The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, colloquially known as the G-Wagon or G-Wagen (as an abbreviation of Geländewagen), is a four-wheel drive luxury SUV manufactured by Magna Steyr (formerly Steyr-Daimler-Puch) in Graz, Styria, Austria, and sold by Mercedes-Benz. Originally developed as a military off-roader, later more luxurious models were added to the line. In certain markets, it was sold under the Puch name as Puch G until 2000.

^ Might also be a standard Made in Austria G in a protective bag for overseas shipping?
It looks like it's about to board a ship............to Dubai or Qatar perhaps. It's wrapped too well to be a new model in disguise.

I feel so good and happy reading and understanding about the W464 G-class. How ever I strongly feel that Gordon Wagner has to direct his team to design a matching outside rear view mirrors, preferably a boxy one like the pic below. That would suite the car better and give a better view as its a taller car. No matter how many camera you have to give any 360 degree view, I personally feel rear view mirrors play a key role give a macho look. Since they were kind enough to retain the same classy design, let them also make a matching mirror.
Having said this, I also dis agree with Merc's design philosophy to follow same sedan mirror for large SUVs. They have to introduce a new one soon for the next gen SUVs.

I made a comment about this in a different thread. It seems the SUV's (GLC excepted) are retaining the current mirror while all sedans, coupes, and convertibles are switching to the S-class mirror.

The infotainment screen seems to have gotten wider with a minor facelift + UI updated closer to the S Class.
I'm not sure if it's just me, but I think the Rear View Camera now has a higher resolution compared to my 2016 G-Class.
Front parking sensor display has grown bigger too.
