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

Prices have softened 6.22% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 280 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

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

Yes — the 5/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction. The 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class stands out because it combines military-rooted toughness with unmistakable luxury and presence, and its boxy shape and hard-core off-road ability are central to its appeal. You also get a powerful V8-focused lineup and rare character that few SUVs can match, especially if you value serious off-road hardware and a strong road presence. With 33.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, you 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 keeps the rugged character that made it famous, and the source notes that later G550 and AMG G63 models are more reliable than earlier versions. Even so, it remains expensive to buy and expensive to keep, with costly upkeep still part of the ownership experience. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is not just finding a clean example, but budgeting for the higher maintenance and repair costs that come with this kind of vehicle.

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

At 65% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report so you can separate clean examples from trucks with prior damage or repeated claims. After that, prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection, especially on a vehicle where upkeep can be costly and condition matters a lot. Focus on signs of wear, repair quality, and whether the truck has been maintained consistently, since a strong-looking G-Class can still hide expensive issues.

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

This looks like a moderate market, so you can be selective without expecting a deep bargain on every listing.

• Deal availability: 33.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 280 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.22% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 65.0% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $60,199, 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 $62,976 sits slightly below last year's $67,152.

That price movement suggests the market has cooled enough to give you a better entry point than a year ago, which can help if you plan to resell later. Because the model still carries strong appeal and a distinctive identity, well-kept examples should remain easier to market than ordinary luxury SUVs. If you buy carefully and keep maintenance records, you improve your odds of holding value better over time.

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:

• 33.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 65% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.22% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

The bottom line:

If you want the classic G-Class experience with strong owner satisfaction and a softer price than last year, the 2016 is a compelling choice. If you're more price-sensitive, you should still compare nearby years and focus on the cleanest, best-documented example you can find, since condition and maintenance history matter more here than chasing the lowest sticker price.
