Mercedes-Benz has finally taken the wraps off of the new “Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ Technology.” Yeah, it’s a mouthful, but it’s basically a new electric G-Wagon. It looks a lot like the G-Wagon you know and love, but with an electric powertrain and a battery. It’s not the only electric SUV out there, however, and there are some great ones — like the Rivian R2.
As mentioned, the G580 carries the torch of the G-Wagon. It has that big square design, round headlights at the front, and a generally rugged look to it. It has a flat roof and barely a curve on its exterior body anywhere. At the front, you’ll find a new grille with the Mercedes-Benz logo in the center. The vehicle measures in at 182 inches long, 76 inches wide, and 78 inches high.
Rivian has a slightly different approach to interior design. The Rivian R2 also looks quite rugged, with strong seat coverings and big displays at the front. There’s a 15.6-inch infotainment display, and while it doesn’t support CarPlay or Android Auto, it does have Rivian’s own software built into it, which owners generally love. Rivian has another trick up its sleeve, though — both the front and rear seats on the R2 can fold down flat, providing enough room for an air mattress.
