ONLY A G-CLASS CAN JUDGE A G-CLASS

Electric G-Testing Series

Over two years ago, we sent the Concept EQG back into the late 1970s to experience a wild Sci-Fi space-opera, announcing the idea of an electric G-Class to the world. Now, it’s successor continues its journey through time. 

We've pushed the electric G-Class to its limits, from the Arctic Circle to the challenging terrains of Schöckl, proving once again there's no ordinary G-Class project.

What happens when the electric G-Class travels through time to meet its ancestors from the past? Right, it’s going to be judged.

The icons go on three adventures in different climatic conditions. From relaxed cows on mountains over spectacular wildlife observations in the plains all the way to terrified snowmen in the cold – the electric G-Class is tested in every off-road terrain. But watch for yourself.
