Mercedes-Benz has officially launched the all-new G 580 with EQ Technology AMG Line in Hong Kong, and pre-orders are now open. This luxury electric SUV seamlessly blends cutting-edge EQ tech with the sporty prowess of AMG, striking the perfect balance between opulence and performance. It retains the iconic, boxy silhouette of the G-Class while infusing it with a dash of electric-era allure, ensuring it stands out in both style and sustainability.
When it comes to the core tech and performance, the G 580 is decked out with a massive 116 kWh high-voltage lithium-ion battery. This setup isn't just a flex—it lowers the center of gravity, enhancing stability, and nails an impressive 491 kilometers of range under the WLTP standards. Plus, with four independently controlled motors pumping out up to 587 horsepower and 1,164 Newton-meters of torque, drivers can totally boss any terrain they dare to tackle.
In terms of off-road capabilities, the G 580 ups the ante with its cutting-edge G-TURN, G-STEERING, and intelligent off-road climbing tech, delivering a unique and exceptional off-roading experience.
In terms of design, the AMG Line takes the G 580's appearance to the next level with an extra dose of dynamism. From the extended wheel arches to the silver-chrome trim bumpers, every detail pulsates with AMG's high-performance DNA. The unique two-tone design on the trunk further amps up the G-Class's personality. What's cooler, owners can tap into the MANUFAKTUR customization service to craft a ride that’s all their own, showcasing their personal style with flair.
The G 580 with EQ Technology AMG Line isn't just any ride; it's a fusion of opulence and innovation that seriously turns heads. From its spectacular battery life to its unique off-roading capabilities, this beast showcases Mercedes-Benz's leadership in electrification. It’s more than just sticking true to its G-Class roots; it’s a whole new definition of electric off-roading's future. I'm super stoked to see how it performs on the streets of Hong Kong. Will it manage to win over the hardcore traditional G-Class aficionados and the new wave of electric vehicle buffs? Only time will tell!
In terms of pricing, the G 580 with EQ Technology AMG Line kicks off at HK$2,380,000.
