Mercedes-Maybach S-Class — The Essence of Modern Luxury

The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class embodies sublime beauty, ultimate luxury and forward-looking refinement. Sensuous, clean surfaces and striking chrome elements shape the exterior of this prestigious chauffeur-driven limousine. A longitudinal chrome trim strip on the bonnet and optional two-tone paintwork with an exquisitely applied pinstripe recall historical Maybach models—creating a captivating contrast with cutting-edge features such as flush-fitting door handles and the optional DIGITAL LIGHT headlamps, which can project information onto the road depending on local regulations.

Exterior Design — Elegance, Presence and Prestige

• Impressive proportions: a short front overhang, extended wheelbase and elongated rear end create the ideal classic 3-box silhouette.
• Prestigious presence: the exclusive radiator grille with 27 vertical high-gloss chrome bars and centrally placed “Maybach” lettering asserts unmistakable status.
• Iconic Maybach profile: signature chrome trim on the B-pillar, a fixed triangular rear window, and distinctive 19- to 21-inch wheels define the side view. Flush-fitting, illuminated KEYLESS-GO door handles (889) blend seamlessly into the body for a refined, modern appearance.
• A regal finale: chrome-plated, Maybach-specific exhaust trim elements and two-section tail lamps with finely detailed internal structures create an unmistakable night signature—some functions even feature animation.
• Sensual purity: reduced feature lines, generous surfaces and selectively placed chrome highlights, including the Maybach logo on the C-pillar, elevate the S-Class to flagship level.
• Model differentiation: the S 580 features black high-gloss air inlet grilles, while the V12 S 680 is distinguished by high-gloss chrome grilles and a “V12” badge on the front wings (availability depends on market).

Lighting Technology — Beauty Meets Intelligence

Even as standard, MULTIBEAM LED headlamps with 84 LEDs offer a striking three-row daytime and night-time signature. The optional DIGITAL LIGHT (318) takes illumination into a new era: with over 1 million pixels per headlamp, it continuously adapts to traffic, road conditions and weather. Subject to local approval, it can also project symbols or warnings—such as lane guides in roadwork zones—directly onto the road surface.

A New Level of Exterior Individualisation

A wide palette of premium paint finishes allows extensive personalisation, from classic metallic colours such as velvet brown (771U) or emerald green (989U) to exclusive MANUFAKTUR finishes. Highlights include the spectacular three-layer MANUFAKTUR Patagonia red bright (993U) with a pearlescent effect. For the ultimate in exclusivity, more than 50 MANUFAKTUR Exclusive finishes are available.

Interior — A Sanctuary of Modern Luxury

Inside, the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class expresses future-oriented luxury in every fibre—from Maybach nappa leather upholstery to the exclusive Maybach fragrance. Innovative design blends with handcrafted perfection to create an emotionally compelling, ultra-premium environment.

The cutting-edge digital interface, centred around the large OLED media display, introduces the next generation of user experience. Optional electrically opening and closing rear comfort doors (68B) underline the vehicle’s status as a true luxury limousine.
