Photos & Price-The All New 2015 Mercedes-Maybach S600

The new super-luxury Mercedes Maybach S600 is on sale now with price starting at £165,700 ($251,419).

The Mercedes-Maybach S600 has gone on sale with price starting at £165,700. First UK deliveries of the super-luxury model are planned for June.

The S600 marks the return of the Maybach name two years after its was pulled by Mercedes-Benz because of faltering sales. Now the nameplate has returned for this V12-powered, extra-long-wheelbase S-class model.

The swish ‘upper luxury-class’ saloon received its public debut at the LA motor show last November. The car is planned to compete in a segment of the market occupied by the Bentley Flying Spur and Rolls-Royce Ghost.

For the £165,700 asking price, customers get a choice of leather, wood and stitching options. Other than more opulent paint colours, the only other option available is First Class Cabin, which swaps the three seat bench for two individual seats, which can recline to 43.5 degrees.
