Just ask Dodge how hard it was to design a new Challenger, or Chevrolet how much is riding on a new Corvette. Better still, ask Porsche about the conflicting goals and considerations that go into every all-new 911. Then you鈥檒l have a pretty good idea just how risky it was to build an all-new G-wagen after nearly 40 years of success. But fear not, G fans, for Mercedes-Benz has nailed the formula with the 2019 G550, a vehicle that鈥檚 as true to the original as it should be and better in every possible way. 鈥?of closing the doors. Opening the door instead unveils a realm of previously unimagined luxury, space, and attention to detail. There鈥檚 nary a hint of the previous G鈥檚 gussied-up military-vehicle feel but abundant reminders of Mercedes鈥?contemporary (and excellent) interior design themes. The best part, for those of us standing more than six feet tall, is that there鈥檚 finally plenty of legroom in both the front and back seats.
Front and center, you鈥檒l find the differential lock switches, allowing you to choose from modes that suit everything from highway cruising to rock crawling. But as capable as the G-wagen is off-road, that鈥檚 not really what it鈥檚 about, is it? No, the G鈥檚 bravado says you can do it, but it also says you don鈥檛 have to. It says you can afford massive overkill. It doesn鈥檛 apologize for its excess any more than you apologize for your success. In short, it鈥檚 just about the most American thing Germany has ever made. And this is just the G550. For those who like their excess to be truly over the top, there鈥檚 the AMG-fettled G63. Not that the G550 lacks for power, even if the G63 has quite a bit more of it. The V-8 under the G550鈥檚 hood is strong enough to sling the 5,551-pound SUV to 60 mph in just 5.4 seconds.
That鈥檚 quick for a brick. So what makes the G550 an All-Star? All of these things, but also the way all of these things add up to an experience that鈥檚 more than the quotidian, more than just another nice luxury SUV. There鈥檚 something about driving the new G that makes you feel special in a way that only the very best cars do. It鈥檚 something like a cross between a sense of adventure and a sense of occasion鈥攅ven when you鈥檙e just running errands. It鈥檚 the feeling of potential, of what you could do. It鈥檚 like being 20 again, with a whole life ahead of you and the world to discover. Or, as daily news editor Conner Gold put it, 鈥淭his goes against everything I stand for. It鈥檚 fast. It鈥檚 showy. It鈥檚 ostentatious. It makes you stand out like you鈥檙e a celebrity wannabe seeking attention. But I love it. I love the way it feels. I love the way it drives. I love watching the fender-mounted turn signals light up when you drive at night.
