“The Land Rover, Range Rover SV is the top of the line but is too docile. It is so quiet that I cannot tell if it started.!!! Unlike the Sport SV which is tough. The ride is too soft even in Dynamic setting.”
2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a carryover with no major changes from 2023. The G 550 returns with the same V8 power, off-road hardware, cabin technology, and safety features.
About the 2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class
2019 redesign generation (2019-2024), final year before the 2025 update.
Mercedes-Benz positions the G-Class as an icon: a handcrafted luxury SUV with genuine off-road ability, instantly recognizable upright styling, and a richly trimmed cabin. Its appeal is not maximum space or efficiency. Buyers choose it for the combination of ladder-frame toughness, locking differentials, premium comfort, and a look that stands apart from smoother, more road-focused luxury SUVs.
The G 550 blends the G-Class's upright design and serious off-road ability with a leather-lined luxury cabin. Standout features include a 416-hp twin-turbo V8, full-time four-wheel drive with low range and three locking differentials, plus a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, Burmester audio, and heated front and rear seats.

2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class Reviews
What owners are saying about the 2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
“I love the interior but was disappointed with some of the features for a 2024. Would expect a wireless phone charger, touch screen, and USB-C ports in a new car, which this doesn't have.”
“The infotainment system needs to be updated, at least on par with other vehicles in the manufacturer's lineup. No touchscreen and no wireless CarPlay are very behind the times. The backup camera is subpar compared to other vehicles in the manufacturer's lineup. This being the highest-end SUV in the manufacturer's lineup, it should have only the best features.”
