Mercedes isn't new to making some kick-ass development and model highlight videos. In fact, they're probably the best at it.
There's the highlights of the W204 and current W205 C-Class, W123 and W124 E-Class, the W201 (190), R129 SL, W140 S-Class, and the overall history of the S-Class too.
There's heaps of videos out there - all showing you the small details that made each Mercedes different, and the tireless process of how they reached production spec.
Making a new car is a big job. So how the hell did Mercedes-Benz replace an out-of-date, yet still popular, dinosaur that had largely gone unchanged for 38 years?
Throw millions and millions of dollars worth of R&D at it, obviously.
No, but really, check out the vid up the top to find out - even if it is just probably pseudo marketing in disguise.
After 38 years of waiting, there shouldn't be a doubt that the capabilities of the new G-Class are anything less than spectacular.
But either way, while Mercedes has spent almost limitless amounts of time evolving the G-Class into something fit for the 21st Century, only time will tell if the new model features the same amount of childish charisma that made the original such a strong competitor. Otherwise, what's the point?
What do you think of the new Mercedes-Benz G-Class? Would you prefer one over a Cayenne or Range Rover? Tell us what you think in the comments.
