The Mercedes-Maybach’s first cabriolet is all set to hit markets in the spring of 2017.
Limited to just 300 units — and only 75 in the US — the Mercedes-Maybach S 650 priced at $320,000 and is equipped with a 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 that puts out 621 horsepower (463 kW/ 630 hp) and an astonishing 738 pound-feet of torque.
The design philosophy behind the car is “Sensual Purity” — “both hot and cool at the same time.” The interior is said to be inspired by the Mercedes-Benz Style “Arrow 460 Granturismo” yacht – with a “waterfall-like” leather trim and diamond quilting on the seat bolsters and the Budapest piping.
Unique trim elements can be individually commissioned by each owner, including a variety of options for the doors, instrument panel and dashboard. There are nine new colour combinations for the interior — from pastel yellow/black to porcelain/saddle brown – with extra scope for personalisation available.
The exterior proportions are the same as the S-Class drop-top but there are a number of exclusive Maybach changes, including a new front bumper with upgraded lower section. On opening the doors, the Maybach logo is projected onto the floor by means of entrance lighting; while new 20-inch forged chrome wheels dominate the look.
All of the optional extras with the S-Class Cabriolet come as standard on the Mercedes-Maybach, including the AIRSCARF neck-heating system, AIRCAP and the Swarovski crystal headlamps.
