The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, or G-Wagen, is one of the most recognisable SUVs in the world, with a boxy shape that has barely changed in decades. In India it comes as the G450d diesel, the electric G580 and the wild AMG G63 V8, all with proper off-road hardware including three diff locks. Inside there are twin 12.3-inch screens and a Burmester sound system, and prices run from about Rs 2.90 crore to Rs 3.74 crore (ex-showroom).
The photos below take you around the G-Class inside and out, so you can see why it is as much a statement as it is an SUV. A well-kept used G-Class on Spinny costs a good deal less than a new one.
