Mercedes G Class

The G-Class, often called the G‑Wagen, is a blocky icon that blends unapologetic off-road prowess with a plush, modern cabin, announcing your arrival before you even step out. It’s equally at home crawling over rocks or cruising city streets, and owning one feels like adopting a very expensive, very capable personality.

Suzuki Jimny

Brimming with raucous charm and unabashed off-road spirit, the Suzuki Jimny makes light work of rough tracks while remaining surprisingly at home in city streets. It's a cheeky, no-nonsense companion for buyers who prefer character over conformity — think go-anywhere attitude in a pocket-sized package.
