Although the Mercedes-Benz G-Class off-road vehicle just broke its own sales record in 2021, the number of new vehicles delivered worldwide was as high as 41,000. However, foreign media recently revealed that Mercedes-Benz officials have notified dealers to stop taking orders after January 17 this year. Not only that, but the delivery time of existing orders has also been delayed until the third quarter of 2024. However, as of this writing, Mercedes-Benz has not received any official response to the matter.

According to reports, the reason for the G-class suspension of orders is still the shortage of chips plaguing global automakers and the suspension of production and supply of factories and related suppliers under the influence of the epidemic. The current Mercedes-Benz G-Class was launched in 2019, and according to the product plan, the model is about to be a regular mid-term modification. Among them, the latest version of the MBUX car machine and the larger size of the central control screen are the focus of this redesign, and the suspension of new orders this time is bound to affect the launch and delivery of new cars.
