Looks like a big ML, with GM's SUVs like styling.
Unusuall Cruiser but i think it will be pretty strong thoug.
Well Wait and see for the official images of the G Class a lot sooner.
I think it will not be as bad looking as it has been photoshoped here.

No matter what it looks like [which will probably be a larger ML...] I just hope they make the interior more comfortable than the last generation. You would think a company like MB would have the ability to not make a car so hard to get in and out of and so darn uncomfortable.
Of course though....lets all wait until the AutoSpies exclusive!! due out in two days......wait for it........yes! "MB announces a 600hp GL65! Oh, my goodness, is this the one that will wipe the slate clean! Look out BMW and Porsche!"
Come on 001, I know you have that story just ich'n to get out. Actually, if you look at the rear of that picutre, it lookes like the AMG version.

Overall design is not very unique. Unless it offers bullet-proof windows, dent-proof door panels, satellite TV/free-internet access, 0-60 in 4.5 sec, retractable wings and no maintenance ... ever! than I do not see the point in spending the money on this car.

Doesn't matter what it looks like, there are few real competitors and MB has a strong brand. However given MB appears to be trying to put a little more passion into its designs I'd have expected something more aggressive and visually challenging.
Looks like the design teams of Jeep (ref Cherokee, Commander, Liberty) had some input into the MB G class stance and rear end

This new Merc G class looks good anyway even if the design is not ground breaking or stunning..
Nissan armada, JEEP cherokee inspired styling not bad .looks decent enough.
The new G can be a seroius threat to the LEXUS LX470 and infiniti QX series.
