Comments of this past auction
Technik: Die G-Klasse (oder auch G-Modell; G steht für Geländewagen) ist eine Modellreihe von Mercedes-Benz, die seit 1979 produziert wird. Sie wurde in Kooperation mit dem österreichischen Steyr-Daimler-Puch-Konzern entwickelt und wird in Graz in der Steiermark hergestellt. Bis 2000 wurde die Klasse in Österreich und einigen anderen Ländern unter der Marke Puch G verkauft. Die Karosserieform des Fahrzeuges wurde zwischen 1979 und 2018 kaum verändert, technisch erfuhr es aber immer wieder Verbesserungen und Aktualisierungen. Diese betrafen vor allem Motoren, das Interieur und Sicherheitsmerkmale. Die Produktion des geschlossenen Modells mit kurzem Radstand wurde 2012 eingestellt, die Fertigung des Cabriolets 2013. 2018 präsentierte Mercedes-Benz eine komplett neue Generation, an der das äußere Erscheinungsbild nur geringfügig verändert wurde.
