Gateway Classic Cars of Charlotte is proud to digitally present this 1995 Mercedes/Puch G 230GE combines authentic military character with a professionally restored presentation and thoughtfully upgraded details.
Powered by a 2.3-liter gasoline engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, this G 230GE is built for versatility. On normal roads, it operates in rear-wheel drive, while its 4WD system and differential locks provide maximum traction when the terrain gets challenging.
The Puch G 230GE was an Austrian-built military troop transporter, originally developed through the joint venture between Steyr-Daimler-Puch and Mercedes-Benz and manufactured in Graz, Austria. These vehicles were used by the Austrian and Swiss Armed Forces and earned a reputation for ruggedness, simplicity, and exceptional off-road capability.
This example retains the practical military troop-transport configuration, seating two up front and six comfortably on inward-facing rear benches.
Exterior & Interior
Finished in military green, the exterior has been professionally restored inside and out by Race City Paint & Body in Mooresville, North Carolina. The truck rides on 18-inch rims wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires, while the original 14-inch wheels are included with the vehicle.
Inside, the military utility has been elevated with a custom brown diamond-stitched leather interior accented by dark green trim. Removable diamond-stitched floor mats complement the upholstery, and the versatile two-piece soft top allows the vehicle to be enjoyed open-air or enclosed depending on the conditions.

History & Restoration
Imported into the United States in 2023, the G 230GE received a complete service by the Military Maintenance Facility prior to its arrival. Following its import, it underwent a professional restoration inside and out by Race City Paint & Body in Mooresville, NC.
The result is a distinctive G-Class that preserves the character and configuration of its military origins while offering a highly finished presentation for road use, off-road adventures, or collection.
An uncommon opportunity to own an authentic Austrian-built Puch G 230GE with military provenance, restored cosmetics, upgraded interior appointments, and the rugged 4WD hardware that made the G-Class legendary.
