FRANKFURT: Daimler said it plans to double sales of its Maybach-branded Mercedes-Benz vehicles, after selling 12,000 vehicles last year.

Daimler unveiled its new flagship vehicle, which is based on a Mercedes-Benz S-Class limousine, and which retails starting at US$173,000 but can quickly add up to more than US$250,000 once options like US$3,200 silver champagne flutes are added.

Daimler plans to make a range of Maybach models, including fully electric variants, chief executive Ola Kaellenius said during a virtual presentation of the car.
