Maybach: Maybach 62
built 792 days ago
Rear seats in the Maybach 57 include power adjustments for seatback and cushion angle, plus head restraint height and angle. The Maybach 62 applies its extra length to what is undeniably the most luxurious automobile seating in the world today. Individual rear seat recliners provide full body support even for a tall passenger. Pressing the Pulse button provides an air-driven gentle back massage. Folding tables, standard on the Maybach 62 and optionally available for the Maybach 57, are made from machined aluminum with a two-part surface veneered in fine wood and with undersides covered in Nappa leather.

In 2007 Maybach introduces the 57S. Its 6.0-liter, twin-turbo V-12 makes 603 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque versus 543 hp and 664 lb-ft for the stock 57. It can go from 0 to 62 mph in 5.0 seconds and on to a top speed of 171 mph. Maybach ... retuned the air suspension, lowered the ride height by 0.6 inch, and fitted thicker anti-roll bars and twenty-inch wheels. Cosmetic changes include a revised grille and rear bumper plus unique monotone black or silver paint schemes. The cabin gets made over, too, with available piano black trim and even more gorgeous leather.

The Maybach was designed to drive like a private luxury jet for the road. Both models are powered by a 543-horsepower, twin-turbocharged V12 engine that produces 664 lb.-ft. of peak torque at only 2,300 rpm. Teamed to a five-speed electronic automatic transmission specially developed to handle this level of torque, the engine can rocket the Maybach 57 from zero-to-60 mph in just 5.2 seconds (5.4 seconds for the Maybach 62) in near-silence. Just as impressive, the Maybach will leap from 35 mph to 75 mph in only 6.5 seconds.

The Maybach – regardless of whether in version 57 or 62 – represents the pinnacle of modern automotive engineering. Refining such a luxury sedan is very special and therefore Brabus uses only its very best engineers, technicians, designers and upholsterers to work on this project.

Two newly developed, individual seats lend the finishing touch to the wellbeing of passengers in the rear of the Maybach 62. Their special feature is the unique reclining position, which travellers have previously only encountered with the First Class compartments of modern passenger jets. If the rear passenger selects the pre-programmed reclining position by pushing a button, the seat backrest slowly reclines to the rear by up to 47 degrees, and at the same time a thigh support and footrest are pivoted forward from the lower seat section. In this way the passenger is able to enjoy the journey in a very relaxed resting position and adjust the seat to his personal comfort requirements with just a few operating commands.

The Maybach 62 ... offers several options unavailable in the 57. For example, the 62 has fully reclining rear seats because it has extra leg room available in the rear to accommodate them.
