The 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is one of the best cars in the segment and offers not only supreme levels of capabilities but also pioneers in delivering G-Class-leading comfort, luxury, and fit and finish levels inside the cabin.
The 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is one of the best cars in the segment and offers not only supreme levels of capabilities but also pioneers in delivering G-Class-leading comfort, luxury, and fit and finish levels inside the cabin. In addition to this, the G-Class is also available with a powerful powertrain and reliable mechanical parts. The car gets an old school boxy design which gives this SUV a strong road presence. Moreover, the 2020 G Wagon is also known to offer stellar off-road capabilities. The car boasts a powerful engine, a rugged look, and a strong character, which makes it better than most of the rivals.
As there is only a single trim in the G Wagon, we suggest you go for the same as it is geared up with cutting-edge technology and features and a powerful rumbling V8 engine that is sufficient enough to take down some of its rivals with ease. Some of the exceptional features include distance pacing control, remote engine start, memory settings, and THERMOTRONIC automatic dual-zone front air conditioning.

As there is only a single trim in the G Wagon, we suggest you go for the same as it is geared up with cutting-edge technology and features and a powerful rumbling V8 engine that is sufficient enough to take down some of its rivals with ease. Some of the exceptional features include distance pacing control, remote engine start, memory settings, and THERMOTRONIC automatic dual-zone front air conditioning.
Powering the 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a 4.0L V8 engine that delivers 416 hp and 450 lb-ft of peak torque. This engine comes mated to a 9-speed G-Tronic automatic gearbox. This engine feels refined and has a strong power output, which gives it impressive performance levels. In addition to this, the gearbox is smooth and seamless with its shifts. The gear ratios of the gearbox complement the power delivery from the engine and offer an effortless driving experience to the drivers. On the driving dynamics front, the G-Class doesn’t have much going its way. It looks like a breadbox and goes without saying, there is not much aerodynamics in the bodywork.
All this said, the steering response is impressive, and the overall feedback from the steering is better than most other rivals. However, the ‘overall’ dynamics are surely not the best, and rivals like the Range Rover are far more superior in terms of overall driving dynamics. The brakes are good and offer decent stopping power to the vehicle. It is capable of hitting 60 mph from a standstill in just 5.8 seconds and can reach a top speed of 155 mph, which are mind-bending numbers for an SUV of its size and stature.

While comparing the competition, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class may not be the most powerful car in the segment but does offer impressive performance and supreme off-roading capabilities that are capable of giving a hard battle to its competition. The Toyota Land cruiser has the largest engine of the lot, a 5.7L V8 engine. The Land Rover Range Rover cranks out 550 hp, which is the highest in the segment. When it comes to acceleration, Lincoln Navigator takes down its rivals by a considerable margin, with a 0-60 mph time of 5.3 seconds, which is one second faster than some of its rivals. By car standards, it is a year. The Toyota Land cruiser reaches a quarter-mile run in 15.1 seconds, which is the slowest in the segment, while the Mercedes-Benz G Wagon manages to do a 14.3 seconds quarter-mile run. On the other hand, both the G Wagon and Range Rover have a top speed of 155 mph.
Hugely proportioned cars with huge engines are not made for delivering impeccable fuel efficiency. If fuel economy is taken into consideration, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is not the best in the segment. The car gets a claimed fuel economy of 13 MPG for city usage and 14 MPG for highway usage. The rivals, on the other hand, offer better fuel economy levels than the G Wagon. The G Wagon is more of a performance-oriented SUV, certainly not made for fuel efficiency.

Based on the comparison, we do infer that the 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is not the most fuel-efficient car in the segment. While the performance is great, the G-Class does miss out on some important points in the fuel economy department. The Range Rover finds its position on the top of the table with 16 MPG in the city, 21 MPG on the highway, and 21 MPG when combined. The Lincoln Navigator also performs pretty impressively in spite of having the smallest tank of the bunch. Next in line is the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser, with its moderate tank size, it is capable of covering 319.8 miles in the city and 418.2 miles on the highway. The Mercedes-Benz G Wagon with its below-average fuel efficiency stays in the last position.
With the launch of the 2020 model, the brand is now offering a completely new package with a much better cabin. The cabin is well-built, and the comfort levels are better than most other rivals. The quality of the plastics used inside the cabin is top-notch, and the fit and finish levels are some of the best in the segment. High seating height makes moving in and out of the vehicle an extremely easy affair. The seats at the front can be electrically adjusted and offer supreme comfort levels with good under-thigh and lumbar support. The upholstery feels premium and is of high quality.
The rear seat bench is spacious, and the comfort level is better than most other rivals. The windows at the front and at the rear are big and large, thus enabling a lot of light to enter inside the cabin. The automatic climate control is easy to use, and the overall performance is great. The cabin gets cooled in no time and rear seats get dedicated AC vents. Having said that, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class gets a touchscreen infotainment system with features like inbuilt navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, etc. Other features like the COMAND system with a central controller are also on offer.Â

In comparison, the Toyota Land Cruiser is the heaviest car in the segment with a curb weight of massive 5,815 lbs. However, the Lincoln Navigator is the longest and the widest car in the segment. The Mercedes-Benz G 550 is also the lightest car of the bunch weighing 5,724 lbs, which in turn gives an exceptional power to weight ratio in its class.

The cabin is comfortable and spacious. In all, the Land Cruiser may be a more reliable and easy-to-afford vehicle, however, it is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz G-Class that offers higher levels of comfort and luxury.

The cabin is packed with a lot of upscale materials that look and feel opulent.
However, the only downside is the price tag it comes with. On the whole, the Lincoln Navigator is one of the most celebrated cars from the automaker. On the other hand, the G-wagon seems to offer a spot on luxury cabin and performance, and all these perks come at a really reasonable price.
The Land Rover is one of those vehicle brands that has the longest history of making top-notch 4 wheel drive vehicles and offers a strong character and supreme luxury levels inside the cabin.
