Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury Sets High Bar for SUV Crossovers

Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury

Many automakers are moving to merge SUVs and sedans, combining the best aspects of both. In a sense, this idea crossover has emerged as the holy grail of cars. We don’t know if the Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury is that holy grail, but it is most definitely a treasure of its own sort. This luxurious SUV finally got to see the light in Beijing.

First, the Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury is an electric car. Just five minutes of charging will yield a 60 mile range. Acceleration times haven’t been released but with each wheel being powered by its own separate motor, expected the Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury to get up and go.

Akin to an SUV, the Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury offers elevated seating, allowing for better vision. The interior, meanwhile, borrows heavily from the lauded Mercedes S-Class sedan. The luxurious seats even feature calf support. In China, Mercedes is going with a traditional “Magic Wood” trim, giving the SUV a distinctive and classic Chinese flair. In the west, expect to see Cullinan trim. There’s no word if this styling will make it to other markets.

The Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury features a unique “pinstripe” grill. This particular grill offers a pretty big break from Mercedes traditional styling, but looks quite sharp and fresh. There’s no word yet if the grill is going to be exclusive to Asian markets or if it’ll make its way elsewhere. This crossover also features a notchback rear end, which are becoming quite popular in China.
