New Mercedes G Wagen goes EV - Better than G63 AMG? Detailed First look G Class G580 EQ Tech. In this episode the wraps are off the production electric G Wagen, and Jonny Smith gets a deep dive into the full spec of this 4 motor, 300 mile range torque monster. Although it will sit just below the G63 AMG, the EV model (whose body and chassis are almost identical) promises far better off road ability and more torque than the twin turbo V8.
