Mercedes-Benz Unveils the G 580 with EQ Technology: An Electrifying Off-Road Experience
The German automotive giant has launched the Mercedes-Benz G 580 with EQ technology, specifically the EDITION ONE version, in Vietnam. The recommended retail price is set at 8,680,000,000 VND. Currently, there are only two units of the Mercedes-Benz G 580 with EQ technology available in the country, both of which are the limited EDITION ONE models. With this addition, Vietnamese customers will have the option to choose between the Mercedes-AMG G 63 and the Mercedes-Benz G 580 EQ when it comes to the G-Class.
The G 580 EQ EDITION ONE is the first limited all-electric version of the G-Class, marking a significant turning point as it introduces the era of electric off-road experiences in Vietnam. To ensure that this electric variant lives up to the G-Class’s renowned off-road capabilities, Mercedes-Benz has rigorously tested the G 580 EQ in a variety of conditions, ranging from rough and slippery terrain to flooded roads, icy conditions, and sand, with temperatures varying from over 50°C in the African desert to below -30°C in the Swedish tundra.
MERCEDES-BENZ G 580 EQ EDITION ONE: CHALLENGING THE OFF-ROAD LIMITS
The EDITION ONE version available in Vietnam boasts a special design package that enhances its modern and unique character, featuring blue accents and sporty AMG wheels with a distinctive 10-spoke design.
Standard exterior color options for the Mercedes-Benz G 580 EQ include MANUFAKTUR South Sea Green magno (591), MANUFAKTUR Classic Grey non-metallic (124), MANUFAKTUR Opalite White bright (885), MANUFAKTUR Opalite White magno (659), and Obsidian Black (197)
Standard interior color for the Mercedes-Benz G 580 EQ: Two-tone Nappa leather in Silver Pearl Grey/Black (868)
ICONIC DESIGN EMBODIES SOPHISTICATION AND POWER
The Mercedes-Benz G 580 EQ retains the iconic design DNA of the G-Class, featuring bold and unmistakable square lines. Its body is built on a ladder-type frame, a signature element of the G-Class lineage. Additionally, design optimizations have been made to enhance aerodynamics, including:
The EDITION ONE model is complemented by additional design packages such as the AMG Line, Night Package, and MANUFAKTUR Logo Package, featuring black “G” logos. The optional Black Panel grille adds a modern touch while staying true to the G-Class heritage. The slightly raised hood and subtle air outlets on the rear wheel arches contribute to improved aerodynamics.
The vehicle is equipped with exclusive 20-inch AMG sports wheels featuring a 10-spoke design unique to the EDITION ONE model. The MANUFAKTUR design package offers a personalized welcome logo, while the black MANUFAKTUR door handles with embossed logos provide infinite customization options, allowing owners to showcase their unique style.
Inside the cabin, the G 580 EQ exudes class and sophistication, blending advanced technology with meticulous craftsmanship. The EDITION ONE model is enhanced by the SUPERIOR Line design package, featuring premium Nappa leather in a two-tone combination of Silver Pearl Grey and Black, accented by distinctive blue stitching.
The front seats feature the Active Multicontour Seat Plus package, which includes the ENERGIZING Plus package with various integrated massage programs, 3-level seat heating, and seat ventilation for both the driver and front passenger.
Additional features include MANUFAKTUR magma grey seat belts, a multi-color interior lighting system, the latest MBUX infotainment system for a seamless and inspiring connected experience, and a Burmester® 3D surround sound system with 18 speakers and 760 watts of power, elevating the in-cabin audio experience. The inclusion of G-ROAR further enhances the excitement within the vehicle.
UNRIVALED OFF-ROAD PERFORMANCE: REDEFINING OFF-ROADING IN THE ELECTRIC ERA
The G 580 EQ is not just an electric version of the G-Class, but a significant leap forward in off-road capabilities. With four independent electric motors generating a combined output of up to 432 kW (587 hp) and a staggering 1,164 Nm of torque, this vehicle delivers unprecedented performance:
G-TURN mode enables the vehicle to turn 360 degrees on the spot, even on soft or uneven terrain.
G-STEERING mode significantly reduces the turning radius when driving off-road.
The Off-road Crawl function is similar to cruise control but specifically designed for rough terrain.
Impressive incline climbing capability of up to 45 degrees.
Stable handling on slopes with inclines of up to 35 degrees.
Water wading depth of up to 850 mm, surpassing its combustion-engine competitors by 150 mm.
The G-ROAR system produces a unique driving sound, providing a realistic and engaging driving experience.
360° camera with “Transparent Bonnet” technology offers a clear view of the vehicle’s surroundings.
The lithium-ion battery, with a capacity of 116 kWh, is integrated into the frame, resulting in a lower center of gravity and an impressive driving range of 434-473 km (WLTP) for this electric off-roader.
SETTING THE STANDARD IN ITS SEGMENT
The Mercedes-Benz G 580 EQ limited EDITION ONE has made its official debut in Vietnam, and in the near future, the standard G 580 EQ model is expected to be introduced to the domestic market by the end of 2025. The pricing for each version is as follows: G 580 EQ EDITION ONE: 8,680,000,000 VND and G 580 EQ: 7,750,000,000 VND.
With its combination of iconic power, pioneering technology, and exceptional off-road capabilities, this vehicle is not just a means of transportation but a statement of a sophisticated lifestyle.
For over 45 years, the G-Class has continuously evolved while staying true to its original spirit, captivating car enthusiasts worldwide, including those in Vietnam.
