For those who courageously fight at the resorts of the Côte d’Azur, Mansory has prepared a new “front-line” vehicle — the Mercedes G-Class Speranza Cabrio. Yes, yes, this is exactly the “G-Wagen” that had its roof mercilessly chopped off so that sunburned shoulders would have more room to tan.

And what else does a true warrior of the “Monaco” battalion need, who daily fights for a spot at the casino? 820 horsepower, 1150 N∙m of torque — to quickly escape from journalists who unexpectedly catch them shopping. Acceleration to 100 km/h in 4 seconds? Perfect for making it to the sales at local boutiques.

The interior? White and red leather, carbon fiber, individual rear seats — because who wants to sit in a tight space when transporting… well, let’s say, bags from Hermes. And rear-hinged doors that open opposite the direction of travel, like a Rolls-Royce? That’s for special charm, so everyone can see who’s in charge here.


The presentation, of course, is nowhere else but at the Top Marques exhibition in Monaco. Because where else should one show off toys for those who believe patriotism is a photo with a flag in their stories, and the main front is parties at yacht clubs.

P.S. Just in case: Mansory Speranza translates as “Hope”. One wants to believe that real hope is actually being born not among oligarchic convertibles, but among those in armor, not in convertibles.
