The Maybach defines the standards at the very peak of the passenger car market, at the same time continuing the tradition of the legendary Maybach automobiles which were among the elite in German and international automotive engineering together with Mercedes-Benz during the 1920s and 1930s.
The model designations denote the respective lengths of these unique, super-luxury vehicles: 6.17 metres in the case of the Maybach 62. Trailblazing innovations so far uniquely available in Mercedes-Benz vehicles have undergone further development for the Maybach and are included in the standard equipment: the electrohydraulic braking system Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC), the electronically controlled air suspension system AIRMATIC DC (Dual Control), LINGUATRONIC voice control, the operating and display system COMAND APS and the automatic emergency call system TELEAID. These are complemented by further masterpieces of automotive engineering which were specifically developed for the Maybach and substantiate its claim to the high-end position in the luxury car segment: the "Type 12" engine (405 kW/550 hp), which delivers more power and torque than any other standard-production saloon car engine in the world, a 600 Watt sound system with Dolby surround sound at every seat, a highly efficient four-zone climate control system with two separate air conditioners and - exclusive to the Maybach 62 - innovative and comfortable fully-reclining seats in the rear. Design: a perfect balance of classic and avant-garde featuresIn the new Maybach technological excellence is combined with equally unique elegance, aesthetics and design perfection. The harmonious interplay of form, colour and materials lends these high-end saloons a design quality which accentuates their serene character and gives them an unmistakable identity. The Maybach is a highly elegant embodiment of greatness; its special stylistic appeal derives from a perfect balance of classic and avantgarde features. The lines of the Maybach hold a timeless appeal – an ideal which applies to both the exterior and interior design. In every sense of the word this makes the new Maybach an automobile for life. The highest quality materials – among them more than 100 exquisitely crafted and hand-fitted items of fine wood trim – embellish the interior, whose design was guided by one overriding objective: the greatest possible comfort and wellbeing for all the passengers. This is achieved not just by the capacious size of the interior, which has an overall length of 2.25/2.68 metres, but also by the sumptuous comfort of the seating and climate and by the virtual absence of noise, all of which adds up to a truly exceptional motoring experience.

And it seems that their tons of high technology features offered on this car. BTW, its a good thing that they have worked on the safety of the passengers.
 BenBoston (542) Posted on 03.11.2011 Daimler has spoiled the name of S class and steroids. Maybach is such a failure even from the start because of the uniqueness on the design.
 jay_walker (537) Posted on 02.7.2011 Does it mean that this is the contrary of the 62S? Since it doesn’t have the S?hehe. Maybe not so special!No wonder!

 Euginewoods (556) Posted on 12.13.2010 Once again Daimler’s over-the-top full-boat luxury ride is available in this relatively short-wheelbase version for owners who might want to do the driving themselves.
 dan_denisson (160) Posted on 07.28.2010 With this, No doubt that Maybach could be line up with Bentley, Aston-Martin and Rolls-Royce.
 uberblast PXR5 (6686) - Posted on 05.24.2006 I am a professional driver / chauffeur. I have had the unique opportunity to test drive for a " hi end cilent " the Maybach " 57 " . Around the same time I also drove the " New " Rolls Royce " Phantom " and the ’ New " Bentley, " Flying Spur ".
I was very impressed with the Maybach, it is a sheer pleasure to drive or be driven in. What I was very pleased with, and my cilent was that the vehicle is a " sleeper ", meaning that unless you know the car and or you got a close look at it, you wouldn’t know the car, unlike the Phantom. When I drove the Phantom, I felt like a " movie star " almost everone who saw the car coming down the street, either yelled, screamed, pointed or looked, my cilent was not impressed with the publicity, at all. The only challenge the faced my cilent was that he couldn’t get his head around the 12 cylinder engine. The Bentley " Flying Spur " was also quite " spectacular " but once again I was faced with the 12 cylinder. At this time my cilent has settled for a 2007 LWD Jaguar, a far cry from the cars stated above, but he is pleased. We are currently looking at and test driving a couple of Bentley Arnages, years 2001 to 2004. This weekend I will be driving a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud 111, which is always a great treat. www.rgcollection.ca
