Hot! Mercedes-Benz, What's Next?

[Design FIRST]

Chassis engineering and suspension fine-tuning is where the German manufacturers hold the advantage over others.

This car is insane actually. Funny how Chinese are making much better vehicles than Germans. Wild.

These are just imitations. They're nothing new.

Chassis engineering and suspension fine-tuning is where the German manufacturers hold the advantage over others.

This is exactly the point.

They’re already developing V8 Bi-Turbo engines, because their customers prefer it to 1.5L REX or BEV.

GWM Shocks the World: New 4.0L V8!

GWM just revealed a 4.0L twin-turbo hybrid V8 engine—yes, a V8! Set to power future Tank models and possibly a full-size pickup, this powerhouse could deliver over 600kW and 1200Nm. Here's what it means for Australia.

Well those imitations are now offering everything Germans do, and sometimes even better, at a much lower price. It’s a win-win for everyone.

There seems to be a fundamental misunderstanding here as to what a Maybach is today. It’s a trim grade not a bespoke car and Mercedes isn’t marketing it as a bespoke car. There is nothing fake about them.

it's wild that you even think this comes close to a German luxury car. It doesn't, it's pure superficial lipstick. And even that is cheaply copied.

Let’s be honest, the interior is spectacular, be we don’t know what happens after a couple of years.

The engine is the choice between the devil ( BEV) and the deep blue sea (1.5L REX), none of it is adequate in this class.

I don’t think it’s wild. They’re much more technologically advanced, and build quality is pretty dang good too. Sure, their designs are like a mix of everything, but still. Though I’m just talking about the high-end luxurious Chinese models, not the regular ones. They’re definitely catching up.

We recently looked at BYD to get an affordable second car and I was so surprised at how good the interior designs and qualities were on certain models. There’s this model called Han, which is a 5er and E-Class “competitor” I guess, and it was just amazing. Everything felt extremely solid, and it was covered in leather pretty much everywhere. No hard plastic at all. It also had amazing tech. All of that for half the price is a really good deal imo. They’re no means “enthusiasts” cars, but still. Such a great package for the regular folks.

Agreed. At least in the back, the interior looks cozier, more comfortable, and more spacious than in the so-called Maybach. This photo actually gives me claustrophobia.

I agree.

People buy RR and Bentley mostly because of the image, but If your priority is maximum comfort the Maybach is one step ahead.

That’s where the E-ABC shines compared to the other cars with simple air suspension.

The mostly underestimated thing is the curve function, you’re driving through curves but you don’t feel it at all.

Key to a successful Maybach is the V12 engine, and maximum technology regarding comfort.

I personally would position the car not as sporty as a Bentley but sportier than RR.

Lol no car is better than RR at comfort refinement ,theyre THE BEST at that what they offer for road insulation and having a splendid comfy ride

They arent.

Chinese cars and design are still junk.

Its like how a chinese native said, its not that the chinese cars are better and the locals prefer them, its just they cannot afford the german competition, but they still aspire to own them.

Those 1.5 liter REX motors are absolutely wonderful

Yeah, you can’t stretch you legs behind the driver If you’re 7ft tall, but that’s why you can pust the front passenger seat 8 inch’s forward and stretch your legs there.
