Exploring the Upcoming Zero-Emissions Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen

Big things are happening at Mercedes-Benz, as the company is shifting focus onto making the best electric luxury vehicles on the road. Soon, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class — which is the premier luxury off-roader on the market — will soon be electrified. Here are some early details we have about the upcoming electric version of the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen — the EQG.

Welcome the All-Electric EQG

While it will perhaps always be known as the G-Wagen (or G-Wagon, if you like), the electric model will be known as the Mercedes-Benz EQG. When you see the “EQ” label, you know it’s an unrivaled electric car made by Mercedes-Benz.

Quad-Motor System

Just because the Mercedes-Benz EQG is electric, that doesn’t mean its excellent off-road ability will be any different from its gas-powered sibling — it may be even better. It boasts a quad-motor system, with each offering high- and low-range gearing choices, and they can simulate three locking differentials. Thanks to its G turn function, it will be able to spin 360 degrees in place using steering wheel paddles. This electric luxury wagon is truly in a league of its own.

Next-Gen Battery Tech

While Mercedes-Benz is still keeping many things about the Mercedes-Benz EQG under wraps, the company has revealed that it will be its first car to use next-gen battery tech. It will be equipped with silicon anode chemistry batteries, which offer up to a 40-percent improvement in energy density. This means that smaller battery packs will be able to offer excellent driving range.
