Mercedes-Benz G-Class Gelandewagen
Mercedes-Benz G-Class Gelandewagen
Gelandewagen was produced as a military vehicle at first. However, it became more popular as a civilian cross-country vehicle today because of its interior design, quality, and its higher handling quality. It was released in 1979 and has never changed its design since. It is called “the best cross-country vehicle in the world” because of its great performance and strong body. The major reason Gelandewage was developed was the need for a light military vehicle by the German Army. At first, the cheaper Volkswagen Iltis were chosen, but since 1990 it has been replaced by G-Class “Wolf” and LAPV Enok. After a design change to a civilian cross-country vehicle in co-operation with the Austrian car manufacturer Steyr-Daimler-Puch, production of G-Class vehicles began in 1979 with the 460 Series models.
Whilst driving in a Gelandewagen, you feel secure and stable as well as spaciousness thanks for wide windows and high positioned seats. As you may already know, it is a powerful car. In addition to that, you will find Gelandewagen very quiet even though it has been designed and produced as a military vehicle at first. The design of Gelandewagen, which is unique and appears “hand-made”, has not been changed for 25 years. You may think that the price of the car is a little bit expensive. However, the advantage is that, compared to other used cars, this vehicle will sell at a relatively high price when sold second hand.
