Mercedes-Benz has confirmed a new G-Class variant called “Little G”. The German carmaker has released the first official teaser, which outlines the upcoming model.<\/p>\n
As seen from the teaser, the new “little G” seems to carry forward the old-school boxy design of the current G-Class. It is also expected to feature the traditional boot-mounted spare wheel.<\/p>\n
The teaser was released during the unveiling of the new Mercedes CLA Class Concept by company CEO Ola Kallenius. The Mercedes boss stated that the little G will “take the character of the big & brash G-Class and condense it down into a more compact package.”<\/p>\n
Apart from the teaser though, no other details have been released about the “little G”. Having said that, reports do suggest that the new model will be positioned below the G-Wagon, will come standard with four-wheel-drive, undercut the current G-Class pricing and maybe even offer a pure electric version with the tech borrowed from the upcoming EQG.<\/p>\n
The upcoming Little G from Mercedes is said to take on the likes of the Jeep Wrangler and the lower-spec versions of the Defender.<\/p>\n
