Yeah, yeah, I know it's not a Jeep but, it's new, is a four wheel drive and thought it was still worth talking about. So, what say you - Yea or Nay?

MERCEDES-BENZ ENER-G-FORCE

Stuttgart – Is it possible that the Mercedes-Benz G-Class will still be around in 2025? A cool design study from Mercedes-Benz demonstrates how the genes of the classic off-roader from 1979 may still assert themselves in the far future. It is based on the concept of a future police car developed for the Los Angeles Design Challenge.

The Los Angeles Design Challenge 2012 looks far ahead with a quest for the “Highway Patrol Vehicle 2025”. Law enforcement will have to prepare for even more crowded roads with electronically monitored and guided traffic, a much larger population and changes in human behaviour. People will feel young and active until even later in life. Outdoor activities will dominate leisure, the desire for freedom and adventure. The new times will also call for new police vehicles. They must be able to reach any place conceivable quickly and reliably – even far away from any pavement. And they must do so in an exceptionally environmentally friendly way using alternative energy sources. Enhanced green-car characteristics and off-road capabilities will be among the fundamental virtues of a police car in 2025.

As a one off experimental designs goes, its definitely checking the "different" block. Underneath all that extra stuff it kinda looks like that big Nissan or Toyota SUV. I bet the final/goes to market design cut will look pretty good, Mercedes usually has a fairly palatable design ethos for their vehicles
 
Can't quite get my arms around it at this point. It's kinda like sushi, it'll takes a while to get used to. BTW, uni is my favorite.:)
 
It's cool looking for sure! It does remind me of a Toyota though.

Too ritzy for my blood! I love my Jeep the best! :cool:

What I want to know is when are female cops going to look like this? :crazyeyes:
