2002 Mercedes-Benz G500

Tulu of workers in the blue Mercedes-Benz G500 brought together the Austrian factory "Gelandewagen: Robust und Exclusive" that says there's a sign.

This point, The Mercedes off-roader character and appeal, the marketing department could dream of anything more accurately than it describes. Previously known as the gelandewagen, the defining characteristics of this tool, in fact, the nature and exclusivity intact.

Because otherwise it's a good thing for Mercedes, G500 born again doesn't make much sense. Mainstream Mercedes sports-which Service Line M-Class than the smaller, slower, heavier and more expensive.

The G-wagen was produced in military units of the world for 22 years and mostly original Hummer sold to the existing pattern and the chip. Sturdy, strong and powerful means, and it certainly was. Like the Hummer, the Gelandewagen, a status symbol for rich people who want to look rich, first in the form of mastery of the sport, has made an impact in front of everyone's eyes.

In this country, used trucks in New Mexico 130,000 $ was imported in very small numbers and sold for many years by a man more clever.

Introduced in 1997, The Mercedes M-Class line of sport organizations is now firmly established, therefore the head office, it's time to sell in U.S. showrooms this revised gelandewagen felt. G-130.000 dollars wagens the Americans who bought new Mercedes G500 assigned 1500% 73.144 completely installed with import dollar price tag that they would give up the decision they don't doubt.

Nevertheless, the 22-year-old off-to the reader it's too expensive. This high cost is not a deterrent, at least until recently in the U.S. market. So now this new G500 M-Class, custom Mercedes sport-ute. Report-used climb in the Rocky Mountains as the stage for music videos, we expect to see the number of G500 wish to status symbol. (Mercedes, celebrity buyers, 200 G-wagens dedicates.)

G500, the traditional body-top, off-road truck design. Based on the unusually sturdy a frame ladder. It uses old-school solid axles front and rear, suspended by coil springs and is connected to the heavy links. Full-day, four-wheel drive system there are two basic modes: "rainy day at the club" and "mountain Goat". Rainy day, four cool for versatility, four-wheel traction and stability control uses. Really rugged mountain goats, the cockpit is individually lockable center, rear and front differentials, and to overcome almost any challenge with a low-range gear has a team. In low range the traction and stability control has been disabled.

Unadorned, unvarnished steel body, closing costs and crumpled sheet metal design from the School of traditional road. Handy in addition to the roots, G-wagen, except for a time when the Allies it seems like they are sports cars. Upright and honestly have not changed since 1979 and we think it will appeal to the metal plate.

Produced on the same assembly line unlike the military version, this new G-wagen, including everything in everything, leather everywhere, shredded walnuts joints, the C-class sedan with a few lines from part of a GPS navigation system and full luxury treatment. .

G500, when you close the door it makes unprecedented, so it appears to be a bank vault and a tone sounds. About 5500 pounds, one is much heavier. Ml500 narrower and shorter time compared to the same engine (without the spare tire on the tailgate), the G500 weighs about 550 pounds.

G of weight and this tall, narrow jeopardizing the rates of the dynamic capabilities. Even there's modest body roll in return, and feels tight in the corners too. Mercedes, 292 horsepower and 336 pound-feet, although tarkan's standard 5.0-liter V-8, 10-m speed, V-6 motor even slower than the ml expects to reach a top speed of 60 mph.

The G-wagen is heavy, suspension is quite comfortable despite the speed and impacts from excessive internal. Miraculously, the cabin remains silent even the wind slams straight into the glass.

Predictably, G500 off-road courage means compromises on the way. Recirculation-ball steering, is ideal for a rocky trail, but there's a feeling that is dead slow and on the flooring. And an unusual amount of gas pedal travel and effort. This 73.145 an injured right foot in the woods to prevent the launch a rock from the top of your car dollar. On-road, just plain feels resistant.

However, the G500, a Hummer or perhaps Range Rover owners that can be considered by owners level of comfort and offers easy handling. Each of them on the market is the best off-roader. Mercedes, Hummer rude and impolite from $ 20,000 cheaper and does not emit an unpleasant diesel fumes in the parking lot of the Country Club.

What didn't make sense what if? G500, real sports vehicle / off-roaming agreements. Like money, and the neighbor doesn't have his own money.

M-Class more Nov

Mercedes-Benz M-Class off-road ability and on-road comfort between the sport-utility section in the "final compromise" represent claims that. 2002 model year, too many changes have been made in this line of sporting. Great news, a more powerful 5.0 liter V-8 that comes with the ML500 model.

The company's "ultimate reconciliation" may be right about the claim of. Based fully independent suspension and traction control four-wheel drive system on the trunk with the M-Class, Buyers are increasingly on-road ride quality with an equally high use and off-road ability I need to offer. The problem is, M-Class, although it is good on dirt and pavement isn't perfect either.

There is a solution to Mercedes, but the next generation m-class will not come until a few years - it's the only way car, better performance, and lower the weight of the pavement.

Mercedes, 4.3-liter V-8 with ml430 instead of, 288-horsepower, 5.0-liter V-8 will be powered by ml500, and this is also the old engine there will be a 20 horsepower increase. 5.0 liter makes peak torque of 325 total even more. Mercedes, with a higher final drive ratio that is 0.3 seconds faster when compared to estimates of ml500 ml430. You cannot feel an improvement of 0.3 seconds from the driver's seat, and we were thinking of ml430 always that already was very fast. 750.500 ml430 ml500 last year, according to the base price of $ 45.595 $. The cheapest M-Class model ml320 in the 215-hp, 3.2-liter V-6, unchanged compared to previous years. This model last year, more than 500 dollars.

All m classes, compared with the ML500 ML430 for a light weight (178 lbs) gained. The reason for this is new with extra ventilation holes for rear passengers Automatic Climate control system, window covering, curtain airbags and audio system including additional speakers to the new features depends on.
