AI Generated Custom Forged Wheels Design for New Electric G-class EQG 2024 by Bête Noire Ver1.6

Custom Forged Wheels for Mercedes EQG -- B-te Noire Ver 1.6

The EQG is the heaviest G-Class ever produced. Its quad-motor drivetrain and battery pack push kerb weight past 3,000 kg, making wheel weight a genuine engineering concern rather than a cosmetic preference.

The EQG carries a battery pack that pushes its kerb weight beyond 3,000 kg. Every kilogram of unsprung mass you remove from each corner helps the adaptive dampers do their job, improves regenerative braking response, and reduces energy wasted on accelerating heavy wheel assemblies. With quad-motor electric drivetrain producing approximately 587 hp, the Mercedes EQG already has more than enough power. What it needs is efficiency at the corners -- lighter wheels mean less energy wasted accelerating rotating mass, better regenerative braking response, and a noticeable improvement in how the car rides over broken surfaces.

The B-te Noire Ver 1.6 for the EQG pushes the angular G-Class theme further than the Ver 1.3. The spokes are wider and flatter, with a more pronounced step between the machined face and the matte-finished sides. It is a more aggressive interpretation -- the kind of wheel that suits a blacked-out EQG build. The open spoke channels also improve airflow to the brakes, which matters on a 3,000 kg vehicle.

Fitment Specifications

The weight saving from forged aluminium is not just a number on a spec sheet. Reducing unsprung mass by 16-18 to ~12 kg per wheel means the motors, suspension, and regenerative braking work more efficiently at every speed. If you are considering maximising range and handling precision, this is where to start. More on the differences in our Forged Vs Flow Formed Vs Cast Wheels Guide.

How AI Wheel Design Works

The B-te Noire Ver 1.6 is part of Hodoor's AI wheel design programme. The system generates thousands of unique wheel concepts, each one engineered to be manufacturable as a forged monoblock. You are not choosing from a static catalogue -- the AI produces designs tuned to the Mercedes EQG's specific dimensions, brake clearances, and visual proportions.

If none of the AI-generated options are quite right, our in-house designer works from hand sketches. Either route leads to the same CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet, the same balancing and inspection process, and the same four-to-eight-week production timeline.

Available Finishes

• Gloss black
• Satin black
• Brushed titanium
• Polished aluminium
• Custom RAL colour matching (any colour, applied with ceramic clear coat)

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these wheels fit the ICE-powered G63 AMG as well?
Yes. The EQG and G63 AMG share the same bolt pattern (5x130) and centre bore (84.1 mm). Offset and width are compatible across both platforms. The same wheel design works on both vehicles.

How does wheel weight affect the EQG's range?
Reducing unsprung mass by 16-24 kg total (across four wheels) typically yields a 2-5% range improvement on heavy EVs. For the EQG's estimated 450 km range, that could mean 10-20 km of additional range per charge, plus noticeably sharper handling.

Can I run 24-inch wheels on the EQG?
The EQG supports up to 22" wheels without modification. Going to 24" requires careful offset calculation and may need minor fender adjustments. Contact us with your specific requirements and we will confirm feasibility.
