In this episode, Doug DeMuro takes a closer look at the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ technology. Yes, that's the official name - a fully electric version of the legendary G-Class SUV. With 580 horsepower under the hood and a starting price of around $170,000, this electric G-Wagon is not to be underestimated. However, its unique ability to perform a tank turn maneuver is what steals the show. By utilizing four electric motors, the G580 can rotate a full 360 degrees around itself - a mind-boggling feature that requires a series of precise steps to execute.
Despite its impressive power, the G580 is burdened by its weight, clocking in at about 6900 lbs. This weight difference compared to the AMG G63 affects its acceleration, with a 0 to 60 time of 4.5 seconds. The exterior of the electric G-Wagon sports subtle differences from its gas-powered counterparts, such as a backpack in place of a spare tire and blue accents to signify its electric nature. Inside, the cabin features blue stitching and trim, emphasizing the eco-friendly aspect of the vehicle.
The 2025 model year brings a slew of new technology to the G-Class lineup, including adaptive cruise control, auto steering, and keyless go - features that were notably absent in previous iterations. The addition of rear screens in the back provides passengers with a full infotainment system, allowing control over various vehicle functions from the comfort of the rear seats. Despite some minor quirks and design choices, the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ technology proves to be a worthy addition to the G-Wagon family, blending iconic design with modern electric power seamlessly.
