Why it stands out

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class stands out because it combines the old-school appeal of a military-grade exterior with the comfort and technology of a modern luxury SUV. Mercedes redesigned the G-Class in 2019, and this generation is described as slightly larger than the original, lighter model for model, and much plusher inside. It also brought a new electric power steering system, many driver-assist and safety features developed for other Mercedes models, and the latest MBUX infotainment system with two 12.3-inch displays integrated into a flat-panel dashboard.

For buyers, the 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is appealing because it still delivers the model’s signature off-road capability while projecting the kind of status that has made it a road-going symbol of wealth. The G550 uses a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 with 416 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, and Mercedes says it can reach 60 mph in 5.6 seconds. The AMG G 63 raises the stakes with 577 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque and a 4.5-second zero-to-60 time. Mercedes also offers extensive customization options, including G Manufaktur custom finishes and special trim packages.

The tradeoffs are just as clear. Fuel economy is poor, with the G550 rated at 14 mpg city, 17 highway, and 16 combined, while the G63 returns 13 city, 16 highway, and 14 combined. The G-Class is also expensive to buy, maintain, and insure, and the limited-production nature of the model means accurate reliability data is hard to find. Even so, its combination of iconic styling, serious capability, and high-end luxury is what makes the 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class distinctive.
