MERCEDES-BENZ MAYBACH S-CLASS

2027 Mercedes-Maybach S-Class

The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is an ultra-luxury long-wheelbase saloon built at Factory 56 in Sindelfingen, Germany, on the Mercedes-Maybach production line. IPAS sources it new in Germany in left-hand drive as a three-variant range — the S 580 4MATIC mild hybrid, the S 580 e 4MATIC plug-in hybrid and the S 680 4MATIC mild hybrid. Prices shown are the IPAS price in US dollars, ex-works Germany, net of German VAT (which falls away on permanent export) and before shipping, duty and taxes in your destination. Compared with the standard S-Class, Maybach models add an exclusive exterior design, signature two-tone paint finishes, an executive rear cabin, additional acoustic insulation and finely appointed Maybach upholstery and trim.

Variants

The European S 680 is a V8, not a V12. In Germany the S 680 4MATIC runs the same 4.0-litre M177 Evo V8 biturbo as the S 580, in a higher state of tune — 450 kW (612 PS) and 850 Nm from the combustion engine — after Mercedes-Benz withdrew the 6.0-litre V12 from the European line-up on emissions grounds. The 6.0 V12 continues only in the North American market, so specification sheets written for the United States or Canada do not describe this car. The S 580 and S 680 therefore share one V8 architecture with 48V EQ Boost assistance, while the S 580 e uses a separate 3.0-litre inline-six turbo petrol plug-in hybrid powertrain.

Specifications

Dimensions and Weights

The three variants share one body, so shipping dimensions are identical across the range. The plug-in hybrid carries its high-voltage battery under the boot floor, which is why its luggage volume and kerb weight differ from the two V8 cars.

Export, Steering and Compliance

The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is built left-hand drive for the German market, and every unit IPAS sources from Germany is left-hand drive.

• Left-hand-drive destinations — the car ships as built, with no steering conversion and no conversion cost.
• Right-hand-drive destinations — a right-hand-drive conversion is required, quoted at US$30,000 and arranged by IPAS before the vehicle is shipped. Add it to your landed cost when you compare markets.
• Emissions — all three variants are homologated to Euro 6e-bis (WLTP). Destination markets set their own emissions and homologation requirements; IPAS confirms these for your country before an order is placed.
• Export port — vehicles are loaded at AutoTerminal Bremerhaven, Germany's principal vehicle export terminal, with sea freight and Ro-Ro options to most destinations.
• Pricing basis — prices are ex-works Germany in US dollars, net of German VAT, which is not charged on a permanent export. Shipping, insurance, customs duty and destination taxes are additional.
