Question 1

How much does it cost to import a 2026 Mercedes-Benz G-Class through IPAS?

Accepted Answer

The G-Class range starts at $137,000 for the G 450 d and runs to $170,600 for the G 580 with EQ Technology AMG Line. In between sit the G 450 d Professional Line at $138,900, the G 450 d AMG Line at $154,500, the G 500 at $147,100, the G 500 Professional Line at $149,000, the G 500 AMG Line at $164,700 and the G 580 with EQ Technology at $154,200. Every figure is the IPAS price ex-works Germany and net of German VAT, so it covers the vehicle only — ocean freight, marine insurance, import duty and local taxes are additional and vary by destination. Use the Import Price Calculator on this page, or CarImport.AI, to get the full landed cost to your own country.

Question 2

Is the G-Class left-hand drive, and what happens if my country drives on the left?

Accepted Answer

Every G-Class sourced through this German programme is left-hand drive. If your destination is a right-hand-drive market such as Australia, New Zealand, Kenya, Sri Lanka or the UK, the vehicle will need a right-hand-drive conversion, which IPAS quotes at US$30,000 and arranges as part of the export. That amount sits on top of the vehicle price shown above, so include it when you compare against locally supplied stock. If your destination drives on the right, no conversion is involved and the car ships as built.

Question 3

What is the difference between the G 450 d, the G 500 and the G 580?

Accepted Answer

The G 450 d uses a 3.0-litre inline-six diesel with 48-volt mild-hybrid assistance, producing 270 kW (367 PS) and 750 Nm for 8.7 l/100 km combined. The G 500 uses a 3.0-litre inline-six biturbo petrol, also mild hybrid, with 330 kW (449 PS) and 560 Nm, reaching 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds. The G 580 with EQ Technology is fully electric, with a 117 kWh battery and four individually controlled motors delivering 432 kW (587 PS) and 1,164 Nm. All three keep the same ladder-frame chassis, low range and three differential locks.

Question 4

How is the G-Class shipped from Germany, and how long does it take?

Accepted Answer

Vehicles leave through AutoTerminal Bremerhaven, one of Europe's largest vehicle export terminals, by container or by roll-on roll-off depending on your destination and preference. Container shipping is the usual choice for a vehicle of this value because the car is sealed and protected for the whole voyage. Transit time depends entirely on the corridor, from roughly two to three weeks to nearby European and Mediterranean ports out to six to eight weeks or more for Asia-Pacific and East African destinations. IPAS Express gives you a live shipping quote and indicative timeline for your exact route.

Question 5

What do the Professional Line and AMG Line equipment lines actually change?

Accepted Answer

They are appearance and appointment packages, not mechanical changes — the engine, transmission, four-wheel-drive system and performance figures are identical within each powertrain. Professional Line is a modest step above the base specification and gives the car a more utilitarian, ruggedised look with black exterior detailing. AMG Line is the most expensive of the three and adds AMG exterior styling, larger AMG alloy wheels and AMG interior appointments; it is priced well above the base and Professional Line cars, not level with them.

Question 6

What range and charging performance does the electric G 580 offer?

Accepted Answer

The G 580 with EQ Technology carries a 117 kWh lithium-ion battery and is rated at 479 km combined on the WLTP cycle, or 670 km on the WLTP city cycle, at 27.9 kWh/100 km. It accepts up to 210 kW on DC, taking roughly 29 minutes from 10% to 80%, and comes with an 11 kW on-board AC charger with 22 kW available, which means about 12 hours for a full charge on an 11 kW wallbox. Confirm that public charging standards and connectors in your destination match the European specification before you order.

Question 7

What import duties and compliance requirements should I expect?

Accepted Answer

Duty, VAT or GST and any excise or luxury vehicle tax are set by your destination country and are calculated on the CIF value, so they are not included in the prices above. German-market cars are certified to Euro 6e-bis for the combustion variants, which satisfies most destinations that recognise European homologation, but some markets require their own type approval, emissions or lighting compliance work on arrival. The Import Price Calculator on this page returns the current duty and tax breakdown for your country, and IPAS supplies the export documentation and HS classification with the shipment.

Question 8

How do I order a G-Class, and what is the lead time?

Accepted Answer

Choose your variant, equipment line and paint, then request a quotation and IPAS confirms availability, the final landed cost and the delivery schedule for your destination before anything is committed. Stock cars in a common specification can be secured quickly, while a factory order to your own colour and options is subject to the current German production slot and typically takes several months. A deposit reserves the unit, with the balance due before the vehicle is loaded at Bremerhaven. If a right-hand-drive conversion is required, allow additional time for that stage.
