BMW's Rugged "G-Class" SUV to Enter Production in 2029, Targeting Mercedes-Benz G-Class

BMW's new rugged SUV, codenamed "G74," is slated for mass production in 2029, directly targeting the Mercedes-Benz G-Class. Featuring a boxy silhouette and BMW's latest design language, the vehicle boasts sharp lines and comes equipped with a full suite of off-road hardware. Powertrain options will include gasoline, mild-hybrid, and plug-in hybrid variants, balancing on-road handling with off-road capability. The starting price is reportedly expected to exceed $150,000 (approximately RMB 1.07 million). In the luxury off-road segment long dominated by the G-Class, it remains to be seen whether BMW's "Big G" can shake up the status quo.
