The Evergreen G class is a series of 11 container ships built for Evergreen Marine by Imabari Shipbuilding in Japan. The maximum theoretical capacity of these ships is in the range of 20,124 to 20,388 standard shipping containers (twenty-foot equivalent unit TEU).{{Cite web|title=ShipmentLink - Vessel Particulars|url=https://www.shipmentlink.com/tvi1/jsp/TVI1_VesselParticulars.jsp|access-date=4 August 2020|website=shipmentlink.com}}{{Failed verification|date=March 2021}}

History
The ships constitute 11 out of 13 container ships built to the Imabari 20000 TEU containership design developed by Imabari Shipbuilding. Evergreen time charters all 11 ships from their owner, Shoei Kisen Kaisha, which is a leasing subsidiary of Imabari Shipbuilding. On 30 March 2018, the first ship the Ever Golden was delivered with a capacity of 20,338 TEU.
In 2019, Evergreen announced it would be putting scrubbers on many of their ships in order to lower polluting emissions.{{Cite web|date=28 March 2019|title=Alphaliner: Scrubber Orders for Boxships Rise to over 540 Units|url=https://www.offshore-energy.biz/alphaliner-scrubber-orders-for-boxships-rise-to-over-540-units/|access-date=5 August 2020|website=Offshore Energy|language=en-US}} Ever Glory and all newer ships were built with scrubbers already installed. These scrubbers take up a considerable amount of space and the resulting capacity of these ships is slightly reduced to 20,160 TEU. The previous ships that did not have scrubbers when they were built had them retrofitted. This has reduced their capacity to 20,124 TEU.
Accidents and incidents
On 9 February 2019, the Ever Given collided with the ferry Finkenwerder, which was docked at a wharf in Hamburg on the river Elbe at the time. The Finkenwerder was heavily damaged.{{cite web|title=Blankenese: Frachter rammt Fähre auf der Elbe|periodical=|publisher=NDR|url=http://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/hamburg/Blankenese-Frachter-rammt-Faehre-auf-der-Elbe,schiffskollision212.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190209144219/www.ndr.de/nachrichten/hamburg/Blankenese-Frachter-rammt-Faehre-auf-der-Elbe,schiffskollision212.html |archive-date=9 February 2019 |date=9 February 2019|language=|pages=|quote=}}
