10 highlights of the Mercedes\u2011Maybach S\u2011Class<\/p>\n
A more commanding expression of status: The new, more sculptural interpretation of the Maybach grille \u2013 now 20 percent larger and available with a luminous surround \u2013 sets the tone. In selected markets, the Maybach emblem on the C\u2011pillar and, optionally, even the upright Mercedes\u2011Benz star atop the bonnet, are gracefully illuminated.\u00a0Each element has been designed to project quiet authority, never ostentation.<\/p>\n
A new devotion to detail, visible at first glance: For the first time, the Maybach wordmark is subtly illuminated within the grille frame. The double\u2011star headlamps are accentuated by touches of rose gold. All forged wheels in silver finish now feature what feels like a small mechanical miracle: a perfectly aligned Mercedes\u2011Benz star. Mounted on a refined ball\u2011bearing mechanism, it remains upright \u2013 always \u2013 as if suspended in stillness even while the world moves around it.<\/p>\n
A cockpit that feels like entering an exquisite lounge: The redesigned interior blends high craftsmanship with the graceful modernity of the MBUX Superscreen, bathed in a Maybach specific ambient style. New open\u2011pore wood, including beautifully grained oak, is paired with soft light, deep materials and smooth digital surfaces. The result is an enveloping calm \u2013 the signature Maybach cocooning effect, reinterpreted.<\/p>\n
An expression of modern luxury philosophy: For the first time, a leather-free upholstery graces the interior including the new high\u2011grade \u201cMirville\u201d textile with its natural\u2011fibre look, complemented by deep white piping and an exclusive open-quilted diamond-stitched graphic.<\/p>\n
MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure \u2013 personalisation without boundaries: With virtually limitless combinations of leather, stitching, embroidery and bespoke finishes, MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure transforms the Mercedes-Maybach S\u2011Class into an individual creation.<\/p>\n
A sanctuary of calm: The new Mercedes\u2011Maybach S\u2011Class offers an even more refined driving experience, harmoniously combining serenity, efficiency and effortless power. Automatic comfort doors, Executive rear seats, a dedicated refrigerated compartment and silver\u2011plated Robbe & Berking champagne flutes reinforce the feeling of curated indulgence.<\/p>\n
A symphony of power and serenity: New electrified eight\u2011 and six\u2011cylinder engines offer commanding yet effortless performance, supported by mild\u2011hybrid technology for smooth response and energy recuperation. In selected markets, the celebrated V12 remains available \u2013 the embodiment of cultivated power.<\/p>\n
A new dimension of intelligence, centred around MB.OS: The latest MBUX generation makes its Maybach debut with the warmth of Maybach specific graphics, an enhanced Zero Layer and the MBUX Virtual Assistant powered by generative AI. Regular over\u2011the\u2011air updates\u00a0ensure the driving experience evolves with time.<\/p>\n
Predictive protection, intuitive support: A sophisticated sensor suite combined with a powerful new computing architecture enables advanced driving and parking assistance. MB.DRIVE ASSIST PRO\u00a0supports smooth point\u2011to\u2011point journeys, even through dense urban environments.<\/p>\n
Even more expressive design options: Nautic blue metallic joins the Night Series exterior palette for an elegant, contemporary statement. New wheel designs offer additional ways to express individual taste.<\/p>\n
