Limited to 100 units and based on the Middle Eastern motoring heritage, this new member of the G-Class family convinces with its unique and exclusive design.

To go along with its rugged, powerful and sporty exterior, Mercedes-Benz has outfitted the limited edition G-Class with a set of 19-inch AMG wheels in a special matte-finish. Available in either cashmere white or nightblack, the exterior are a natural extension to the vehicle’s striking appearance.

In the interior, a two-tone treatment was given with a contrasting black and porcelain leather theme while carbon fiber and champagne white Designo piano lacquer wood trim acts as decor.

Additional features like the rear-seat entertainment system as well as details like the badge, confirming that this vehicle is only one of a few, underline the exclusiveness of this special model.

The introduction of the limited range underlines the legendary reputation the vehicle has attracted not only locally and regionally but also on an international scale.

The G-Class continues to shine with both current and previous owners, as well as those motoring enthusiasts that simply appreciate the vehicle’s widespread appeal. This is evident with the number of accolades the vehicle continues to receive.

Recently the G-Class had a double victory when it secured first place in the ‘Luxury off-road vehicle’ category, as well as the title of the ‘Off-road vehicle of the year’ by a reader’s survey conducted by specialist publication ‘Off-Road’. This reader vote of confidence serves to highlight the exceptional position enjoyed by premium brand Mercedes-Benz in the all-wheel vehicle sector.

This year marks the eighth time that the G-Class, which has been in production for almost 32 years, has emerged victorious in the important reader survey conducted by specialist publication ‘Off Road’.

The first awards received by the off-road classic date back almost as far as the date of creation of the G-Class itself. In 1983 for example, the Australian specialist magazine “Bushdriver” voted it the best 4×4 off-road vehicle of the year. Since that time the off-road icon has picked up numerous additional awards. Readers of the specialist publication “auto motor und sport” alone
have voted the G-Class as the world’s best off-road vehicle on no less than 14 occasions. As such the G-Class is one of the most popular and highly decorated models in the off-road vehicle sector.

Since inception, the vehicle has been subject to ongoing product enhancements. This was important to cater for the expectations G-Class customers anticipate from such a specialized product. The engineering & development efforts have proved attractive to customers within the Arabian Peninusula; making the Middle East & Levant the largest importer of G 55 AMG globally.

For the GCC & Levant regions, the “G” family currently has two engine variants: The long-wheel base G 500 which is equipped with a powerful 5.5-litre V8 petrol engine developing 285 kW (388 hp) with a torque of 530 Nm and the flagship G 55 AMG which boasts a V8 supercharged engine developing 373 kW (507 hp) and an impressive peak torque of 700 Nm
