In our country, immodest cars are highly respected. Many want to show their status in society by buying expensive and premium vehicles. That is why the proposal given class large enough. The market of large SUVs in Russia in its range is second only to American models. Large full-size jeeps are used in our country far from their intended purpose. It is hard to imagine the most expensive configuration of the Mercedes Gelendvagen 2014 in off-road competitions.
However, the demand for these machines is great. German company offered such a diverse range of its "Cube" that everyone will find the necessary price offer with excellent equipment. The traditional male Gelendvagen has become the main character of our today's review.
Appearance - only cosmetic changes
The corporation did not change anything in the appearance of its flagship. In 2014, we were faced with the same rough and masculine brutal SUV with huge shapes, incredibly large wheels and impressive ground clearance. The new car differs little from its predecessor. Gelendvagen has become one of the most anticipated Mercedes proposals this year.
The famous G-class took on slightly different forms, became larger in appearance and received slightly modified forms of the radiator grille and front optics. But the main advantages of Gelandewagen remained in place. In branded photos and videos, the car occupies its former positions, offering its customers excellent travel opportunities on any road. The new design of the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen in 2014 received the following features:
Completely redesigned arcs wheel arches with removal outside the body;
the radiator grill received two longitudinal chrome strips;
front bumper Fully trimmed with black grille to improve radiator cooling;
under the traditional round front optics Gelendvagen are LED running lights;
wheel disks became larger and received new designs;
the characteristic clear lines of the body remained the same, a little sharpness was added.
In its new look, the 2014 Mercedes Gelendvagen clearly gets more positive feedback. Gelandewagen in the past generation was clearly not so modern and elegant. He was a very discreet and simple car with the usual external characteristics. The Mercedes badge, as well as the elite origin and overpriced Geländewagen, inspired great trust and respect.
Interior - comfort in German
Inside, the changes in the new generation are much more noticeable than outside. The interior design of the Geländewagen is not made in the tradition of a brutal jeep, as it was in previous versions. Here every detail speaks of premium class and the huge cost of the car. Even plastics are more like leather, have an equally soft structure. It is very pleasant to touch any element of the interior.
The controls in the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen are also pleasing. Branded solutions in the field of the steering wheel, automatic transmission lever give premium mood to the cabin. You should also pay attention to the following features of the interior of the SUV:
Performance in the general style of the current generation of crossovers and SUVs Mercedes;
the presence of a huge space, which sometimes even seems redundant;
excellent interior trim with a combination of leather, plastics and other elite and expensive materials;
the presence of elements reminiscent of the calling of a huge passable car(handle for the passenger on the front panel, for example);
very convenient switching between drive modes.
Savings on materials in Gelandewagen does not even smell. The car is truly unique in its performance and design. In the photo it is impossible to see even a tenth of what can be learned on a test drive. In 2014, the Germans offered an excellent alternative, which has practically no competitors. This SUV has entered the space where it builds sales rules for itself.
Technique "Cube" - what engines will carry you?
When it comes to technical specifications, there is no need to doubt the offerings of the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen. Even reviews of previous versions jeep talk about the superiority of technology over all possible alternatives on the market. It is important to choose exactly the Gelendvagen equipment that suits you in terms of power, equipment and cost.
The manufacturer offers four options for technical specifications for your future SUV. You won’t be able to decide on a test drive, as you will have to try all four versions to feel the difference. But no official salon will do this. Gelandewagen options for technical specifications and configurations are as follows:
The G 350 BlueTEC is the most of the series in 2014 with a 3-litre V6 engine and 211 horsepower;
G500 - one of the most popular versions of the Gelendvagen with a 5.5-liter V8 petrol unit and a potential of 387 horses;
G63 AMG - a tuned version of the SUV with the same 5.5-liter unit, but boosted to 544 horsepower;
The G65 AMG is an unrealistically powerful car, with a 6-liter V12 petrol engine that produces 612 horses.
The last unit is practically not sold in Russia because of its unrealistic price. But for a test drive, such a car is taken willingly. That is why there are a lot of reviews on the network about this version Gelendvagen. By the way, there are simply no V12 engines in other class cars. Because 65 AMG is a real monopoly in the market of large and powerful SUVs.
If you have the opportunity to take the Gelendvagen in this configuration for a test drive, be sure to do it.
Cost and other features of the German legend
The issue of price has never been at the forefront of a potential buyer of Geledvagen. However, the last described equipment is in official salons companies almost 15 million rubles. And that's really a lot of money. Therefore, many have to ask the price of versions and choose the most optimal one even in the elite class.
The most popular SUV in this segment in Russia is the Gelendvagen G500. In this configuration, the car draws in 5.6 million rubles, offering its buyer noticeable advantages:
Bulky engine with incredible potential;
the presence on board of everything that you can think of;
comfort and safety of the version at height;
the SUV has developed off-road capabilities;
a car can also offer excellent comfort on a long trip.
If you need a transport that will provide you with wonderful comfort on any trip, give you a huge supply of power under the pedal and can become a certain business card, then you should pay attention to this offer of the German concern.
The price of the basic configuration with a relatively modest engine is 4.4 million. The difference with the next version is colossal, but in terms of appearance and features of the trip in urban conditions, the cars do not differ at all. Therefore, the base SUV is also in great demand among our customers. For relatively little money, you get a car that is not much different from a version one and a half times more expensive. Everyone loves this benefit.
Summing up
The revival and long-awaited appearance of Gelendvagen in Russia took place. We saw an updated and refreshed SUV, which is up for testing Russian conditions operation. And we can draw certain conclusions. Many expected much fewer updates from the novelty. The big German off-road conqueror turned out to be much more beautiful than its predecessor.
The announcement of the return of the legend is being carried out actively through advertising sources, so there are no more people left in big cities who do not know about the release of the updated Gelandewagen. The first sales results are unlikely to please the company, but a significant increase in the popularity of the car is expected closer to the second half of 2014.
Mercedes Gelendvagen - an SUV loved by many. To some, he will seem too boring and gloomy, while others see in him classic restraint and power. But the main difference of the car is precisely that the model has excellent power parameters. That is why on Russian market it is especially popular among residents of remote areas.
Mercedes Gelendvagen is often called a brutal car that is absolutely not suitable for girls. But recently, the fair sex can increasingly be seen driving a car. Changes in appearance made the model more representative. If earlier it was a completely militaristic style, now the model can be called a fashion model, with which you can emphasize your special status.
Updates concern both external and internal parts. But if, when thinking over the design of the case, the manufacturer pays more attention to the appearance itself, then in the cabin the main emphasis is on functionality, so that all modern features and innovations that provide a comfortable and safe ride are taken into account.
Exterior
Mercedes Gelendvagen - a car of a brutal restrained look. These off-road vehicles at one time were used only for transporting the military, trips to hard-to-reach areas. Now they are increasingly seen in cities.
The generation of modern cars differs primarily in functionality, although certain categories of cars also have a memorable original design. Here, everything is extremely simple.
New Mercedes(class G) latest model made taking into account the general concept model range. The manufacturer remained true to the general style. But at the same time, the style became a little less militaristic. Now it's just a representative car, which lacks any additional elements decor. Simple understated elegance is what distinguishes these machines from the crowd.
The color of Gelendvagen black has already become a real classic. Although there are other colors. There are no decorations on the body, but in newer models there is an opportunity additional choice panoramic roof.
The front part is very impressive, has additional protection. Wheels and disks are made of reliable material, large-sized.
Interior
The new model has many additional modifications that helped make the car not only more attractive inside, but also more reliable and safe.
In the new Gelika, interior photos can be taken from any angle, thanks to wider windows, the choice of a panoramic roof. The distinctiveness of the premium version immediately catches the eye. The leather interior fills the space with luxury.
The model has many improvements. First of all, the dashboard has become more convenient. Now there is only the most necessary, but the functionality has been expanded. More comfortable and smaller steering wheel.
There is enough space in the back for three passengers. The seats are separated. If necessary, they can be folded to increase the volume of the luggage compartment.
The front seats have many tilt modes, adjustable in height. Additionally, you can equip them with a massager, ventilation. There are also many shelves, pockets in the cabin so that you can place the necessary things.
Options and prices
Many are often interested in the question of how much the Mercedes Gelendvagen costs. The reason for the increased interest is that different generations cars have a different cost, the range is large.
The average cost of a new generation model in Moscow is 8.6-9.5 million rubles. At the same time, it can reach 12-13 million if you additionally choose accessories to make the car more comfortable (improved interior trim material, additional airbags, more functional radio, ventilation and massage function for the first row seats, etc.).
Simply put, you first need to decide on a list of important options for yourself and then calculate the final cost of the car. In any case, buy a car with all necessary options much cheaper than equipping it separately afterwards.
If he talks about models of previous generations, then they can be purchased for 5.5-6 million rubles. But they are less functional.
At the same time, even basic models have the necessary set of functionality and accessories:
- air conditioner;
- multimedia;
- navigator;
- front seat heating system;
- parking assistant;
- Rain sensor.
The price in different cities of Russia may vary slightly. It all depends on the dealership. Often people, trying to save money, are looking for more budget options, but this is not entirely correct. The main reason why it is better to buy a car in a branded showroom is a guarantee that only original components are used. In addition, in this case, you can be completely sure of a cheap, quick repair if any problems arise.

The car is famous for its powerful parameters all over the world, which is why it is preferred by those who often have to travel off-road. Specifications cars look like this:

Depending on the selected version, the parameters may differ slightly, but in general, the characteristic does not change.
More than 33 years have passed since the appearance of Gelenvagen on the world market. During this time, the car has not been touched by any cardinal changes: both the appearance and the already legendary all-wheel drive with 3 locking differentials remain in business. The queue for the acquisition of Mercedes Gelendvagen 2014-2015 is not decreasing, therefore, the popularity of this model is not to be taken. There is an explanation for this: about 5-6 thousand cars are produced annually.
In the article we will talk about those (albeit not global) changes that the 2014-2015 SUV underwent as a result of modernization.
- Before proceeding with the description, let's refresh the memory of the external parameters of the Mercedes-Benz G-class 2014 (in quotation marks are the indicators of the Gelenvagen version from AMG). So, the length of the car is 4662 (4763) mm, height - 1931 mm (1951 mm), width - 1760 mm.
- Wheelbase indicator - 2850 mm; clearance - 210 (220 mm); the approach/departure angles are 36 (27)0 and 270 respectively.
As we have already said, outwardly updated Mercedes Gelandewagen 2014-2015 largely inherited the features of its predecessor, including the notorious straight lines.
At the same time, during the restyling, the car was equipped with new LED running lights, which are now located under the familiar round headlights. Headlights, by the way, have become bi-xenon, adaptive; the mirrors were updated, which now received additional light elements that duplicate the indicators of turns.
The greatest changes, of course, occurred in the appearance of the Gelenvagen AMG: new bumpers with huge air intakes were prepared for these cars; a new design of the radiator grille appeared; red calipers brake mechanisms, as well as a giant 20-inch. disks. A car with a curb weight of more than 2500 kg can be equipped with a variety of power units and additional equipment- depending on this, the types of disks and tires offered for installation also differ. For example, for the basic configuration (not represented in Russia), rubber is provided, dressed on alloy wheels(which are available for other versions of the car) - 265/70 R16, 265/60 R18, 275/50 R20.
The rest of the exterior components of the beloved SUV remained unchanged, thanks to which new Mercedes G Class 2014-2015 remained the same daring and aggressive: the same design of doors attached with outside, perfectly flat surfaces on all sides of the body.
The body of Gelewagen, according to the tradition that has developed over the years, is mainly painted in white and black. At the same time, there are many who want to order other color options: today the most popular colors are metallic, black magnetic, silver palladium, silver iridium, black obsidian.
You can also purchase Gelenvagen, painted in the colors of "green periclase", "blue tanzanite", "gray indium", "brown peridot", "red thulite", "grey tenorite", "beige sanidine", "red mystic", "black mocha", "black platinum", "blue mystic", "brown mystic", "graphite", "platinum".
The most significant changes affected the interior of a huge car: now the interior is replete with many features designed to provide optimal conditions for the driver and passengers - the 2014-2015 Mercedes G-class interior meets chic materials (11 varieties of genuine leather, different kinds wood), perfect assembly, as well as interior detailing.
The multifunctional steering wheel received an electric drive, on the instrument panel there are two wells, between which there is an 11.4 cm display. The updated console has a 17.8 TFT display, as well as most of the buttons that control the comfort functions. The control buttons that control the differential lock are located apart - they are at the driver's fingertips, in the most convenient place.
The availability of all kinds of systems is also striking: Command (combines navigation, interface, multimedia, USB, AUX, Bluetooth, network access), rear-view cameras, parking sensors, climate control, electric front seats, massage, heating, ventilation and many others.
The trunk of the Gelenvagen in the standard state has a rather modest volume - 480 liters, however, with the rear row folded down, the car can accommodate 2250 liters. cargo.
Specifications
Specifications Mercedes-Benz G-class fully meet all the requirements put forward for the characteristics of modern SUVs, being in many ways the reference for their class. Note that thanks to the technical equipment, Mercedes Gelenvagen is able to easily overcome water obstacles up to 600 mm, move on surfaces with a slope of up to 540, and also conquer 800 climbs, which is inaccessible to the vast majority of modern SUVs. The SUV is equipped with a system all-wheel drive, and electronic system 4ETS, responsible for the distribution of traction. Add to that the presence of three electric, 100% lockable differentials; uncut rear and front axles, suspension with traction on trailing arms, and you will get the perfect off-road fighting kit.
Our Gelendvagen is available with 3 petrol engines and 2 gearboxes: AMG Speed shift Plus 7G-Tronic and automatic transmission 7G-Tronic. The G500 model received 5.5 liters. V8 (388 hp), working with 7 step automatic transmission. 100 km/h mark this option Gelevagen will overcome in just 6.1 seconds, I have a “maximum speed” of 210 km / h. Fuel consumption in combo mode is appropriate - about 15-20 liters.
The next equipment from AMG is the G63, which has a 5.5 liter V8. (544 hp), working with 7 stupas. automatic transmission. The first "hundred" is overcome in 5.4 seconds, the maximum speed is limited at around 210 km / h. Gasoline consumption in combo mode is 12-18 liters.
Video
Another modification from AMG was the powerful Gelenvagen G65 - this car has a V12 power unit with a volume of 6.0 liters (612 hp), which works with 7 speeds. automatic transmission. Up to 100 km / h, the car accelerates, almost like a sports car - in just 5.3 seconds, developing a top speed of 230 km / h. Fuel consumption - 13.7 liters. while driving on the highway, 22.7 liters. - in urban environments.
Price and configuration
To prevent rumors that the price of the new Mercedes Gelendvagen is sky-high, we recall that being the owner of a Mercedes-Benz G-class in our country is incredibly status and prestigious, and no one has canceled the famous saying that you have to pay for everything. So, the cost of Gelenvagen in domestic salons starts at 5.15 million rubles. - for the complete set of G500. More "advanced" Mercedes G63 AMG is estimated at 7.39 million rubles. And finally, for the most prestigious version of the Mercedes G65 AMG V12 2014-2015, they ask for 13.9 million rubles.
Just a couple of years ago, the famous Gelendvagen celebrated the 38th anniversary of its production - this model produced since 1979.
You won’t surprise anyone with such a term on the assembly line - many successful cars Japanese manufacturers are also produced for a long time. But in the Mercedes Gelendvagen, the main thing is different - over the years, the design of the SUV has remained virtually unchanged.
Yes, certain improvements and additions are being made to it, and in terms of decoration, the restyled model of 2015 is very different from the previous generation - but the general concept remains constant, and for an uninitiated person, distinguishing the 463rd body from the previous one will be an almost impossible task.
So, despite the somewhat outdated, according to critics, appearance and unsightly design, Mercedes-Benz does not plan to remove the G-class from production or make any radical changes to the design.
The best evidence of this is the model update that took place in 2015. Neither externally nor technically Gelik didn't get any major changes- all major improvements have affected the interior and a line of more powerful and economical power units. The photo shows the version of the G63 AMG.
Exterior
As mentioned above, there is nothing new in the guise of a restyled Mercedes Gelendvagen. All the same angular brutal-looking body, mounted on a powerful ladder-type frame, is a legacy of the off-road military past. The frame, consisting of U-shaped profiles and spars, has an additional layer of polymer protection that reliably protects the metal from premature corrosion and increases its rigidity.
The main difference between the Gelika body is reshaped front bumper, with air intakes located at the corners and new rear view mirrors. In the lower part of the body, a rounded underbody protection is installed in front.
Another difference is the new optics. The SUV received LED daytime running lights integrated into the LED rear bumper fog lights, as well as turn signals with illumination of the near space. Fog lights installed in the front bumper now have the option of "side light".
From its predecessor, the 2015 Mercedes G-Class can also be distinguished by the extended wheel arches, which are now installed even in basic equipment, and discs with a diameter of 18 in. For more expensive versions wheels are available in sizes 19 to 21 in.
Interior
But if there are not so many differences in the appearance of the updated Gelik, then you should look into the salon. With some effort to open the door - and the engineers remained true to the concept of "brutal SUV for a real man", and it does not open so easily - you can see that there is nothing in common with previous generations.
If on the outside the Mercedes Gelendvagen gives the impression of a utilitarian all-terrain vehicle, then inside there is an atmosphere of luxury and comfort, second only to the Bentley Bentayga.
Genuine leather, wood, high-quality fabrics, polished metal and carbon fiber are widely used in interior decoration. The front comfort seats have a function of pneumatic adjustment of the supports and electric adjustment in height and inclination with memory position.
There are also three full-fledged chairs at the back, but due to the design features, there is not as much space as it seems. All seats are electrically heated as standard, but their shape is far from ideal - the lack of lateral support, low headrests and flat pillows will not let you relax in long journey. In this regard, the Mercedes G-Class is inferior to modern crossovers such as the Range Rover Velar.
The dashboard is of a classic type, with two shafts and a four-spoke multifunction steering wheel. The buttons located on the steering wheel can not only control devices and regulate the operation of the multimedia system, but also receive incoming calls, control on-board computer and much more.
On the center console of a somewhat archaic form there are air vents and control keys for on-board systems. Above it is installed a remote display of the latest COMAND Online multimedia system with a diagonal of 7.0 inches with an additional controller on the armrest. It includes a USB CD/DVD player, a wireless interface, HDD 80 GB in size, the ability to connect a phone and an Internet browser.
The Harmon / Kardon surround sound system and Ambient Lighting interior lighting are already installed in the standard version of the Gelika, as well as dual zone climate control THERMATIC.

Among the small number of SUVs that can truly be called legendary, one of the worthy places is occupied by the German Mercedes-Benz G-Class. More recently, the developers have presented another version of the restyling of this car, which is designed to maintain the due popularity of the model for the next two years. After all, as Mercedes representatives say, in 2017 it is planned to carry out a full-fledged change in the Gelendvagen generation. In Russia updated model should go to salons official dealers already in autumn 2015.
You should not expect any revelations in design from the new Mercedes Gelendvagen 2015-2016 appearance or interior decoration. As a result of the update, the car has remained virtually unchanged in terms of design. And here, as regards motor line SUV and other technical aspects of the car, then here the changes can be called significant.
Even with a rather picky external examination car, it becomes clear that the main new element of the exterior of the restyled version of Gelandewagen was a modified front bumper with integrated foglights. Modifications G350 and G500, except for the new bumper with two large bars air intakes, received additional wheel arch extensions from tuning studio AMG painted in body color. Top Options cars equipped with the most powerful power units and having the prefix AMG in the model name, got “their” original bumpers. In addition, for versions of Mercedes-Benz AMG G-class installation of exterior mirrors rear view, front and rear bumper, as well as wheel arch extensions and lining around the hard cover for the spare tire, painted in black. The roof of such versions of the SUV is also painted black. From other features external design of the car, door moldings and steps made of stainless steel can be noted, as well as large rims of the 20th or 21st diameter of a stylish design, which can be optionally installed instead of the 18th size wheels.
The overall length of the car in the basic version is 4662 mm, the width and height of the car are at the level of 1760 and 1931 mm, respectively. Wheelbase SUV is 2850 mm, and the ground clearance is 210 mm.
Especially for the restyled version of the Mercedes Gelendvagen, the creators have provided several new color options, including such original colors like alien green, tomato red or galactic beam. Otherwise, the appearance of the popular SUV has remained unchanged. As before, the design of the doors is distinguished by external fasteners. Side surfaces body, as well as the line of the roof and hood are almost perfectly even. The adaptive headlights, although they received a bi-xenon filling, retained the classic round shape that has not changed since the start of the model's release. As an indispensable element for any modern car, the 2015-2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Class received daytime running lights made up of LEDs. Thanks to this, the car looks strictly and aggressively, excluding any playfulness in appearance.
The state of affairs with the interior of the car almost completely repeats the situation with its appearance. Only a sophisticated fan of the presented model will be able to detect changes in the interior of the car. It is worth noting that the interior of the Mercedes G-class has long ceased to be a spartan design of a utilitarian off-road conqueror. The salon of the modern Gelendvagen meets the driver and passengers with high-quality finishing materials, impeccable build quality and thoughtful ergonomics. The developers offer the future owner to choose one of 11 types of leather, inserts from several types of natural polished wood, carbon or aluminum. The multifunctional steering wheel is equipped with an electric drive and has a comfortable section. The dashboard consists of a pair of huge wells with tachometer and speedometer scales at the bottom. Between them is an 11-inch display for displaying information about the current state of the vehicle's components and assemblies. Another monitor, with a diagonal of almost 18 inches, crowns the center console, on which there was also a place for a block with control buttons for on-board functionality and SUV electronics.
In general, the number of various service functions and systems is amazing. Comand Online multimedia complex combines a navigation device and an entertainment center capable of playing audio and video files of all the most popular formats. In addition, it is equipped with Bluetooth protocol, USB and AUX connectors, as well as the ability to access the global Internet. The new Mercedes Gelendvagen 2015-2016 is equipped with parking sensors with rear-view cameras and four-zone climate control.

Concerning technical side updated version models, then, perhaps, it was here that the main attention of the company's engineers was directed. All power units installed under the hood of the updated Mercedes Gelendvagen have increased in power. Thanks to the use of the Start-Stop system, which is installed regardless of the vehicle configuration, the engines of the German SUV have become more economical.
The diesel three-liter V6 engine, designed for the Mercedes G350 d version, develops maximum power 245 HP with a peak torque of 600 Nm. Such an engine accelerates a large and heavy SUV from standstill to 100 km/h in 8.9 seconds.
