Peerless. Fearless. Timeless.

A legend you can believe.

What drives us to create a vehicle with seemingly limitless aptitude and unwavering fortitude? The same spirit of adventure that dared to put man in motion 125 years ago with a radical self-propelled invention called a Motorwagen, more commonly known as the very first automobile. Ever since that day, the engineers of Mercedes-Benz have repeatedly surpassed the boundaries and reimagined the possibilities not just of their own vehicles, but for automobiles across the globe. More than 30 years ago, they set out to develop a vehicle that offered unmatched capability along with unexpected civility. The result was a vehicle so true to its objectives, so confident in its performance, and so comfortable in its mission that it proved to be as endearing as it is enduring. And after three decades of production and technological evolution, it remains undaunted, undiluted, and unceasingly contemporary. Beneath its iconic design, it continues to combine king- of-the -hill competence with state - of-the -art innovation, in a vehicle that is still lovingly crafted almost entirely by hand. The 2011 G-Class is living proof that how far you can go is a direct reflection of where you come from. Its a legend you can believe in, and live for yourself.

Every exploration leads to an advanced civilization.

A world of convenience. All at your command. Whetheune2cu243(s)1-3(i)94(12ti,thM t2024

It feels like no other SUV. Because its built like no other SUV.
Painstakingly crafted. For your driving pleasure. The unique way a G-Class feels is the direct result of the way its made. From its rigid, wax-flooded ladder frame to its supple Premium leather upholstery, every G-Class is welded, bolted, wired, fitted and finished by hand. The pride, precision and personal attention of the human touch is one reason it delivers such lasting comfort. Abundant luxury is another. Four heated seats, plus Active Ventilated front seats, conquer any climate. A leathertrimmed dash, ambient cabin lighting and hand-polished wood trim create a soothing environment. And its bank-vault-solid construction and limber suspension carry it all with confident grace. The G-Class is hand-built to ruggedly endure the most punishing conditions. Its also lavishly, lovingly crafted to reward you along the way.

Rugged. Every G-Class is crafted almost entirely by hand

in Graz, Austria. Its galvanized steel body is welded at over 6,000 points for strength. Its rigid frame is treated with 50 liters of wax to resist corrosion. From looming its wiring to outfitting its luxurious, roomy cabin, each vehicle it takes over 40 hours to build. But it creates a lifetime of durability.

Refined. Proven in some of the worlds most unforgiving

environments, the automatic climate control offers individual left and right comfort zones plus dual rear-cabin air vents. It also filters dust and pollen from the incoming air. Even the heated rear window shows awareness of its surroundings, staying on longer when ambient temperatures are colder.

Relaxed. Multicontour, heated and Active Ventilated front seats offer precise support and all-season comfort. Each seat also power-adjusts 10 ways and features a 3-position memory, including the drivers power steering column and side mirror positions. The heated rear seats fold down in a 2 3 :1 3 split to create up to 79.5 cu ft of cargo space.11

The G 55 AMG.

Handcrafted horsepower.
One man, one engine. Beyond all the racing trophies earned in the storied legacy
of AMG the high-performance arm of Mercedes -Benz one small plaque tells an even greater story. Affixed atop each AMG engine, it bears the signature of the single master technician who assembled it from race -proven components with his own hands. The superlatively engineered vehicle which houses this engine will go forth to achieve imposing results in virtually every dimension of performance. But no matter what numbers it generates horsepower and pound -feet, mph and rpm, or seconds and gs every measure of a G 55 AMG starts with one.

AMG-developed 5.5-liter V-8. A hand-built vehicle with a handcrafted heart, the supercharged,
liquid-to-air intercooled V-8 of the G 55 AMG outpours an even 500 hp @ 6,100 rpm, and an even more torrential 516 lb-ft of torque @ 2,7004,000 rpm. Accompanied by the unmistakable rumble of a true dual-sidepipe AMG exhaust system, 60 mph arrives in a lightning-quick 5.4 seconds.12

Reinforced transmission. The AMG-calibrated 5-speed automatic transmission easily manages

the copious torque output of the G 55 AMG engine. Driver- adaptive programming delivers crisp shifts, while Touch Shift control allows manual-style shifting. A Shift into Optimum Gear feature provides direct downshifting to the ideal gear for passing or engine-braking down steep inclines.

Enlarged brakes and wheels. Massive 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes feature 13.8" composite
discs in front and13.0" discs at the rear. Lightweight, highly rigid 19 9.5" AMG 5- spoke aluminumalloy wheels fill the exclusive flared wheel arches with beefy 275/55 R19 all- season tires.

Exquisitely finished. The G 55 AMG is fully equipped, with only color and trim requiring your
selection. Hand-stitched designo leather and hand-selected designo Natural Maple wood enrich the cabin, while paint choices include four exclusive designo colors in gloss or matte finishes.

ENDNOTES
1 No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless driving. Please always wear your seat belt. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Best performance in snow is obtained with winter tires. 2 ESP, 4 - ETS, ABS and Brake Assist do not operate when the differential locks are engaged. 3 G 550 equipped with 7-speed automatic transmission. A 5-speed automatic is standard on the G 55 AMG. 4 Off-road driving should only be attempted by drivers with the necessary skill, experience and understanding of the vehicles limits. Locked differentials will limit steering ability. Read Operators Manual before driving off-road or in deep water. 5 WARNING: THE FORCES OF A DEPLOYING AIR BAG CAN CAUSE SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES TO A CHILD UNDER AGE 13.
