Throughout the 2000s, Maybach represented a level of luxurious opulence in the automotive industry that was previously unprecedented, quickly becoming a staple among luxury collectors and a pop culture icon. However, the brand was transformed in the 2010s when it fell under the Mercedes-Benz umbrella as Mercedes-Maybach, pivoting to transforming models within the Mercedes-Benz lineup with Maybach levels of luxury. At the top of the lineup is the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, an ultra-luxurious sedan that offers a V12 under the hood, along with a suite of incredibly luxurious design touches and features.
That flagship model has now undergone its most extensive update yet, as Mercedes-Benz has given the S-Class a thorough update for the 2027 model year. While new technology makes the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class the most advanced it’s been in the model’s history, some important features remain like the inclusion of a V12 engine, and its graceful, elegant design.
Celebrating 140 years since the invention of the automobile, Mercedes-Benz is updating its Maybach S-Class at a historic milestone, revising the design of its ultimate luxury flagship with touches like a larger grille with an illuminated surround, new wheel designs with a floating Mercedes-Benz star, an illuminated Mercedes-Benz star on the hood, and Maybach emblem on the C-pillar, and rose gold accents throughout.

Under the hood, the new Mercedes-Maybach S-Class features a mild-hybrid 8-cylinder engine in the S 580 with 530 horsepower and 553 lb/ft of torque, and the flagship S 680 retains a 621-horsepower V12. Meanwhile, the integration of the new MB.OS system makes it the most technologically advanced Mercedes-Maybach S-Class yet, and a newly designed suspension evolves the car’s comfort to new heights.
Inside, the new Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is pushing the limits of Maybach luxury, with available power rear doors, silver-plated champagne flutes, new wood finishes, a new MBUX High-End rear seat entertainment system, and the MANUFAKTUR Made To Measure program that offers the option to make each car truly bespoke. A total of over 150 exterior paints and over 400 interior colors are available through the program, with new colors joining both palettes as part of the update. With new technology, traditional opulence, revised design, and more customization options than ever, the new Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is lifting ultimate luxury to new heights.
