The Mercedes G-Class is still with us for 2012. Having undergone no major changes, it still features a rather square exterior. A single version, the G550, is offered with a 5.5L V8 that can take the G from 0-100 km/h in less than 10 seconds. Despite its uncomplicated appearance, the G-Class is equipped with all of Mercedes’ safety and luxury features. The G55 AMG is off the menu this year.
