The Mercedes-Benz G 5 (W 152 series, 1937 to 1941) was the successor to the 170 VL, being equipped with all-wheel drive and selectable all-wheel steering. Three body versions were available ex factory: a military Kubelwagen body, a touring car with side windows and a folding tropical roof, and an all-purpose crew vehicle. Several of these vehicles saw use with the German mountain rescue services, some of them well after the end of the Second World War. 378 units were built in total. Nonetheless this model may be seen as the forerunner of the privately-owned off-road vehicle, so popular nowadays.
