  • Reliability (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    While generally robust, the G-Class can be prone to electrical gremlins and some mechanical issues, especially as it ages. Regular maintenance is crucial.
  • Maintenance (2)
    2 out of 5 stars
    Maintenance and repair costs are exceptionally high, as expected for a high-performance luxury SUV. Parts can be expensive and specialized.
  • Technology (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The infotainment system feels dated compared to modern Mercedes models. While it has essential features, it lacks the latest connectivity and driver-assistance systems found in newer vehicles.
  • Comfort (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The ride can be stiff, especially with the AMG suspension. Seats are supportive, but the cabin can be noisy at speed. It's a comfortable cruiser for short distances, but not a long-haul luxury sedan.
  • Dynamics (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    Despite its age and boxy design, the G 63 offers immense power and surprisingly capable off-road performance. On-road dynamics are compromised by its high center of gravity and truck-like steering.

2017 Mercedes-Benz G-Class Overview

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz G-Class, a legendary off-road icon with a distinguished heritage, continues its reign as a potent blend of uncompromising capability and unashamed luxury. While its boxy, utilitarian exterior design remains largely unchanged for decades, the interior and underlying technology have seen evolutionary updates, making it a compelling, albeit niche, proposition in the modern automotive landscape. For 2017, the G-Class solidified its position as the pinnacle of rugged refinement, offering a driving experience unlike any other.

Highlights

  • Engine: The heart of the 2017 G-Class beating in most models is the robust 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine, delivering a formidable 416 horsepower and 450 lb-ft of torque. This powerplant, shared with other AMG-derived Mercedes-Benz models, provides exhilarating acceleration and the grunt necessary for serious off-road endeavors. For those seeking ultimate performance, the AMG G65 housed a colossal 6.0-liter biturbo V12 engine producing a staggering 621 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque, making it one of the most powerful SUVs available. Both engines were paired with a smooth-shifting 7-speed automatic transmission.

  • Safety Features: Mercedes-Benz equipped the 2017 G-Class with a suite of advanced safety technologies designed to protect occupants and enhance driving confidence:

    • Distronic Plus (Adaptive Cruise Control): This system automatically maintains a set distance from the vehicle ahead, adjusting speed to prevent collisions.
    • Blind Spot Assist: Alerts the driver to vehicles in their blind spots, reducing the risk of lane-change accidents.
    • Parking Assist (PARKTRONIC): Aids the driver in parking maneuvers by providing audible and visual cues, and in some cases, automatic steering.
    • Trailer Stability Assist: Helps to counteract trailer sway during towing.
    • Electronic Stability Program (ESP): Works in conjunction with the ABS and traction control systems to help prevent skidding and loss of control.
  • Summary of Trims: The 2017 G-Class was offered in distinct trims, each catering to specific performance and luxury aspirations:

    • G550: This is the foundational model, showcasing the potent 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine. It offers a luxurious interior and excellent off-road capability, making it the most accessible entry into G-Class ownership.
    • AMG G63: Stepping up the performance, the AMG G63 features a more powerful version of the biturbo V8, tuned for enhanced acceleration and a more aggressive exhaust note. It also boasts AMG-specific styling enhancements and sport-tuned suspension.
    • AMG G65: The undisputed king of the G-Class lineup, the G65 is distinguished by its monstrous biturbo V12 engine, delivering unparalleled power and a truly exclusive experience. It also receives exclusive interior and exterior appointments.
  • Other Notable Aspects:

    • Unwavering Off-Road Prowess: The G-Class's legendary off-road capabilities are underpinned by its body-on-frame construction, three independently locking differentials, and substantial ground clearance. These features allow it to tackle extreme terrain with confidence and capability that few other luxury SUVs can match.
    • Iconic Boxy Design: The instantly recognizable, angular silhouette of the G-Class is a defining characteristic. This timeless design language evokes a sense of ruggedness and exclusivity, setting it apart from the more aerodynamic and rounded shapes of its contemporaries.
    • Luxurious and Spacious Interior: Despite its utilitarian exterior, the cabin of the 2017 G-Class is a sanctuary of premium materials, exquisite craftsmanship, and ample space. Leather upholstery, wood accents, and a user-friendly infotainment system create a comfortable and sophisticated environment.

What to Expect

Owning a 2017 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is typically an experience defined by durability and prestige. These vehicles are built to last, with a robust construction that has proven its mettle over decades. However, this longevity comes with a commitment to regular and specialized maintenance. Expect to follow Mercedes-Benz's recommended service intervals diligently. Given the complexity and high-performance nature of the engines, particularly in the AMG variants, maintenance will likely be more involved and costly than that of a standard luxury sedan.

Insurance costs for the G-Class will also be on the higher side, reflecting its premium brand, powerful engines, and specialized components. Comprehensive coverage is highly recommended. While generally reliable, as with any high-performance luxury vehicle, the potential for costly repairs exists, especially as the vehicle ages. However, many owners find the unique ownership experience and enduring appeal of the G-Class to be well worth the investment.

Potential Considerations

While the 2017 G-Class offers a compelling package, there are certain aspects buyers should be aware of:

  • On-Road Dynamics: Despite its luxurious interior, the G-Class's off-road-oriented design, including its solid front axle, results in a less refined on-road driving experience compared to more modern, car-based luxury SUVs. Body roll in corners is noticeable, and the steering, while communicative, can feel heavy at lower speeds.
  • Fuel Economy: The powerful V8 and V12 engines, while providing impressive performance, are not known for their fuel efficiency. Expect relatively low MPG figures, which will contribute to higher running costs.
  • Aging Interior Technology (Relative to Newer Models): While luxurious, the infotainment system and interior design, while updated, still retain some of the more traditional Mercedes-Benz layouts of the era. Newer G-Class models (post-2019 redesign) offer significantly more advanced and integrated technology.
  • Visibility: The upright seating position and thick pillars, while contributing to the G-Class's distinctive profile, can create some blind spots, particularly when maneuvering in tight spaces.

Overall Summary

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz G-Class stands as a testament to enduring design and unparalleled capability. It's a vehicle that unapologetically embraces its rugged roots while coddling its occupants in a lavish interior. For those who prioritize true off-road prowess and a commanding road presence, and are willing to accept the associated maintenance and running costs, the G-Class offers a unique and highly rewarding ownership experience. It's not simply an SUV; it's a statement, a lifestyle choice, and a legend in its own right.
