What is the wading depth of the G-Class?

[OThomas]

The wading depth of the G-Class is 500mm. Air intake height is the maximum wading depth: The height of the air intake is the most critical indicator of a vehicle's wading capability, because once water enters the air intake, it can cause the engine to stall. In severe cases, water can be sucked into the engine, leading to permanent damage. Therefore, driving should not continue if the water reaches this level. Safe wading depth: The height of the air intake varies depending on the model, typically located between the upper edge of the bumper and the upper edge of the fender. For most vehicles, the safe wading depth is limited to not exceeding the center of the wheel hub, which is approximately 25-30 centimeters. Minimum ground clearance: The design of the minimum ground clearance must consider the vehicle's ability to pass over loading platforms during transportation and the likelihood of avoiding scraping when the car is close to the edge of a standard sidewalk.
