GLS [Official] Mercedes-Maybach GLS (X167)


The Mercedes-Benz GLS, formerly Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, is a full-size luxury crossover SUV produced by Mercedes-Benz since 2006. The GLS is considered the flagship of the marque's SUV lineup, although the body-on-frame G-Class (originally intended for military off-roading but also offered in luxurious trims) is more expensive and has been in production longer.

Flashback to the crazy (and frankly stupid) post-Covid lockdown time. Nowadays you won’t have too much trouble negotiating a deal, though they are surprisingly popular.

I’m no longer as apathetic as I used to be against it, but I still rather have a Range Rover Autobiography (though they are selling way over stick for the moment).

Wow that is a crazy price for a GLS with some glitter.
 
I was driving behind a W222 S65 AMG a few days ago and that V12 truly sounded wonderful and had a huge burst of speed overtaking many cars.

Mercedes should bring back that engine (with Pagani specs) in the W223, would be a fantastic car to drive.
 
How long will they hav the V12 in production cars?? I mean in S-class
Only car they still offer it is the S Maybach 680.. the take rate for the Maybachs are very low compared to the S in the US since most people drive themselves. I think I have seen more Flying Spurs and Ghosts than Maybach S classes where I live. I will be surprised if it survives the Z223 face lift
 
Of course it will survive the facelift. They sell plenty of them in China alone to justify the S680.

The 680? I doubt it. They have a lesser engined Maybach slotted below the S580 if memory serves right just to save from emissions/ engine size related taxes
 
I don’t see it being dropped. They put a lot of effort into mating the V12, 4Matic, and the 9 speed. There are no such taxes here in the USA.

You are all over the place. First you bring up china and then the US.. show me the breakup by the numbers

I said it sells in China. I said taxes aren’t an issue here. Point is China alone will ensure the car stays in production. If you’re buying this kind of car taxes aren’t an issue. I don’t see them dropping the car after the effort they put in it.

Reviewed this Emerald green GLS 600 facelift for my channel, no major changes to experience. It’s as good as it was earlier especially on luxury & comfort. Suspension remains as the best, even better than much more expensive Cullinan & Bentayga, and almost similarly priced Range Rovers. The subtle changes on exterior is good improvement, especially in the front.

Im not posting my video here as its in my local language.

Mercedes-Maybach

In November 2014, Daimler announced the revival of the Maybach name as a sub-brand of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W222), positioned as an upscale version akin to the more sporty Mercedes-AMG sub-brand.
