What is it? The Mercedes-Benz G580 is a fully electric version of the G-Class off-roader. The company was using the Mercedes-EQ sub-brand for its electric models, now its uses “Mercedes-Benz with EQ Technology”. And what does 580 stand for, you ask (I certainly did)? It doesn’t relate to power, or anything else specific. It’s a long-standing manufacturing number, apparently, denoting a certain level of luxury and performance.
What does it cost? It’s $249,900 plus on-road costs, with a feature-packed Edition One at $299,900 (plus orc). That’s a lot, but next to the V8 version, it’s a bargain. Indeed, the standard G580 is almost $120K cheaper than the G63.
