Mercedes-Benz G-Class
Following a tradition of continuous improvements on the G-Class, Mercedes-Benz graces its oldest soldier with styling updates, a new engine for the G500 4Matic (a 416-horsepower twin-turbo 4-litre V8), and extra horses for the G63 AMG's stable, for a total of 563 from the twin-turbo 5.5-litre V8. The four wheel drive hardware and 7-speed automatic transmission are designed for serious off-road use, as are the ladder-type frame and the suspension's rigid axles, found at both ends.
