New Maybach S-Class Unveiled – Key Details

Mercedes-Benz has unveiled the updated Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, bringing a fresh set of design changes, more luxury features, and updated engine options. The new model builds on the recently updated Mercedes-Benz S-Class but adds extra exclusivity and comfort expected from the Maybach badge.

Exterior Gets Signature Luxury Updates

The new Maybach S-Class gets subtle yet premium design changes. The front grille is now 20 percent larger and comes with LED illumination. It also features Maybach’s signature vertical slats and a glowing Maybach wordmark.

The iconic Mercedes star on the bonnet is now illuminated, adding to the car’s road presence. The headlamps get a new design with three-pointed star LED signatures and rose gold accents, while the tail lamps follow a similar theme.

The sedan also gets new 20-inch and 21-inch alloy wheels, along with an illuminated Maybach logo on the pillar. It continues to be longer than the standard S-Class, offering more space for rear passengers.
