How much does the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class cost?

Prices have softened 2.09% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 825 listings available, which suggests you have a workable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class a good car?

Yes — it earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.5/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Performance, and Technology.

The 2025 G-Class stands out because it blends unmistakable styling with strong capability and luxury features. It is especially appealing if you want a vehicle that feels equally at home as a status symbol and as a serious off-road SUV.

The main trade-offs are that it is rougher around the edges than other luxury SUVs, and it is not especially practical for everyday hauling. The expert notes also point to limited cargo space, uncomfortable seats, and poor value for money.

31.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class reliable?

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

The 2025 G-Class is presented as a durable, capability-first luxury SUV with updated powertrains and tech, and the expert notes emphasize that it remains a real off-road machine rather than just a style piece. Its powertrain setup and four-wheel-drive hardware support that reputation, while the refreshed cabin tech helps it feel current.

The performance notes also point to a mild-hybrid setup and a nine-speed automatic, which should help the drivetrain feel modern and responsive. Mercedes also includes a four-year, 50,000-mile new-vehicle warranty, which is a useful ownership cushion for a high-priced SUV.

For used buyers, the biggest long-term risk is that ownership costs can stay high once warranty coverage ends, especially if you plan to keep the vehicle for many years.

What should I look for when buying a used 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 97.1% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report on any candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially because this is a high-cost SUV where repairs can be expensive. Focus on overall condition, signs of hard use, and whether the vehicle has been maintained consistently.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base G 550 gets 19-inch wheels, while 18-inch wheels with all-terrain tires and 20-inch wheels are also available; AMG G 63 models come standard with 20-inch wheels, with 22-inch wheels and carbon-fiber exterior trim optional.
• Powertrain: The G 550 uses a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six with 443 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, while the AMG G 63 keeps a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with 577 hp and 627 lb-ft of torque; both use a mild-hybrid system, a nine-speed automatic, and permanent four-wheel drive with locking front, center, and rear differentials.
• Safety package: Standard equipment includes forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, park assist, a 360-degree camera system, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, safe exit assist, and traffic sign recognition. The 2025 updates add route-based speed adaptation, automated lane centering, and an emergency-stop feature.
• Infotainment: You get dual 12.3-inch screens, standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and MBUX with augmented reality navigation and strong voice recognition. The system also includes an off-road menu and a Transparent Hood camera view.
• Fuel efficiency: EPA fuel-economy ratings were not available at the time of publication.

Which 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class trim should I buy?

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is offered in 2 trim levels: G 550 and AMG G 63.

Here's the short version:

• G 550: This is the better-value choice if you want the G-Class experience without paying for the AMG upgrade. It still gives you the distinctive design, strong off-road hardware, and the refreshed inline-six powertrain, so it covers the core appeal of the model well.
• AMG G 63: Choose this if you want the most powerful and most dramatic version. It adds the V8, stronger acceleration, and the new AMG Active Ride Control suspension, which gives it a more adjustable and more polished feel on the road and at speed off pavement.

The safety package is strong across the lineup, with standard driver-assistance features on both trims.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 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: 31.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 825 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.09% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 97.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $196,376, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class's resale value?

The current average of $196,376 sits slightly below last year's $200,578.

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

Because the G-Class has strong brand appeal and a distinctive identity, well-kept examples should continue to attract attention. But the high purchase price and ownership costs mean buyers will still be selective, so presentation and history matter a lot.

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

Is the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class safe?

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) hadn’t released safety ratings for the G-Class at the time of publication.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard driver-assistance features include forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, park assist, a 360-degree camera system, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, safe exit assist, and traffic sign recognition. Mercedes also includes Pre-Safe, which can prepare the vehicle for an imminent crash by tightening seatbelts and closing windows.

For 2025, the G-Class adds route-based speed adaptation for adaptive cruise control, automated lane centering, and an emergency-stop feature that can bring the vehicle to a stop if the driver becomes incapacitated.

Should I buy a 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2025 if:

• 31.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 97.1% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.09% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2025 model brings updated powertrains and tech, including the refreshed G 550 inline-six and the new AMG Active Ride Control setup on the G 63.

The bottom line: If you want the most current version of the G-Class with the latest mechanical and tech updates, the 2025 model is the one to target. If your priority is simply getting into a G-Class for less money, a nearby model year may be worth considering, but the 2025 gives you the freshest setup and the strongest mix of capability and modern features.
