An offroad icon turned racecar.
A 1-of-1 G-Wagon with a motorsport inspired bodykit, lowered with competition suspension, and fitted with racing slick tires on AMG’s signature monoblock wheels. This unique design was created by the late artist Virgil Abloh in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz to offer us a fresh perspective into automotive design, one that drives luxury away from a polished and flawless aesthetic, to something raw, natural, and altogether more honest.
