A mini Mercedes G Class SUV with an electric motor and luxury trimmings has gone viral in Russia for costing 11 million rubles ($110,000) despite being somewhat of a children’s toy.
It’s no secret that the Mercedes G-Wagon is a lot of young people’s dream car, but would you pay over $100,000 to buy a miniature version for your teenage kid? A dealership in Moscow, Russia, is selling an electric Mercedes G-Class aimed at young people below the legal driving age for a whopping 11 million rubles ($110,000). At only 800 kg, it’s considerably smaller than the regular G-Wagon, and comes with a parental control function that allows you to limit the vehicle’s speed from 60km/h to 40km/h or 20km/h. But other than that, it comes with all the bells and whistles of a normal G Class, including leather seats, a digital display, parking sensors, soundproofing, steering wheel controls, and a rearview camera for parking.
Don’t think a glorified children’s car with barely enough space to fit people over 180 cm tall is worth six figures? Did we mention that the mini G Class features a carbon fiber hood, carbon spoiler and even carbon door handles? How about sports seats with Sparco seat belts? Maybe the air suspension can make you open your wallet?
$110,000 for a beginner car is a lot of money, but maybe we can interest you in a $35,000 Bugatti children’s car?
