Maybach Zeppelin: More Powerful, More Exclusive and More Expensive


What Maybach's parent company, Daimler -slash- Mercedes calls a new model that revives the spirit of the 1930's Maybach Zeppelin, is in fact a special edition version of the Maybach 57 S and the long-wheelbase version, the 62 S. To be officially revealed in Geneva, the Maybach Zeppelin will be produced in a limited run of just 100 units with prices (excluding tax) set at €406,000 ($526,500 US) for the Zepelin 57 and at €473,200 ($613,600 US) for the Zeppelin 62. In both cases, power is provided by a tweaked version of the firm's twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 which now delivers 640HP (+28 hp) and a peak torque of 1000 Nm or 737.6 lbs-ft.

Hallmark features of the Zepelin include a two-tone special paint finish, newly designed 20-inch wheels in a Chrome Shadow finish and streamlined exterior mirrors.

Inside, the range-topping Zepelin gets leather appointments in California beige leather and trim elements in piano lacquer finish. Also, the centre console in the front, the partition screen that is available as an option for the Maybach Zeppelin 62, plus the silver champagne flutes included as standard are all marked with the lettering "MAYBACH ZEPPELIN", while the door sill panels as well as the key ring are engraved with the word "ZEPPELIN".

For those that like to pay attention to details, of the most prominent interior features of Maybach's 'uber' luxurious sedan is a perfume distributor. The system's core component is an internally illuminated Plexiglass sphere on the rear center console, into which owners can insert a vial of their preferred fragrance. A regulator pump then directs a flow of air into the Plexiglass sphere, fanning the vial's perfume molecules into the vehicle interior. The perfume atomizer that is exclusive to the Zeppelin can be ordered for an extra €3,950 or around $5,100.
