A G-Wagon's price in Kenya depends on two things above all: the year and the engine. A G-Wagon 2018 price in Kenya is very different from a 2019 G-Wagon, because 2018 is when the new shape arrived. Moreover, the year decides whether you can import the car or must buy locally.
In 2026, the KEBS 8-year rule admits cars first registered in 2019 or later. Therefore, this guide gives landed prices for importable years and buying advice for older ones. All figures come from the Elisa Motors catalogue and include shipping, KRA duty, clearing and registration.

Old shape vs new shape G-Wagon
The old shape G-Wagon (W463) ran until 2018. It has the classic narrow body, older electronics and a harsher ride. In contrast, the new W463A arrived in 2018 for the 2019 model year. It looks similar but is wider, safer, quieter and much more modern inside.
The new shape differences include independent front suspension, a larger cabin, digital dashboards and far better safety systems. As a result, new-shape cars cost much more. In 2026, every importable G-Wagon is a new shape. Read our G-Wagon price guide for full details.
G-Wagon price in Kenya by year
G-Wagon 2013 price in Kenya
A 2013 G-Wagon is the old-shape W463. It cannot be imported in 2026, because the 8-year rule starts at 2019. Therefore, every 2013 G-Class in Kenya is locally used. Its value depends on mileage, service history and whether it is a genuine AMG or a converted G350/G500.
G-Wagon 2014 price in Kenya
The 2014 G-Class is a local-market car only. It is 12 years old, so it fails the import age limit. Many 2014 cars wear G63 body kits, so check the chassis and engine codes to confirm what you are buying.
G-Wagon 2015 price in Kenya
You will only find a 2015 G-Wagon (old-shape W463) on the Kenyan used market. Old-shape G-Wagons have a loyal following. However, parts, rust checks and electrical faults make an inspection essential.
G-Wagon 2016 price in Kenya
A 2016 G-Wagon is the old-shape W463. It cannot be imported in 2026, because the 8-year rule starts at 2019. Therefore, every 2016 G-Class in Kenya is locally used. Its value depends on mileage, service history and whether it is a genuine AMG or a converted G350/G500.
G-Wagon 2017 price in Kenya
The 2017 G-Class is a local-market car only. It is 9 years old, so it fails the import age limit. Many 2017 cars wear G63 body kits, so check the chassis and engine codes to confirm what you are buying.
G-Wagon 2018 price in Kenya
You will only find a 2018 G-Wagon (W463) on the Kenyan used market. Old-shape G-Wagons have a loyal following. However, parts, rust checks and electrical faults make an inspection essential.
G-Wagon 2019 price in Kenya
A 2019 G-Wagon is the new-shape W463A. It lands at the lower end of each band: about KES 20M – 24M for the G400d diesel, KES 22M – 26M for the G550 V8 and KES 28M – 36M for the G63 AMG. It is the oldest G-Wagon you can import in 2026, so it is the cheapest route to a fresh-import new shape.

G-Wagon 2018 vs 2019 price in Kenya
This is the most important comparison. A 2018 car may be the last old shape or the first new shape, depending on its build date. Meanwhile, almost every 2019 car is a new shape. The 2019 car is also importable in 2026, while the 2018 car is not.
Therefore, a 2019 car costs noticeably more, but it is a far better car. If budget allows, choose the 2019. If not, buy a 2018 only after confirming its chassis code and history.
Best year to import a G-Wagon to Kenya
For value, the best year is 2019 or 2020. These are the cheapest new-shape cars you can import, and they still have years of resale life. For longevity, choose 2021–2023. These cars stay importable and easy to sell for longer.
Finally, choose 2024 or newer if you want the facelift with the latest screens and mild-hybrid engines. These cost the most, but they are the closest to a new car.
G-Wagon price trend in Kenya: will prices drop?
G-Wagon prices in Kenya rarely fall far. Demand is strong, supply is limited and the car holds its value well worldwide. However, three things can move prices. First, the shilling's exchange rate against the pound, yen and dollar. Second, changes to KRA's CRSP values. Third, the yearly shift of the 8-year window.
Each January, the oldest importable year drops out. Consequently, the cheapest importable G-Wagon becomes one year newer, and the entry price rises. If you want the cheapest new shape, buy before the window moves. Read our G-Wagon duty and CRSP guide to see how tax affects price.
