Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Quick acceleration and impressively smooth power delivery
Great-sounding Mark Levinson audio system
Ultra Luxury trim brings first-class accommodations to rear passengers

Cons
Big and top-heavy feel around turns
Excessively floaty ride like a 1970s Cadillac
Some driver aids can be overly intrusive
Not as much cargo space as some rival SUVs

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Broad range of available trims,
refined twin-turbo V-6 powertrain,
more deluxe interior than outgoing model.

Cons
Third row not standard equipment,
F Sport model has a rough ride,
not as rich looking as a Range Rover.

Sure, crossovers make more sense as luxury vehicles. But that's not why you want a 2018 Mercedes-Benz G-Class in your garage.The 2018 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a soldier in a business suit.

Pros
Classic authenticity
That “clunk” the doors make when they close
Wild off-road ability from the G550 4x4²
Faster than it ever should be

Cons
Or you could buy seven Jeep Wranglers, one for every weekday
Light on safety tech
G550 4x4² presents many urban challenges
New 2019 just around the corner

Iconic design is instantly recognizable
Outstanding forward visibility
Unusually quiet when on the road
Lots of cosmetic customization potential

Compromised off-road ability
Poor interior packaging leaves little useful space
Difficult to get into and out of
Awful steering, handling, drivability and fuel economy
