Mercedes benz Maybach S Class Price in India 2026

The Maybach S-Class offers two monumental powerplants. The S 580 features a 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine with 48V mild-hybrid assistance, producing 496 bhp and 700 Nm. The flagship S 680 houses a handcrafted 6.0-litre V12 biturbo engine—the last of its kind—delivering a staggering 603 bhp / 612 PS and 900 Nm of torque. Both units are engineered for "effortless" power delivery, prioritized over raw aggression.

The S 580 utilizes an 8-cylinder V-shape configuration, while the S 680 utilizes a 12-cylinder V-shape. Both engines feature a Double Overhead Camshaft (DOHC) design with 4 valves per cylinder. They employ twin-turbochargers and high-precision direct injection to ensure maximum torque is available from as low as 2,000 rpm, allowing the heavy limousine to glide with minimal engine noise.

Despite weighing over 2.3 tons, the Maybach S-Class exhibits sports-car-level acceleration. The V12 S 680 hits 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds, while the V8 S 580 follows closely at 4.8 seconds. The top speed for both variants is electronically limited to 250 km/h to maintain tire integrity and passenger comfort.

Both models utilize the 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission, specifically tuned for the Maybach "Chauffeur" mode, which starts the car in second gear to prevent any jerkiness. Power is managed by the 4MATIC permanent all-wheel-drive system, providing unshakable stability and grip regardless of weather conditions.

The Maybach is significantly longer than the standard S-Class, measuring 5,469 mm in length with a massive wheelbase of 3,396 mm—all of which goes to rear-seat legroom. It is 1,921 mm wide and 1,510 mm tall. The unladen ground clearance is 146 mm, which can be raised via the air suspension. Its kerb weight is a substantial 2,275 kg to 2,350 kg.

The boot offers 495 to 500 litres of space, though this can be reduced if the optional refrigerator box is installed between the rear seats. The fuel tank capacity is 76 to 80 litres. In India, the Maybach S-Class is typically configured as a 4-seater with the "First-Class Rear" console, though a 5-seater option exists.

The Maybach features a world-leading 13 airbags, including unique frontal airbags for the rear passengers integrated into the back of the front seats. It also includes "Beltbags" (inflatable seatbelts). It comes with the full "Driving Assistance Package," including evasive steering assist and PRE-SAFE Impulse Side, which raises the car body if a side collision is imminent.

The Maybach rides on AIRMATIC air suspension with E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL (48V), which scans the road ahead and pre-adjusts the damping for every single bump. It also features Rear-Axle Steering (up to 10 degrees), which significantly reduces the turning circle of this 5.4-meter limousine. It typically wears 19 to 21-inch Maybach-exclusive forged wheels.

The cabin features up to 5 screens: a 12.8-inch OLED central display, a 12.3-inch 3D driver display, two 11.6-inch rear entertainment screens, and a 7-inch rear tablet. It includes a Burmester 4D Surround Sound system with 30 speakers and exciters in the seats. Other tech includes "Electric Comfort Doors" that open and close via hand gestures or the MBUX screen.

The car features Active Road Noise Compensation, which uses the Burmester speakers to generate anti-noise waves, making it one of the quietest cabins in the world. Maintenance follows the 15,000 km / 1-year cycle. Through the MANUFAKTUR program, owners can choose two-tone paint finishes that take up to a week to apply by hand.
