Overview
Officially known as the G 580 with EQ Technology, a very different choice for a name, is the first thing that came to mind after the silhouette of an official G-Wagon which sort of always live in my dreams, but lets move ahead of that so is the Mercedes, with the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 EV which is representative of a substantial transition of the legendary G-Wagen into the electric era. This change though is substantial but still Mercedes has been able to a preserves the G-Wagons renowned off-road ability while loading it with several noteworthy tech updates and features. Let’s take a look…
Design and Features
The G 580 maintains its traditional boxy shape while adding contemporary features like the redesign of the rear door Design Box, which now houses tools and charging connections. The new OFF-ROAD COCKPIT, a 12.3-inch driver display, and the most recent Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) system is also included, which offers crucial information for off-road travel.
Performance and Capability
The G 580 has four independently controlled electric motors that produces a total of 579 horsepower and 859 lb-ft of torque. These motors distribute power precisely to each tire, this helps in better handling and traction if you are onto off-roading. Interestingly, the vehicle can power wheels on opposite sides in various directions to do a “tank turn,” which is a 360-degree rotation within its own length.
Charging and Range

0 to 60mph
Despite its substantial 3.1-ton weight, the SUV accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in approximately 4.6 seconds, with a top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph).
G-ROAR
An innovative G-ROAR sound experience emits a deep, bassy growl during acceleration, reminiscent of its gasoline-powered predecessors. Drivers can select from different acoustic settings, including a subdued “Comfort” mode and a more aggressive “Sport” mode, through the ELECTRIC DYNAMIC SELECT drive programs.
Infotainment
To keep you entertained, a Burmester 3D surround sound audio system is installed.
Off-Road Prowess
With 9.8 inches of ground clearance, the capacity to climb a 100% grade, and a maximum fording depth of 33.5 inches, the G 580’s off-road skills are outstanding.
