Mansory Unleashes a Bold Makeover on the Electric Mercedes-Benz G 580 with EQ Technology

The Mercedes-Benz G 580 EQ Gets the Mansory Treatment

Mercedes-Benz has energized its legendary G-Class lineup with the all-electric G 580 with EQ Technology, pushing the iconic off-roader into a new era of luxury EVs. But now, even this futuristic G-Wagen variant has been reimagined by none other than Mansory, renowned worldwide for their daring reinterpretations of high-performance vehicles. The result? A G 580 EQ that turns even more heads on—and off—the road.

Radical Exterior Upgrades by Mansory

Mansory is celebrated—and sometimes critiqued—for their striking body kits, and their take on the electric G-Class leaves no panel untouched. The front fascia boasts a revamped bumper housing distinctive LED daytime running lights (DRLs) and a pronounced chin spoiler for a more assertive presence. The grille is swapped for a custom piece featuring Mansory’s signature pattern and logo centerpiece, while a newly sculpted hood and supplemental LED roof lights above the windshield deliver an unmistakable silhouette.

Unique fender flares signed by Mansory enhance the vehicle’s bold, wide stance. Streamlined side skirts, bespoke mirror caps, and a dramatic rear section—complete with multi-fin diffuser, freshly designed bumper, and an extra set of taillights—set this G 580 EQ apart. Additional enhancements, including a roof-mounted wing, reimagined rear pillars, and an array of Mansory emblems, add to the SUV’s high-profile look. The transformation is capped by a set of massive 24-inch FC.5 forged alloy wheels.

Design Details and Visual Flamboyance

Wearing an all-black paint finish accented with forged carbon elements, this modified G 580 EQ commands instant attention. Flashes of blue on the bodywork and brake calipers amp up visual vitality. Although Mansory’s released images don’t reveal the interior, the brand’s reputation for custom, vivid cabin upgrades leaves room for speculation—a tailored interior could certainly follow.

Performance and Technical Specifications

Underneath its bespoke bodywork, the Mercedes-Benz G 580 with EQ Technology stays true to its heritage. Built on a sturdy ladder-frame chassis, it carries a powerful 116 kWh battery sourced from the EQS Sedan. With a WLTP-rated range of up to 292 miles (470 km) and fast charging capabilities up to 200 kW, this electric SUV is ready for both city streets and rugged terrains.

Four electric motors combine to produce an impressive 580 horsepower (588 ps/432 kW) and a staggering 859 lb-ft (1,164 Nm) of torque. Despite its substantial curb weight of 6,800 pounds (3,085 kg), the G 580 EQ can sprint from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.7 seconds, cementing its status as a performance-luxury SUV that thrives where tradition meets innovation.

Market Positioning and Comparison

The G 580 EQ represents Mercedes’ commitment to electrified luxury off-roading, rivalling high-end electric SUVs and EV conversions. Mansory’s interpretation makes this already exclusive model even more eye-catching, pushing it firmly into bespoke, collector-oriented territory. While the electric G-Class retains its off-road superiority, Mansory’s enhancements elevate its street presence—albeit with polarizing aesthetics.

What’s Next for the Electric G-Wagen?

This bold makeover marks Mansory’s first foray into Mercedes’ electric G-Class, but likely not its last. As luxury SUVs continue embracing electrification, enthusiasts can expect further Mansory-tuned editions—some potentially even more extreme. For now, the G 580 EQ by Mansory stands as a testament to both the enduring appeal of the G-Class and the limitless potential of tuning in the EV era.
