How the G 580 Gets Around 

Powering the G 580 with EQ Technology is a 116-kWh liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery pack powering dual motors that combined deliver 579 horsepower and 859 lb-ft of torque.

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class is an icon. It is the most aspirational vehicle ever created, sporting optimal agility and capability that goes beyond measure.   

However, one may be surprised that it now comes in a battery-electric version. The G 580 with EQ Technology replaces its famed internal combustion driveline for a fully electric system.

Welcome to a new design era for Mercedes-Benz!  An era that takes efficiency and style to a new level. It starts with the all-new CLA.  

Making its world premiere in Rome, Italy, the all-new CLA was introduced as the “cleverest and most efficient series production car ever made by Mercedes-Benz,” according to the Mercedes-Benz USA communications team. It is set to be an “innovation powerhouse” that “captivates the soul with its striking athletic design.”

The Mercedes-Benz GLE comes from a lineage that began 28 years ago, showing that Mercedes-Benz can produce a family-friendly SUV. The tradition continues with the 2025 GLE 450e 4MATIC,® the plug-in hybrid version of Mercedes-Benz's most sophisticated and luxurious mid-size SUV. 

With every GLE now electrified, the GLE 450e 4MATIC® adds a plug-in element that enables more driving without the use of gasoline. Powering this system is a combination of a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder internal combustion engine and a permanently excited synchronous electric motor.

Nearly every global automaker offers vehicles with all- or four-wheel drive, but those systems aren’t created equally across the board.

Paired with beefy vehicles like the G-Class and GLE-Class, the system offers near-unbeatable off-road performance while maintaining the luxurious ride quality and handling Mercedes buyers expect.
