The W460 is a member of the Merceded G-Class range of off-roaders which came out in 1979. It was popular with military forces due to the fact that it gave a useful combination of ruggedness, performance and reliability. It had a rather spartan interior, the designers apparently having concentrated more on the actual build of the car. It was available in three body styles.

The truck comes with ABS as optional on later models. Other safety features include child safety locks on the rear doors and the ability to have of three differential locks installed. The car also comes equipped with side-impact door beams.
