Mercedes MaybachIt was inevitable and Mercedes Maybach have approved the Maybach Landaulet for production. The 62S based Landaulet design study was first shown in November last year. The car gets its name from classic luxury era of open passenger cabin coupled to a closed chauffeur’s area. The car has received favorable response at Auto shows which has led to to it being put into production. Two exteriors colors are on offer named Baltic Black or the Nevada Silver with 20 inch wheels that can be polished or matched to the body color.
The Landaulet front seats are fully enclosed and seperated from the rear passenger compartment by a removable divider. The Barcalounger which pass of as back seats in the Maybach, let the passengers enjoy the open-air via a retractable roof that electro-hydraulically disappears into the rear parcel shelf in 16 second. The chauffeur’s area is swathed in black leather while the rear is done in all white with piano black and gold flecked black granite inserts. The opacity of the glass that seperates the driver from the passengers can also be controlled electronically.
The car is powered by the uprated, twin-turbocharged V12 engine that develops 612bhp with an impressive 1000 nm of torque between 2000 - 4000 rpm. The car also features electronically controlled AIRMATIC DC (Dual Control) and the Adaptive Damping System, internally ventilated brake discs with twin callipers at front controlled viz two electro-hydraulis Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) braking systems that work in tandem.
