The order books for Mercedes-Benz India’s all-electric G-Class, known as the “G 580 with EQ Technology,” are now available. With a quad-motor all-wheel drive system that can accelerate the three-ton SUV from 0 to 100 kmph in less than 5 seconds and all the off-road characteristics one would expect from a G-Class, the electric version of the iconic G-Wagon was debuted in April of this year.

The G 580 EV has minor cosmetic changes but keeps the boxy shape and dimensions of the regular G-Class. The most noticeable modification is at the front, where the conventional grille has been replaced with a closed-off panel in keeping with other Mercedes-Benz EVs. Customers can choose between a black headlight housing and an illuminated surround on an EQ-style blanked-out grille.
