We’ve seen Mercedes-Benz 's new electric G-wagen SUV before—but even better than seeing it, we hit the snow.for as long as it possibly can. We’ve already spent a bunch of time riding around as passengers inside the upcoming G580; this review adds to that, as Mercedes isn’t letting any non-employees behind the G-Class’ wheel until the global drive program commences at the end of this month.
We finally know the power output of the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 electric: 579 horsepower and 859 lb-ft of torque. This is slightly more power and much more torque thanmakes: 577 hp and 627 lb-ft. The upcoming mild hybrid G63 might squeak out a few more horses , but nowhere near as much torque . All the above means the G580 will probably be quicker in a straight line than the G63, though the EV will weigh more than the internal-combustion AMG SUV .
We sadly didn’t do any rock-crawling on this trip, but we spent way more time than you’d imagine a group of adults would goofing around doing G-turns. You might know them better as tank-turns, but the driver-side wheels rotate in one direction, the passenger-side wheels in the opposite, and the big G-Wagens spin in a circle on their own axis. After watching one or two, I jumped into the passenger seat to experience it from the inside.
