Apparently, the mid-size SUV will feature a character very similar to the bigger EQS SUV which itself will be available as an AMG version, too. It will have a highly reduced and seamless styling, the obvious high-riding wagon body, and more pronounced wheel arches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daimler has filed applications for triple-digit alphanumerical trademarks for EQE XXX from 250 all the way up to 600, suggesting a slew of variants at various price points and range options. For the tuned versions, however, there are trademark applications for EQE 43, EQE 53, EQE 55, and EQE 63 names, some of which will be used for the AMG offerings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Exterior modifications on the AMG EQE SUV appear to be limited to a lower ride height, AMG wheels, AMG-badged brake callipers and new bumpers \u2013 likely with those small fins at front seen here for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mercedes G 4×4<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Expected later this year as a 2023 model, the second coming of the Mercedes G 4×4 has been spied again, this time hill-climbing near the Arctic Circle in Sweden. One image shows the new G4x4 side by side with a military version of the old generation. Based on the G 500 in Europe and known as the G 550 in the United States, the prototype features a roof rack with auxiliary lights up front and a full-size spare wheel affixed to the tailgate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though its predecessor had side-exit pipes for the exhaust system, the prototype spied today doesn\u2019t show them. Only the G 63 comes with this setup while the G 500 and G 550 keep them hidden from sight, high out of harm\u2019s way for the sake of off-roading. Given the considerable ground clearance of the G-Class 4×4, it doesn\u2019t matter too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Based on the G63 6×6 AMG from a few years ago, those portal axles enabled a ground clearance of 450 millimetres and a fording depth of 1,000 millimetres for the previous-gen model. For reference, the Jeep Wrangler in Rubicon specification offers 274 and 762 millimetres respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Opinions are still divided about what hides under the hood, though. Some say the 4×4 will be elevated to Mercedes-AMG levels of performance while others are more conservative, believing that the G 500 \/ G 550 will serve as the basis for this off-road leviathan. Nevertheless, you\u2019ll be treated to a 4.0-litre V8 engine as well as a pair of turbos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The M176 in the lesser models is rated at 416 horsepower and 610 Nm of torque, translating to 5.9 seconds to 100 km\/h. The M177 from the AMG is punchier at 577 horsepower, 850 Nm and 4.5 seconds. Unfortunately, the G 350d and G 400d have slim to no chances at all of receiving the 4×4 treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nAUTOMEDIA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nAUTOMEDIA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"These are again shots of the Mercedes-AMG EQE SUV, and, no, the car didn\u2019t lose any camouflage since we brought it to you last time.
