Mercedes-Maybach
S600 Pullman
In
terms of luxury and exclusivity, there will be nothing above the
Mercedes-Maybach S600 Pullman in the German automaker’s lineup.
The
6.5 meter long limousine had its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show as the second
model from newly-established Mercedes-Maybach sub-brand. Described by
Mercedes-Benz as a state limousine with a classic face-to-face seat
configuration in the rear, the S 600 Pullman is the brand’s superlative in
terms of luxury.
In
the words of Ola Källenius, Member of the Board of Management of Daimler AG,
Mercedes-Benz Cars Marketing & Sales, “the length of 6.50 meters and the
wheelbase of 4.42 meters deliver an incredibly spacious interior and
first-class comfort. It goes without saying that the new Mercedes-Maybach
Pullman also embodies the very best in exclusivity.”
The
limousine’s rear compartment can accommodate four passengers who can sit facing
each other. The compartment is separated by the driver’s cabin by an
electrically-operated partition window featuring an 18.5-inch monitor located
in front that can also be extended electrically.
Features
an interior completely lined with leather and an exclusive Burmester High-End
3D Surround-Sound system, which is the most expensive surround-sound system
found in an automobile.
Power
for the Pullman is provided by the 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 with 530 PS (523 hp)
and 830 Nm (612 lb-ft) of peak torque available at 1,900 rpm. The new
Mercedes-Maybach Pullman goes on sale at the beginning of 2016 with prices for
un-armored models starting from around € 500,000 or about US$ 570,000.
