The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has gone electric—but don’t worry, it hasn’t gone soft! Meet the G 580 First Edition, an all-electric G-Wagen that retains its boxy, go-anywhere attitude while packing 580 horsepower and 1,164 Nm of torque from four electric motors. It can still tackle extreme terrain, pull off a G-Turn, and launch from 0-100 km/h in under 5 seconds—all while making a statement in absolute silence.
