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

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class offers these trims:

• G 550: The base gasoline model uses a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six rated at 443 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, with a mild-hybrid system, nine-speed automatic transmission, permanent 4WD, and locking front, center, and rear differentials. It suits you if you want the core G-Class experience with strong capability and the best-value position in the lineup.

What Mercedes-Benz G-Class do most buyers choose?

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class years with the most listings are 2022, 2024, and 2023.

Higher-volume years usually give you more choices in color, mileage, and condition, which makes it easier to compare listings and find the right match. They also tend to be the years shoppers return to most often because inventory is broad enough to support more competitive pricing.

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

Most model years in the table are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used because it points to softer pricing across much of the lineup. The newer years are also showing declines, though the changes are smaller than the steepest drops in the table. One older year is moving up, which shows that some G-Class examples can still command stronger pricing.

The 2014, 2025, and 2023 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
