Historical background and application

The Mercedes Benz G4/W31 is a rare off-road vehicle produced between 1934 and 1939 by Daimler-Benz at the request of the authorities of the Third Reich. This six-wheeled vehicle was mainly intended for the military entourage, high-ranking Wehrmacht officers, and the German political elite. The G4/W31 was distinguished by its powerful engine and revolutionary rear four-wheel drive, which increased its off-road capabilities. Only about 57 units were produced, many of which participated in famous parades, military inspections, and propaganda activities on both the Western and Eastern fronts during World War II. This car has become an icon of German engineering from the interwar period and World War II.
