How much does the 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class cost?

Prices have softened 5.15% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 285 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

If you find a listing below $60,227.22, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class a good car?

Yes — the 5/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction for this model year.

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class stands out because it combines old-school, military-derived toughness with unmistakable luxury. It also brings a standard-wheelbase, four-door layout, V8 power, four-wheel drive, and a boxy shape that helped define its identity. For you, that means this is a strong fit if you want character, capability, and presence over efficiency or value.

29.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so you still have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class was built around rugged hardware and specialized engineering, and the overview also points to costly upkeep and poor fuel economy. That combination suggests the vehicle can be appealing over the long haul if you stay ahead of maintenance, but it may be expensive to own if you buy one that has been neglected.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is not just age — it is the cost of keeping a complex, high-end SUV in consistently good condition.

What should I look for when buying a used 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class?

At 66.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a full vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. After that, prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on body condition, mechanical wear, and signs of expensive deferred maintenance.

Because this model is specialized and costly to maintain, you should pay close attention to how well the vehicle has been cared for rather than just how it looks in photos.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer's market, so you can shop carefully without expecting deep discounts everywhere.

• Deal availability: 29.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 285 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.15% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 66.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $60,227.22, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class's resale value?

The current average of $62,569 sits slightly below last year's $65,963.

That price movement suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more selectively now. For a future seller, it also means resale value will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and how well the vehicle has been maintained.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2016 if:

• 29.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 66.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.15% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of character, capability, and current market value, the 2016 is the one to focus on. If your priority is stretching your budget further, you may want to compare nearby years and look for the cleanest, best-priced example rather than chasing the newest badge alone.
