If you want a real off-roader, the tuned Mercedes G500 4×4² is exactly what you're looking for

One of the most powerful and attractive commercial off-roaders on the market is undoubtedly the Mercedes G500 4×4². It is a robust, powerful vehicle, easy to drive and capable of reaching virtually anywhere. But some people are not content with all this and want their off-roader to be even more interesting and to offer more excitement behind the wheel. Forgiato has taken advantage of this to create an even more impressive version of the model.

One of the main changes made focuses on the Forgiato wheels. These are a Fratello-T model from the Terra Series, measuring 24 inches, although other sizes are also available for the car, of 22 and 26 inches, in a good variety of colours that will give it a very striking look.

But the wheels are clearly not the only change we will see on the car. Various elements made from carbon fibre feature on the bodywork. There are also redesigned rear lights and tinted windows to preserve the privacy of the rear occupants.

On the outside, greater ground clearance can be noticed, which means that where it could once tackle very difficult terrain, it can now face even more demanding conditions. That said, these changes appear to have cost it some of its cornering ability, as its configuration may hamper its manoeuvrability in that respect.

Inside, a more powerful sound system has been fitted, and we know this car has been tuned by Creative Design, a tuning company based in Los Angeles. It is a one-off model commissioned by Donald Penn, a player for the Oakland Riders and a collector of exclusive cars, who will add this off-road marvel to the rest of his collection. The price of the transformation has not been disclosed, but I think we can get a fairly good idea, don’t you?
