The rain of the last few days has eroded the path so that it is now no more than

“I survived the Schöckl” into the bark of a beech tree. That just about says it all.
Situated to the south of the Alps, the Schöckl is the birthplace of the G-Class –
and one of the toughest off-road proving grounds in the world.
Can it really be that demanding? As if in answer, a G-Class suddenly bursts through
the undergrowth, negotiates the rocky ascent noisily, treating knee-deep holes in
its path with complete indifference as it goes. No sooner has it reached the top, the
professional driver at the wheel hurls the G-Class back down the slope again. The
G-Class covers at least 30,000 kilometres under conditions such as these during the
test phase. Because a vehicle that has survived the worst that the Schöckl can throw
at it will be able to take just about any other challenge it may encounter in its stride.

Chassis & suspension
With its ladder-type frame, rigid axles, long suspension travel and high ground clearance of 19.6 cm,
the G-Class is well-equipped to cope with even the most challenging terrain.
Ladder-type frame. The design of the G-Class, which U-shaped half-shells which are welded together and water, road salt or even desert sand. An important

longitudinal members, each of which consists of two way, the body offers practically no point of attack for operating in off-road terrain.
Steering. The power steering of the G-Class is specially
designed for the rigours of off-road use. It owes its
resilience and durability to the absence of vulnerable
steering gaiters or rubber bellows. What’s more, the power
steering offers a high degree of driving comfort and uses
the traditional recirculating-ball principle to prevent shocks
from being transmitted to the driver’s hands when
negotiating obstacles.
The G-Class is exceptionally stable and durable thanks to its ladder-type frame. *Please read the disclaimer.
22
Rigid axles. The chassis of the G-Class offers several
advantages over independent suspension which is designed
for on-road vehicles. It is based on two rigid axles, each
of which is controlled by two solid longitudinal arms and
one transverse control arm. Coil springs with long spring
travel ensure good axle articulation, high ground clearance
and outstanding traction off the road as well as agile and
comfortable handling on it. High-performance gas-filled
shock absorbers prevent any see-sawing effect from
building up while two anti-roll bars, optimised in line with
the vehicle’s performance, kerb weight and payload,
effectively reduce the body roll typically suffered by off-
road vehicles during cornering. As both wheels of an
axle are connected by high-strength steel tubes, their
camber is always constant. The high degree of axle
articulation and the even distribution of the wheel load
across each axle enable ground clearance to be
maintained at all times – even in the case of large
obstacles – and are beneficial with regard to traction, too.
These advantages also apply when negotiating
challenging off-road terrain.
Rigid axles are extremely resilient, even when subjected to heavy loads during off-road driving, and offer constant ground clearance as well as optimum traction. *Please read the disclaimer.

Differential locks. The three fully lockable differential locks
which can be engaged electrically ensure that the G-Class
can even cope with challenging terrain in which only one
wheel is able to gain traction. During extreme off-road
use, it is possible to lock the front axle differential and the
rear axle differential as well as the centre differential in the
transfer case. The locks are engaged in accordance with
the increasing need for traction by means of three switches
in the centre console. 4ETS and ESP® are automatically
switched off when the locks are engaged. With the
differentials fully locked, exactly the same rotational
speed is found at both axles and at each wheel. In this
fully locked condition, the vehicle can proceed even if only
one wheel has traction. This means that the G-Class is
able to free itself from what would otherwise be an
inextricable situation.
The three electrically engageable fully lockable differential locks play a key role in the off-road capability of the G-Class. *Please read the disclaimer.
