Mercedes-Benz’s all-electric EQ line-up showcases the German marque’s future in EVs. That expansion will also see an electric version of its boxy SUV classic, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class which is expected to be launched in 2024. The Gelandewagen is built like a tank (except in Australia’s desert) and those armoured crawlers aren’t known for being environmentally friendly or friendly even. For Mercedes-Benz though, turning the G-Class into an electric SUV ensures that the classic remains while bein
