All-new Mercedes-Benz G-Class will make its world premiere in Detroit



Shortly after releasing the interior gallery of the next-generation G-Class, Mercedes-Benz will unveil the car in full on 15 January 2018 at the 2018 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

In a teaser video titled “Stronger Than Time | The Amber Cube”, it featured the first-generation G-Class fossilised in an amber cube hinting at the model’s timelessness. Earlier, Mercedes-Benz said the G-Class has “changed very little” but the DNA of the legendary off-road vehicle lives on.

The new-gen G-Class also gets a significantly roomier interior with key measurements as below:
