter twin-turbo unit M279 KE60LA V12 has been increased to 630 hp. sec., and the torque is phenomenal 1000 Nm. The speed limit is limited to 230 km / h, acceleration - 5.3 s.
Despite the fact that all motors, without exception, became at least 7-10% more powerful, the engineers managed to achieve fuel efficiency. For example, with the new engine, the fuel consumption of the G500 is 12.4 l / 100 km versus 17.6 l for the previous version.
Gelik is equipped with two variants of 7-speed automatic transmissions:
- Models G350 and G500 are equipped with 7G-TRONIC PLUS.
- For the top versions of the G63 AMG and G65 AMG, a more powerful AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC gearbox is offered. Its main feature is three modes of operation, one of which allows you to manually shift gears using paddle shifters.
Both transmissions are equipped with low gears and differential locks to give the SUV a confident feel on any terrain.
Options and prices
The price of the Mercedes-Benz G-class depends on the trim levels - they differ among themselves by the power unit, transmission and a number of options.
G350 d
The base is the G350 d with a 3-liter turbodiesel and 7G-TRONIC PLUS - it will cost the buyer the price from 6.7 million rubles.
G500
A more powerful version of the G500 with the same transmission and a petrol 4-liter engine will cost already from 8.38 mln rub. For these two models, an additional Life Style package of options worth about RUB 1 million is offered, which includes 19-inch wheels, heated steering wheel, tinted windows, an anti-theft system, comfortable front seats, a parking package with blind spot monitoring, a sunroof and chrome package.

Video
Mercedes-Benz G-class is the most expensive serial crossover officially presented on the Azerbaijani market. But 350 thousand dollars for the G 65 AMG version is not the limit. We have collected the top tuned "Heliks", the cost and equipment of which amazed us.
There is hardly any rational motivation in buying Gelandewagen. You will not save a single drop of fuel (but rather the opposite), the smoothness of the ride will not lull you and your companions, and the agility and drive guaranteed by truly sporty Mercedes-Benz models should not be expected from the most incredible tuning of the G-klasse. However, the brutal and angular forms of "Gelendvagen" have their own charm and their own charm, and the additional power and exclusivity of the external appearance have not harmed a single car.
GSC // Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG
Price upon request from the manufacturer.
What is in the tuning kit... A complete set to satisfy the fantasy of the Gelandewagen owner. German Special Customs suggests re-tuning the ECM and adding its own tuned exhaust to make the G-Class a little faster. In addition, the speedometer needle no longer rests on the limiter, but describes full circle up to 320 km / h.
The exterior package includes wide front and rear bumpers, a new logo in the center of the grille, widened wheel arches with rectangular profiles, LEDs in the bumper and under the headlights, carbon parts on the hood and fenders, and side mirrors with carbon fiber coating.
The already mentioned customized exhaust ends with a pair of rectangular tubes in front of each of the rear wheels, and the black 23-inch rims themselves are designed and made directly in GSC. The final touch is the leather interior and a set of interior tweaks with carbon fiber details.
What's on the way out... After the work of the craftsmen from GSC, the V8 power in the G 63 AMG exceeded 615 hp. - the standard output of the G 65 AMG, equipped, by the way, with a V12 engine, and began to be 620 hp, but about dynamic characteristics one can only guess. The car has become a real show stopper, and there is hardly even one of the same in your yard. But the orange-red tuned in the GSC Gelandewagen has definitely ceased to be the brutal car of the lads from the 90s.
G 63 AMG 6x6
What's in the tuning kit. This is how Mercedes-Benz sees a real SUV. With a 6x6 drive, a reduction gear, five differential locks, portal axles, a tire pressure control system and a special impenetrable suspension. Probably at $ 670,000 (roughly what the G 63 AMG 6x6 "assembled" costs), the owner will want not only unlimited off-road potential, but also a comfortable and exclusive trimmed interior. Get it: Even the loading dock is finished in massive bamboo and the interior is finished in designo leather in red or light brown. In addition, all four freestanding chairs are electrically adjustable, heated and ventilated.
What's the output. an SUV at a cost equal to three and a half "regular" G 63 AMG is not afraid of mud, sand or swamps. And if all the others are tuned Mercedes-Benz G-class at least a little, but similar to each other, then the G 63 AMG 6x6 - exclusive car 100%. True, for "exclusive" money.
Carlsson // Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG 6x6
What's in the tuning kit... According to the authors of the project, the 6-wheel all-terrain vehicle Mercedes-Benz AMG received a rough exterior, exclusive interior trim and a boosted engine. As for the latter, everything is clear: by reconfiguring the control unit, it was possible to remove an additional 106 hp, which were very useful for a 4-ton SUV.
The interior of a standard car was already distinguished by finishing with expensive materials, so here it is appropriate to recall the Carlsson motto "The Best Way" (" In the best way") and about the" good enemy ".
The exterior of the G 63 AMG 6x6 Carlsson was also edited, but in the press release Carlsson was silent about the specifics, and with the naked eye the differences from Mercedes-Benz are hardly distinguishable. Perhaps the new wheels and a radiator grille, bearing the emblem of the tuner-manufacturer in the center.
What's on the way out... Of the whole range of modifications offered by Carlsson, the most valuable is the CK63 Performance Kit, which adds 106 hp to the car. This module will not damage the 3.8-ton vehicle and will make the joint creation of Mercedes-Benz and AMG even faster.
ART G Streetline 65 Wide Body // Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG
The tuning kit includes... As the name implies, the mission of the kit is to make the body of the G-Class much wider. For this, an impressive front bumper with an integrated spoiler, footrests with LED backlight, wide arches with a "step", as well as a rear bumper with integrated lamps (fog and reverse) hidden behind the longitudinal bars of the gratings.
The kit also includes LED taillights and xenon headlights, ART's own forged wheels, and a tuned exhaust system with 6 stainless steel pipes. In the cabin, there is nothing out of the ordinary: completely leather trim of everything that only a passenger's or driver's hand touches.
The only exception. These are the multimedia system monitors sticking out of the headrests of the front seats. So that this whole widebody car can move quickly, ART engineers are offering to help increase engine power by recalibrating the engine and a new exhaust system, as well as additional cooling for the engine.
What's on the way out... A very non-trivial project, because in addition to the typical set of "other bumpers, nets and headlights", ART has enriched the G-class with wide body panels, as well as excellent engine power indicators. The top variant based on the G 65 AMG received an increase of 150 hp, reaching 750 hp. and 1000 Newtons per meter of torque!
Brabus 800 "iBusiness" // Mercedes-Benz G 65 AMG
The tuning kit includes... They entered Вrabus from an unusual side. If most tuners think G-Class owners lack originality appearance, then this part of the Bottrop craftsmen was practically ignored. Having taught the motor itself powerful G-class pumping out 800 hp, they turned the SUV into a mobile office crammed with gadgets. Chief among these, the Mac Mini, is used with the Apple TV Box and Power Amplifier.
A specially designed center tunnel extends from the front seats to the top edge of the rear seat backrest. It houses a refrigerator for soft drinks, multimedia components, including a docking station with built-in chargers for iPad mini and iPod, plus hidden storage space for keyboard and mouse to connect to Mac Mini.
The main screen for displaying multimedia information is a 15.6-inch LCD monitor in the ceiling, which can be rotated and completely retracted. There is even a high-speed modem and wireless LAN for connecting to the Internet.
In addition to the "multimedia" tuning, Brabus added wide arches to the car, which house 23-inch wheels, adjustable Bilstein dampers, a completely redesigned and finished in leather and Alcantara interior and many other interesting details.
What's on the way out... It's hard to imagine a more powerful and luxurious place to play Angry Birds. Even if you have $ 1,170,000, but no tablet, we hasten to please: iPad Mini is already included in standard equipment Brabus 800 "iBusiness".
Mansory Gronos // Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG
The tuning kit includes... First of all, a set to increase the power to 814 hp. from the standard 544. In fact, this is a new engine: Mansory only left the cylinder block, replacing the block head, crankshafts, pistons, connecting rods and other components. The tuners also installed a new exhaust system, ending with tailpipes leading out in front of the rear wheels.
The hood with a wide air intake, a stylish "chubby" radiator grille, new bumpers and 23-inch wheels with Dutch Vredestein tires designed by Giugiaro are responsible for the spectacular appearance. LED optics and wheel arch extensions complete the picture. The Mansory Gronos interior has been redesigned with carbon fiber inserts and leather upholstery, a new steering wheel and other minor details.
What's on the way out... Nothing unusual, just Gelandewagen - the owner of the most charged motor from our review. And at the same time, the V8 from the G 63 AMG version is taken as a basis, and the final power exceeds the V12 modified by the competitors from the G 65 AMG, the development of which in Mansory is about to finish.
Prior Design Widebody // Mercedes-Benz G-Class
The tuning kit includes... As the name of the company implies, the guys are exclusively interested in design. No kits for changing the clearance, modified ECUs and additional rear axles... Exterior styling only! The Prior Design G-class exterior is offered with a set of straightforward bumpers with integrated optics, front and rear fenders, and a stunning multi-slotted hood. The above price includes 23-inch rims complete with tires, LED headlights and fog lights in the front bumper, and branded exhaust systems.
What's on the way out... Mercedes-Benz G-class is a car, if for racing, then certainly not asphalt. And he doesn't really need a large-scale "livestock" under the hood. But after 800-horsepower G-classes from Brabus, Mansory or ART, Prior Design's creation looks a little faded - despite the bright body kit, you realize that inside it is a regular G-class, maybe even a 211-horsepower base G350 BlueTec for some $ 100,000 ...
Vorsteiner // Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG
Price tuning kit unknown.
The tuning kit includes... Vorsteiner are far from the easiest tuning masters in Germany. In addition to the usual studio for the refinement of "Germans" (BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche) and Range Rover, they also have a special unit Vorsteiner Nero for fine-tuning exotic car brands such as Bentley, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Maclaren and Rolls-Royce.
But despite the wide portfolio of brands, Vorsteiner refinements are neat and exceptionally stylistic. A set was prepared for the G-class ... wheel rims! And that's all. The wheels are really good: 22 inches, matte, black, with excellent Pirelli Scorpion tires. However, Vorsteiner employees have already written on their official website that the aero kit for Gelandewagen is about to be ready and there is very little time left to wait.
What's on the way out. Perfect option for those who want to hide from others the fact of tuning their G-class. If it's no joke, then correctly selected wheels make up 50% of the appearance of the car. And I am sure that many of our readers will agree that the real G-class does not need either a bright red body, or wide arches, or even more so an 800-horsepower engine. Everything that is needed was installed into it at the factory, and all that needs to be added is two pairs of large and exclusive discs.
