This bold evolution marks a historic milestone, seamlessly blending the legendary character and off-road prowess of the G-Class with the cutting-edge innovation of electric mobility.
The G 580 with EQ Technology seamlessly fuses the legendary toughness of the G-Class with the innovation of Mercedes-Benz’s advanced electric drivetrain. Retaining its iconic off-road dominance, this fully electric model delivers an exhilarating yet silent driving experience — a true evolution that stays faithful to the G-Class legacy. More than just a technological milestone, the G 580 embodies Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to sustainable luxury, combining zero-emission mobility with uncompromising performance and presence.
Electric Mobility, G-Class Power
At the heart of the G 580 with EQ Technology is a state-of-the-art electric powertrain built around a high-voltage modular lithium-ion battery. Comprising 216 cells across 12 modules, the battery offers a usable energy capacity of up to 116kWh — all while weighing just 680kg. This advanced setup delivers an impressive all-electric range of up to 473km (WLTP), ensuring a confident, long-distance driving experience that combines the unmistakable power of the G-Class with the efficiency and innovation of electric mobility.
Innovation Meets Intuition Inside
Inside, the G 580 with EQ Technology features dual 12.3-inch displays, one as a fully digital, customizable instrument cluster, and the other as a central touchscreen for infotainment. Both are powered by the intuitive Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) system, offering advanced voice control, seamless wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an immersive Burmester 3D surround sound system.
This new-generation G-Class doesn’t just meet expectations, it redefines them. Whether navigating city streets or conquering rugged terrain, the G 580 is engineered for agility, traction, and control in every environment, delivering a driving experience that’s as refined as it is capable.
The Off-Road Cockpit: Innovation Where It Matters Most
Engineered for extreme terrain, the G 580 with EQ Technology is equipped with Torque Vectoring, allowing precise distribution of torque to each individual wheel. This ensures optimal grip and stability, especially during tight cornering or while navigating uneven, off-road surfaces.
Taking capability to new heights, the G 580 introduces groundbreaking features such as G-STEERING, which enhances agility by turning the wheels at different speeds — enabling anything from subtle maneuvering to controlled oversteer in complex terrain. Meanwhile, G-TURN allows the vehicle to rotate in place up to 720°, a revolutionary function designed for tight off-road situations on loose or slippery ground.
Adding to the immersive experience is G-ROAR, which gives the all-electric G-Class a bold, signature sound presence both inside and out. And for added safety, the Acoustic Vehicle Alert System (AVAS) comes standard, ensuring the vehicle remains audible to pedestrians and cyclists when G-ROAR is disabled.
Distinctive AMG Line Styling
Elevating its commanding presence, the G 580 with EQ Technology comes equipped with the AMG Line package — infusing the iconic G-Class silhouette with a bold touch of sporty sophistication. Exterior highlights include brake callipers with Mercedes-Benz lettering, a striking radiator grille in silver chrome, and a silver chrome bumper insert that adds refined contrast and visual impact.
Inside, exclusive black AMG floor mats underscore the cabin’s premium feel, while the vehicle’s muscular stance is perfected by 50.8cm (20-inch) AMG 10-spoke light-alloy wheels — a true statement of performance and design.
Luxury That Moves with the Times
While the G 580 pioneers new ground with its advanced electric powertrain, it remains deeply rooted in the timeless luxury and iconic design that define the G-Class. The refined and spacious cabin seamlessly blends premium materials with intuitive digital interfaces and cutting-edge connectivity features, ensuring that every journey, whether navigating city streets or tackling rugged terrain, is nothing short of a first-class experience.
