LOS ANGELES: The first cabriolet from the Mercedes-Maybach brand is making its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show – limited to 300 units and with a net price tag of 300,000 euros.

Unique features of the Mercedes-Maybach S 650 Cabriolet include nine additional colour concepts for the interior, the trim - optionally with “flowing lines” - plus the hand-finished craftsmanship of the leather seats with perforations in a waterfall-style look.

The drive system is a 6.0-litre V12 engine with an output of 630hp.

Power transmission to the rear axle comes via 7G-TRONIC, and there is also AIRMATIC suspension with steplessly variable damping control.

Worldwide, just 300 examples of this open-top four-seater model will be produced.

The Mercedes-Maybach S 650 is based on the open-top S-Class and has adopted the latter’s classic proportions, among other features, with highlights which include the dynamic silhouette with coupé-like soft top and the dropping line along the side which slopes down towards the rear.

Exclusive Mercedes-Maybach features include a new front bumper with upgraded lower section and also numerous chrome highlights.

The Maybach emblem is discreetly but elegantly featured on the vehicle’s wing. Other special elements on the exterior include the high-quality 20-inch Maybach forged wheels in a powerful design with a bichromatic finish.

On opening the doors, the Maybach logo is projected onto the floor by means of entrance lighting.

In the interior, the fully leather-trimmed Mercedes-Maybach S 650 Cabriolet has dynamic “flowing lines” in the seats.

This waterfall-like seat upholstery look is achieved with the aid of progressive perforations.

An eye for detail is also demonstrated in the outer diamond quilting on the seat side bolsters and the Budapest piping.

Also, the Mercedes-Maybach S 650 Cabriolet exclusively boasts a trim element on top of the soft top compartment with inlaid Maybach logo.

The Mercedes-Maybach S 650 Cabriolet is equipped as standard with an exclusive travel luggage set from MAYBACH - ICONS OF LUXURY.

“THE AFFINITY” set comprises two large travel bags as well as two lifestyle bags made of original vehicle leather.

In terms of form and colour – which are coordinated with the interior variant selected by the customer – the bag set is tailored to match the Cabriolet.

The bags can be securely attached to each other with straps to enable optimum use of the space in the boot.

In addition, each Mercedes-Maybach Cabriolet is delivered with a special welcome pack.

This comprises a key ring made of the nappa leather used in the vehicle and in the interior colour, with Maybach emblem and “1 of 300” lettering.
