The New 2011 Mercedes-Benz G-Class

By Zaheer on Jul 12, 2011 with Comments 0


With the new 2011 model of the Mercedes Benz G Class being available this has been given a lot of room to show off what it really can do; in Europe this can be known as the Geländewagen however but it is perfect for when it comes to being an extreme off road kind of SUV.

There have been a lot of rumors that this G Class car was actually going to be discontinued and were never going to be seen again but that is not true, ok so this car has been around since the middle of the ninety seventies but still it is a powerful and classic car.  There have been a lot of changes to this car however over the time that has passed including the engines available even with the transmission also.  Though when it comes to the body on frame then that really does stay the same – it really has been only the engine and transmissions that have been given a huge makeover for the past few years which helps to keep the classic style and feel to this Mercedes Benz.

The Mercedes will have the G550 model or even the G55 AMG model also which this AMG will prove it can work well with a great supercharged V-8 5.4 liter engine which was with the transmission of only a five speed.  The G550 managed to get a great V-8 5.5 liter engine which produced a massive horsepower of almost three hundred and eighty two which was pretty amazing for this Mercedes.  This model was the one that worked perfectly with the seven speed transmission however but this and the G55 AMG are going to have new heavy duty axles as well as the locking systems of the back, center and the front locking devices.

There are not going to be a lot of people that are going to use this Mercedes for any off road driving however which can be a shame but many will probably understand why that is however.  This is a very nice car and not many are going to really want this to go off at all; this car can really handle smoothly however which is almost flawless in many ways however.

There are quite a few new changes or upgrades to this car that really can make this Mercedes worth so much more, though with some of the military styles then that is not going to be for everyone’s tastes and with that it can decrease the comfort also but the main issue might be the price.

For most buyers they are going to be paying out almost one hundred and five dollars for this little car so it will look beautiful but it can’t just sit in the driveway.  Those that buy this will want to make sure that everyone has seen it.

This Mercedes will only come in the SUV body style with either the 5.5 liter V-8 engine or the V-8 5.4 liter engine also.  They will work with the five or seven speed automatic transmission so it is really the customer’s choice over which engine and transmission they want to work with.  There will be only the two types of models to choose from with the G55 AMG and the G550 model also.

When people ask what is going to be new for this then new really shouldn’t be the word that is used because there are not going to be any real changes for this year’s model.  There are new five spoke wheel designs with the spilt spokes and the eighteen inch wheels and with the AMG then there are going to almost everything coming from the previous model.  There are still going to be the nineteen inch wheels and even the interior stays mostly the same; there will be the leather dash board and the power front seats and the spare wheel cover has been a little redesigned but everything is finished off nicely with chrome.

The exterior is good also, it will have a more traditional feel to it but it is thought as being quite rare also so that is quite positive also.  There is the four door hard top and that is the only option with this Mercedes.

This has a rugged foundation however though there is now the element of luxury to the car which is nice and there are some nice trims also.  There is the dual zone climate system as well as the power sunroof and heated back and front seats also.

With the AMG this can reach a massive five hundred of horsepower and getting to sixty is amazing, though trying on those tough corners and there might be issues.  This is not going to be very light either but it will shine the rest of the ways.

There are the same standard airbags for the driver and the front seat passenger as well as the traction and stability controls.  There is even the back and front head curtain airbags with the tire-pressure monitoring and brake assist.  That works perfectly with the ABS also.

The EPA fuel economy ratings are fair however with them being at eleven and fifteen mpg for the city and highway roads.
