The '25 Electric G Wagen g580 is putting down 579 horsepower and 859 lb-ft of torque from 116kwh battery and 4 electric motors with 4 transmissions.

I need 110k rebate on the G wagon
Why didn't they call it the E-Wagon?
imagine someone beeps at you at a light and you hit the 360 on them lmao 🤣🤣
Lmao
"You say something, cuh?"
“THE FUCK YOU SAY ABOUT ME YOU LITTLE SHIT!?”
Like when you get hit with a turtle shell or banana peel in Mario kart
You mean a 180?
This is infinitely cooler than the cyber truck.
Literally everything is cooler than the cyberturd
@@wallbangerzsports facts haha
Cooler - no. Better - yes.
@@wallbangerzsportsdrive this and a cyber truck around town and see what gets more attention.
@@2cats1guy. Better in terms of what..??? Uggggliness..🤢🤢🤢
If someone keeps flashing you, wait till you get to the traffic stop, do the G-turn and flash em back
That will be so hilarious to see lol
Kinda reminds me of Cells *BEEP BEEP* from team four star😂
The Tokyo drift song with the mercedes chime was hilarious 😭
10:03 saying Vive la France and adding a picture of Quebec City is insane lmao
😂🤣
never used the G-spot feature 🙄
Couldn’t find it. I heard the g spot doesn’t even exist
Easy to miss.
That's what she said
Have you tried turning on and off again?
"Vive la France, Yuri" - editor inserts picture of Quebec City lmao
Editor is unhinged this review
Lmao
Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that
Do you want riots in the streets of Paris? Because this is how you get riots in the streets of Paris. (Among many other reasons)
@@TheStraightPipes fucking killing it!
The SLS had an electric version with 4 individual motors per vehicle as well!
Yeah I thought the same when they mentioned it
Was it ever even put into production? I just remember it being the color of a yellow highlighter and then never seeing one or reading about one.
@@scottlauren3145 Never made it to production technically, but I believe 9 were sold to customers
@@1nmasuku There was the SLS AMG E-CELL prototype in 2011 and then the SLS AMG Electric Drive in 2013. Only 9 of the Electric Drives have been made.
Wow, didn’t know that!
I’m okay with this bc Mercedes still offers a gas alternative. This is there if you want it- the tank turn feature is also really cool!
Exactly
Seat warmer and massagers need to be set to “Hey Mercedes, turn on G-Spot”
I’ll take this over a Cybertruck!
this prolly cost double
@@MrYgfamily21and it will be worth every penny.
I’ll take two cyber trucks over this
the cybertruck is ugly asf
Who is giving? I'll take either one
Totally enjoy your videos. Keep coming back to this channel. Thanks guys!
The charger box looks like a AirPod case 😂
Came to comment this
Suspension components have left the chat.
G63 flying through the air tho
Good work guys, informed n nteresting review. Thanks
Nice shout out to Out of Spec 👌
3:58 this was sick. Not going to lie.
They just copied China's EV that's been able to do this for years. It just turns a lot faster than BYD's cars
@@revamp8835 that's fine if they copied it. Still cool
The excess bulge on the EQG is so brawny but yet minimal! I'm excited to see these league-of-their-own G classes
They need a g-spot mode lmfao
You guys should play Hans Zimmer “No time for Caution” every time when doing a ‘G-turn’
So technically it doesn’t weigh 3,5t, it is the maximal weight of it with luggage and people included
Sorry!
@@TheStraightPipes *Sorry EH
The G-Wagen wave is throwing a wad of cash at the windshield 😂😂
That G63 though, man!
Ioniq 5N review ASAP PLEASE! Can't wait to watch
This blows the Cybertruck out of the water!
What's a Cybertruck?
Yes, but you can probably get 2 Cybertrucks for the price of G580
@@cbotten106glad you don't know what a Cybertruck is. It's an EV truck from Tesla and it's just plain atrocious.
@@nemomilo333you can actually use the G tho… for everything. And it doesn’t die from a carwash
@nemomilo333 but who would want two, most people want zero.
Wow... that thing my old Tyco R/C cars used to do to 360 is now on cars... what a time to be alive! lol
True
That four electric motors system likely based on the SLS tech decade ago. I assume they had improved it more by adding the low gear to fit for the off-road.
This looks awesome!!!
I would be so mad if I bought an EQS SUV and then this came out. This is 100% better
It’s way worse in many metrics: less range, more wind noise, less AC charging (11 vs 22 kW), less top speed. But still I would always get a G580 instead of a EQS. 😅
@@Helmigurt eqs and eqe aren't even electric versions of the gls and gle. They are each categorized a size smaller
Always fun to watch you 2, the image thrown when you mentioned your in France is actually Fairmont Le Château Frontenac in Quebec. I guess you 2 need to head out there at some point. ;) Very cool use of 4 motor and dual range.
Heheh
This will be fun when all 4 transmissions go out
I just got my SL500 transmission fixed…and it was only 1 😅
But does someone who can afford this really care?
Says someone who’s never owned a Mercedes.
Or just two
@@itsreallyjakub broooooo any 500 is so underrated, i want one so bad. I remember the first time a had to double take a sl500--sleeper fr
That's friggin awesome
That paint!!!
Rivian had this 360 feature as well, they called it "tank turn". Company removed it later because it caused too much damage to trails.
Mercedes be like: „Amateurs!“
Just watched to look at the matte blue ->
That tank turn feature isn't just a gimmick but has real utility in the field.
8000 pounds! Wow. Imagine the torque spec on those axle nuts.
Byd suv can do tank turn that thing was so cool
W H A T. Those Spins with the Individual Wheel Drive ARE SO UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME. 🔥
Don’t know what you guys did but looking at your windows as you drive this thing almost seems like looking at screens. Seems you guys were going pretty fast to gat that effect. Amazing video as always
That bih got some POWERRRRRRRRRRRR
I like the matte silver plastic over gloss black in the interior. Carbon fiber not so much.
The Chateau Frontenac on that picture is not in France >.>
ha! I was thinking the same thing!!! Vive la France... except in Quebec.
@@petertsolymosieditor be like “hehehe.gif”
This car hits the spot!
You could say it hits the ... G Spot
Very cool. Imagine the repair costs on that MB!! 4 motors, 4 transmissions.
Boys G-Turn in the SNOW!!!!!
If the future cars will sounds like this I’m happy
Very Cool!! Retro Electric ⚡️
Can you turn the synthesized "engine/ exhaust" noise off?
I can't believe I'm saying this but I would genuinely have this over any other G wagon. In fact I feel like this is a perfect daily car if you could afford it. One of these and a proper NA sports car for the weekends? Couldn't get better imo
Love when you guys almost match outfits
Wise choice making it look like a regular g wagen
Ich musste es zweimal durchlesen, um wirklich zu bemerken, dass Sie das richtig geschrieben haben (anstelle von „Wagen“).
Just curious does Mercedes flight you guys out in coach or first class?
Every manufacturer flies business if it’s more than 5 hours or to a different continent so yes
If it makes you feel any better, I can't sleep on any flight so I just sit or lay there attempting to sleep for 8 hours then get to the hotel and sleep for an hour and zombie through the rest of the trip only to do the same on the return flights - Jakub
Thanks for that video. I likeit a lot.
Actually this is the best electric Mercedes-Benz at the moment. Ups.. wrong - this is the best electric CAR at the moment.
I think that you stated this a couple of times in the video - this is how an EV car should look and feel. Looks like a normal vehicle, has normal controls (as normal as they can be) and all of that makes it feel like a normal car.
The great thing about Mercedes is that when they make big changes, they actually listen to the public and change the things they got wrong. Seems like they've learned a lot that people didn't like on their other EVs
It‘s kinda funny. So many people said they just want normal Mercedes cars but electric. Mercedes now did just that. Now many people still complain because they are biased against evs lol. But this will absolutely sell well.
Also seeing the unaerodynamic shape of the g, they made it insanely efficient
I don't see how that applies to the G which was an existing vehicle. If they're really listening, the new EV from the ground up won't look like the EQS or EQE vehicles. This is based on an existing vehicle.
"The tans are in right now."
The least aerodynamic electric car of all time :D
I love that Mercedes did that. It's so smart.
Most electric cars look futuristic and roundish (except the Cybertruck), but to just take the EXACT design of one of their most popular (if not THE most popular of their) vehicles and transition it to electric is probably a great business decision.
More car makers should make an EV out of their most popular car, without really changing the design, but simultaneously selling the combustion engine version. This is the best chance to make people like the car and transition to electric.
The G-turn feature definitely helps. Mercedes starts building tanks again xD
Yup. The G is insanely sought after. Our dealerships get around 21 per batch. They are unlocked for ordering in the evening and are already all sold early morning.
We have a really long waitlist for them too, and considering we are in the Swabian part of Germany where most people are rather stingy and don’t like to flex with expensive cars, that says a lot!
Also since mercedes HQ is in Stuttgart, I saw a lot of EQG prototypes driving around here over the last years. They did a lot of real world testing!
@@MaticTheProto The Mercedes HQ is in Stuttgart, but the G Class is actually developed and produced in Graz, Austria :)
That's where I live and I saw a ton of them, they have been tested thoroughly :)
@@hummerltheOh produced yes, but they also had a ton of them drive around near Stuttgart
@@MaticTheProto Of course, Stuttgart is Mercedes central after all :)
Still kinda cool that such a well known car actually comes from around here
@@hummerltheOh true
Do you get any extra storage under the hood in the “frunk”?
Nope
Figures….thanks fellas. Great review, by the way!
"NO FRUNK FOR YOU...!!!" (the ghost of Karl Benz makes the soup in NY)
Looks like a true work of art.
What’s under the hood? Is it a frunk?
My favorite feature is the G spot
There'll be definitely someone who will parallel park using the G-Turn feature
Hopefully it doesn't go all wonky due to having to go up on the sidewalk, or the drop off the curb.
this gotta be buttery smooth! all the EV haters out there probably never driven any performance variant EV! honestly the EV G wagon is super sweet!
Aww you guys didn't do the TH G Wagen wave lol I was hoping for the reference.
What’s the th g wagon wave
@@TheStraightPipes Throw a wad of cash at the windshield.
Ah. Clever joke!
All of these new G features are definitely hitting the “G” spot😂😂
Can people outside hear the g roar? Or is it confined to interior only?
With G Turn, imagine someone behind you in traffic honking and being annoying, you just turn around and tell them off lmfao
This thing is so cool
The grille looks very familiar. Never thought MB would make a four door electric Suzuki Jimny.
How about a set of updated AMG Monobloc wheels?
I wish
Sadly it won't tow anything as far as I know.
This thing is sweet, wonder if Canada will get a mil-spec of one of these lol😂
Gosh darn it I need this!
Almost as fun as the g-spot😃
Wouldn’t know
I’d like to request that when it’s unanimous that the wheels suck, then Yuri does a photoshop job of wheels they would approve/pass
Only if Forgiato sponsors the channel
@@TheStraightPipes na, RS Watanabes however I’m not even sure if that’s possible 😂
This will be just as hard to get - as the g-spot
I always click not because of the car but because of the intro music :P
Wait why you have a plate license that is different
Jakub, is there any rolex that you don’t have?
Lots
Isn't that Québec city in Qc Canada?! Not France? @10:02
Heh
Totally Quebec City
Price?
This is nice
Not the Tokyo drift tune made up of Mercedes dings!! 😆 👏
the G Roar thing actually sounds more like the V12 in a G65
Still can’t believe these don’t have a bigger sunroofs, would make the G wagon Perfect
Because the roof is sturdy. You can walk on it
Regular doors, soft closing, air suspension, anti roll control, rear wheel steering... Buy a Range Rover
@@nortropgrumann9594 lmfao no
Tokyo Drift theme song!😂😂😂
How much does it weigh?
Love the “turrrrk”
Get @WhistlinDiesel one of these to do a durability test right now 😂😂😅
Yep. They are continental's tires.
Just waiting on your Ioniq 5 N review.
Same bro that thing is fucking wild (I own a Kona N)
@@Grimesitty I drive an Elantra N...waiting on new on the Ioniq 6 N from other Korean CZcamsrs.
Love it! More videos my guys
It's cars like this that make me excited for our electric future.
G Aura is menacing af lmao
Let's hope there's plenty of sealant around the chassis floor where the batteries are. Imagine wading through a creek with the batteries being surrounded by water. ⚡⚡⚡⚡
No issue. It can actually do deeper wading than the ice version because that one can drown the engine. EVs don’t need air
The G Wagon is my dream car. That said those electric batteries are way too heavy
Pre production, Rivian promised or at least showed off the tank turn by their pickup, but it never made to production, as far as I know….
This is production
Price of them ?
Yangwang u8 also have g turn
