Based on a great number of reactions to
Mercedes-Maybach’s recently unveiled Ultimate Luxury Concept, the automaker
didn’t quite nail it with regards to exterior design.
Instead of a GLS-like SUV, which is what we were
expecting, we got something that looks more like a high-riding saloon, as if
somebody had already taken the vehicle to a tuner, modded the ride height and
gave it ultra large fenders and wheels.
If you happen to like that sort of thing,
then we totally understand. But if you generally prefer more conventional
designs, then you might be interested in checking out this render by Aksyonov
Nikita, who took the concept car and performed some segment altering digital
surgery on it. As you can see, it now has a different shoulder line, different
windows and a tailgate, although we’re still not blown away by the rear end
design.
From a front 3/4 angle though, it’s definitely not
bad. In fact, we’re willing to go as far as to say that if this had been the
real concept, it may very well have previewed something that could have taken
on the Rolls-Royce Cullinan in the future.
