Mercedes announces that the electric G-Class will arrive in 2024
Mercedes-Benz has revealed when you might be able to get behind the wheel of its electric G-Class. The automaker's CEO, Ola Källenius, has told media that the vehicle will arrive by the end of 2024, according to Autoblog.
The company announced a zero-emission electric version of the SUV in 2019 and we took a close look at an EQG concept last year. Last fall, Källenius put a prototype of the electric vehicle through its paces at Mercedes' proving ground in Graz, Austria. This is where the company typically rates the internal combustion version of the G-Class. It apparently had a positive experience. "From now on, off-roading is electric," Källenius told reporters.
Running an electric version of the G-Class was key to keeping the SUV going for the long haul. Mercedes plans to have a range of all-electric vehicles by 2030.
