Daimler CEO Kang Songlin recently revealed to the outside world, the classic Mercedes-Benz G-Class will not be eliminated, the change identity to become a pure electric vehicle. Meanwhile, head of Daimler digital transition Sasha • Palunboge also pushing relevant comments posted on special, this is the first time publicly confirmed the existence of Daimler electric G-Class.
Currently, in addition to replacing V6 diesel engine and V8 gasoline to 100 percent electric conventional system outside the external details of the electric G-Class is also very well aware of less. However, we can extrapolate from Mercedes-Benz other electric vehicles.
EQ Mercedes electric sub-brand has launched EQV EQC and electric vehicles and the like, as well as future EQA, EQE and EQS other models will be released, and as such, the next stage of the G electric cars may be the name of a great EQG of sale, and has customized specifically for electric vehicle styling.
Further, as EQC, G-level electric vehicles is also likely four-wheel drive, powered by two electric motors, one on the front axle, the more efficient at low speed, a discharge in the rear axle to provide more power during acceleration.
Although this electric SUV has not released the official specifications, but it should provide more than the standard version of the G-Class maximum power of 210kW and peak torque to 601Nm more, which is important for car relatively higher electric SUV is necessary. As for mileage, battery life is estimated to range from between 400 km and 595 km EQA the EQE.
However, the performance improvements become a reality if it is bound to lift the vehicle manufacturing cost. Because EQG not only the most expensive Mercedes-Benz G-Class-derived cars, but also because the G-Class itself is a heavy-duty off-road vehicles, so it needs a larger and more expensive battery pack.
electric version of the G-Class will be when the market in the future, Mercedes-Benz did not give a specific time, but said “the future is still a long way to go.”
