NEW Mercedes G Wagen First Look. Is the G63 AMG / G500 still king of SUVs? Welcome to the walk around new car episode of The Late Brake Show with Jonny Smith. This is the new 2024 Mercedes G Class in both V8 AMG and G500 (now a straight six engine, like the G450D) where we are in Graz, Austria (the home of G Wagen) to see what subtle differences have been made to the styling, suspension, infotainment and performance.
Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
The electric G Wagen was also filmed on this trip, but that is under embargo another few weeks. Subscribe to get a heads up for that video. So by the end of 2024 there will be 4 models of G Class available - diesel hybrid, G500 hybrid, G63 AMG and full electric.

Here comes the new boss, same as the old boss. Just better handling and more powerful. G63s have always been imperfect road cars so I hope the new model improves things.

Yes, 1% more aero and subtle skin tweaks but otherwise focusing on more power, better economy (mild hybrids all round) and handling for the above. Just wish the base model was more.... Base.

​@@TheLateBrakeShowJohnny no sales figures over the last 20 years reflect your opinion of the entry level G being popular. Last year of the 13,768 Gwagens sold 60% were AMG, the high spec or one offs make up the others , they sold 11 G400 and none of them were "base" spec. I don't know how to put it in a way you understand as I feel you hate the people who buy them because of a class thing, sexism or cultural disdain? Not everyone is looking at the world the same way you are.

Jonny, great review of the new G-wagon ,I live in the centre of Canada where we get winters to the extremes -30 plus windchill can be added to that most says, making it feel like -55, no fun ,there was I believe a G300 diesel running around our city for about 8 yrs and it wasn't too posh, it was white with a blue interior and what looked like 15 or 16" steel wheels on it and i had a chance to run into the owner at a grocery store parking lot, we talked for what felt like an hour , he loved this behemoth he called it, no issues or breakdowns, regular maintenance and wear and tear items, he said it just works, we had a seriously bad winter the year previous the worst in over 100 years,, and was snowfall accumulation and cold temps, he told me he puts on a set of Nokia winter tires that were 32' tall and the blizzard that winter he was out driving around getting people unstuck and pushing through snow as deep as the front hood at times, he said there is no economy on his diesel, its built like a tank the same as the Volvo 240 i was driving, i laughed, he got the best mileage was around 250 miles to one tank of diesel, his wife bought a new Honda CRV and they were both parked in the driveway next to their house and a bad hail storm hit shortly after she bought it, talk about strong, not a dent anywhere in the G-wagon and the CRV over $10,000 in damage, new vehicles are made out of soda pop cans, not the G-wagon, it was neat to talk to him and he loved that thing, I am with you if there was ever a time i could afford one, give me a base model, it would probably have more options than i have ever had for sure, it would be the last vehicle i would own for sure, I have a cousin that is a diesel specialist for Mercedes so would not need the dealer except for parts 👍

I’m with you Jonny. I saw a person at Costco here in America loading groceries into his new AMG G-Wagon a couple weeks ago. It was a nice color and I commented to him that one I noticed it was the new model and two about the cool color he picked. He was elated someone noticed. Wonder if he noticed me getting into my old R129 that was muddier than his truck will ever see😂

Hi Jonny. My friend's Dad had two 2.8 petrol shorty 2 door G Wagens. One beige with matching beige plaid interior, steel wheels and no arches. One red with the 5 spoke alloys, wide black arches, dark grey plaid interior and front/rear light stone guards. The red one was bought for £150 (this was 15 years ago) which gave up it's wheels, arches and stone guards. The beige one cost £500 with a full mot one year before that. It eventually failed the mot after 6 years Sterling service. Both were sold as a pair for £500. 18mpg regardless of being unloaded, or with a 2 ton trailer from Aberdeen to the west coast of Scotland! Cheers. Leigh.

Was in Morocco recently watching a G Wagen trying to climb the largest sand dune in the country. It didn´t make it and, where it bogged down in the sand, on a precarious section, at a ridiculous angle, there were a few hairy moments! It took about an hour to get the thing out of danger and onto some slightly better inclinations. Suffice to say, they didn´t try again!

Our 2014 Suzuki Swift Sport also has key-less entry. Push the button just like that. Except it works first time. The rear hatch also has a separate button cunningly hidden next to the open button. Looks like Mercedes have waited, and waited, and finally pounced on this tech, and found a way to make it 1000% (just an estimate...it might only be 6 or 700 %) more expensive.And it still has the spare on the back door. Innovative.

Maybe it's different in other counties but I've never seen a g wagon in the wild per se. I've only ever seen one with half a dozen scantily clad women tweaking over it in some no name rap video 🤔. I knew they were expensive but I always thought range rover expensive, didn't realise they were hand built also, very informative video Johnny.

Watched this. thought I quite liked it, agree with Jonny about the base cars being more interesting than the blingy ones. then I went to Mercedes website. 5 minutes trying to get anything useful from that and I retired to lick my wounds. What an abysmal buying experience.

Is she just a PR person? The vagueness regarding the difference in suspension setups was interesting.

I am with you, best Gs are bog standard basic with no jingle-jangle. Shame they don't do them any more, they would sell masses, especially with a sensible price tag

I would rather get the G500 and send it to Urban for body mods.

Hi Jonny, what a lovely looking "new" vehicle. Spoilt by the hybrid lunacy. Why oh why an electric G-Wagon though? "As basic as possible", you said it. Let's have it without electric drive, back to knobs & switches, and a manual gearbox. Come on Mercedes, you know it make sense.
