GLS (X167) [Official] Mercedes-Maybach GLS (X167)

[Sunny]

Looks like an old Buick or a Lincoln.

 

[Merc1]

It's ok, but without the V12 some of plot is lost. Tell me there will be a GLS 650 also please. Maybachs are V12s.

Believe this one is in two tone iridium silver/designo diamond white bright?

The headlamps with MULTIBEAM LED technology as standard present the entire front lighting as if in jewellery showcases. Below the radiator grille, the front apron has a wide air inlet that discreetly suggests the power of the V8 engine with a finely woven grille in high-grade chrome. On the left and right of the radiator grille, this grille has finely curved trim strips for additional embellishment, and it tapers to form an elegant, slim cross-piece emphasising the horizontal line between the radiator grille and the registration plate bracket. Below the chrome grille the bumper has a high-gloss black paint finish and a robust, high-gloss chrome underguard indicating the vehicle's considerably refined SUV character.

Two-tone paint finishes are optionally available, and these underline the balanced proportions of the body. A total of eight combinations are planned, the colour named first being that of the lower section: cavansite blue/iridium silver; designo diamond white bright/obsidian black; iridium silver/designo diamond white bright; iridium silver/selenite grey; obsidian black/kalahari gold; obsidian black/patagonia red; obsidian black/rubellite red; emerald green/mojave silver. These paint finishes are rendered particularly elegant by the fluid course of the separating lines, where a fine pinstripe in the one colour merges into the body of the other colour along the vehicle's beltline. This fine line once again echoes the pinstripe motif.

Looks better and better. China will buy every single one of them and it will likely do better than the sedan version here in the U.S. That said I hope they're going to add a S650 with the V12 soon. It just doesn't seem right without the V12.

In a short while you’ll say “Maybachs are hybrids.”

 

[Merc1]

And then electric.

Rick Ross and DJ Khaled disagree. They have probably reserved two each.

"But I don't see the ending through these millionaire lenses
Just the Two M's on the emblem
The partition roof, translucent and Humador
Where refrigerators, where Ace of Spades - two I store!
True story, my closet is like two stories
Cut to the happy ending, 'cause I don't do stories"

Meh

I have a feeling this GLS 600 V8 will be the top of the line, then probably they will introduce GLS 500 with I6. It's a pitty 600 designation is used for V8s.

 

[Merc1]

I hope that isn't the case. This truck needed the V12, at about 625hp.

I don’t think we’ve hit the top yet personally. I wouldn’t use the current Maybach S-class as a template.

Such poor attention to detail. They should have changed the 'Hey Mercedes' command prompt to 'Hey Maybach'.

Believe this is designo cardinal red metallic? Also called hyacinth in Europe.

Is there any image or details of boot & boot space???

There's probably a better chance of it getting a 4 cylinder hybrid powertrain than a socially unacceptable V12.

You would think that the E-ABC would be standard in this car.

Haha i'm probably closer to the truth than you want to believe. I could be wrong about the hybrid I4, maybe it will be a hybrid I6 from the GLS, because I'm pretty sure a hybrid engine will end up in this at some point, most likely for the Chinese market, like the S400 Maybach sold in China.
