Contemporary from our spy photographers within the north come pictures of not one, or two, however three Mercedes-Benz EQG check automobiles. One nonetheless wears the body-hugging, electric-themed wrap we have seen earlier than. The others, nonetheless, look extra like commonplace G-Class prototypes with swirl camouflage on every thing however the doorways. They’re of explicit curiosity right here, as a result of our photographer was capable of get a superb look beneath one at its all-electric powertrain.
It is unusual to not see an exhaust system on the again or engine parts on the entrance, however that is precisely what we’ve got right here. Huge shocks are inconceivable to overlook, however figuring out different objects is harder. On the entrance, we will spot management arms and what we expect is an digital energy steering rack. Skid plates are simple to see, however we additionally see what seems like a entrance differential within the center. We see one other differential on the again, together with an enormous sway bar. The ladder body can also be seen, making certain the EQG will keep it up the rugged methods of the G-Class.

The 2 differentials are fascinating, as a result of we all know the EQG will supply a quad-motor setup with one for every wheel. That’s confirmed, and these may very well be the housings for the motors. Nonetheless, the rear housing seems a bit small for 2. Might this be an as-yet unknown EQG trim degree with a tri-motor structure?
Along with its undercarriage, this prototype additionally seems to have a special grille. It is hidden by a mesh camouflage cowl, and we will additionally see slight variations within the entrance and rear bumpers. They seem a bit thicker general versus those on blue-wrapped prototypes. It is also price noting that the rear fenders with the mysterious vents in them are gone. Whether or not all of those modifications signify a special trim degree or are merely misleading types of disguise stays to be seen.
And it’ll possible keep that method for not less than the subsequent few months. We all know the EQG will not stray too removed from the idea model that debuted in 2021, however a manufacturing EQG is not prone to debut till the tip of this 12 months as a 2024 mannequin.
