I bought one of these in Australia NT. I Absolutly love it. Comfort in the bush. I have taken this all over the farm all 3 million acres crossing creeks and rough as guts terrain everywhere. Doesn’t let you down and always comfortable.

Meanwhile Toyota Hilux is offered with a 275hp V6, TRD off road package and much more reliability for 10k less .. i think i know which one would i pick ..

I like how they are so disgusted by the idea of Merc making a utility vehicle, like, come on guys, the G Wagon as been used as a work truck for years, the Vito and Sprinter vans, the Unimog, infact, Mercedes is also a truck company. Them making a one-tonner seems perfectly logical to me

I have owned mine for nearly 4 years now. Have around 80K kms on the odometer. I have used it as a trailer towing vehicle, loaded it with sand/dirt/bricks in the tray and also used it as a family lifestyle vehicle including thrashing it off-road. It is not a Nissan Navara at all given I tried both before settling for this vehicle. It was a unique offering and sad to see it a commercial hiccup for Mercedes Benz. The vehicle is 50mm wider and has 4 disc brakes and has all the tech you need for safe off road and towing. I do a lot of kms on highways too and the car is still a very competitive offering in the market in 2024 against Rangers and Hilux and what nots.

Cant wait to see a 4.0Tdi Amarok. Correction @Vicki. Lincoln and Cadillac have both built pickups. Very pleased to see Vicki smiling and laughing while off roading. I can remember when it made her cry.

Nearly $55K for what’s basically a midsize diesel Nissan truck? You can get a fully loaded, 5.7L V8 top tier Ram 1500 Longhorn here in the states for the same price.

This Merc is so rare now prices would shoot up

[mikeysx]

Sat in one of these the other day for the first time. Quality was nothing flash. Especially given the price. Went and checked out the Navara afterwards. Sure the navara isn’t really any better in terms of quality but you can forgive it seeming it’s much cheaper.

We need more fifth gear on tv! Or am I just missing it?

[theil]

That Bothers me ...! Hey Mercedes Build your own Dam Truck! You built the G wagon and the 6x6 so figure it out...!

[mmarocker]

Not exactly the first time a premium manufacturer has made a pickup, Lincoln had the Blackwood and the Mark LT (both just rebadged F-150s) and Cadillac had the Escalade EXT (which was really just a fancy Avalanche). But I don't think those were available in Europe.

[EinkOLED]

My south african boss gave me his credit card after winning a contract and told me to buy him a mercedes X class. When I delivered the car he said, 'what's this'!!!!??? I told you to buy me a S class!!!

[AndorRadnai]

I like it..! This is a rich horse owner’s or farmer’s car, I would say.
Not a Range Rover, but more of a workhorse.

[bebebiskuvi]

Actually Mercedes-Benz makes the largest pickups in the world called Unimog. So it's not that strange they have a lighter pickup.

[TheDonMagicWon]

I clicked on this video thinking I'll make a comment about a Ronnie O Sullivan lookalike but it's actually him lol

[aaronmitchell]

Its a nissan navara with a mercedes badge on it and mercedes grill

[ChrisH]

Why have this over an Amarok? The Amarok is cheaper, bigger and more powerful and in my opinion better looking, this is far too fancy and posh to be a true pick up and on the Grand Tour the load bay bent! No thanks Mercedes, you can keep your 40 thousand pound Navara, I’ll take an Amarok and a 2 week holiday to somewhere nice and warm 👍
