View Details
The Mercedes‑Benz Maybach GLS 600 is the ultimate ultra‑luxury SUV, aimed squarely at buyers who want a full‑size, four‑seat “chauffeur‑driven lounge” with supercar‑like acceleration. It sits at the very top of the Mercedes SUV range, blending the GLS’s space and capability with Maybach’s signature opulence.
Ultra‑luxury, four‑seat SUV
The Maybach GLS 600 is a five‑seat SUV officially rated for five passengers, but in practice it is usually configured as a four‑seat VIP cabin with huge rear‑seat space, reclining captain’s chairs, and a center console or footrest. It is about 5.2 metres long, with a very long wheelbase, giving exceptional rear‑legroom and a towering, imposing presence on the road. The chrome‑laden Maybach front grille, vertical lamps, and extra brightwork make it instantly distinguishable from a regular GLS.
4.0‑litre twin‑turbo V‑8 with mild‑hybrid boost
The GLS 600 uses a 4.0‑litre twin‑turbo V‑8 petrol engine assisted by a 48‑volt mild‑hybrid system, producing about 550 hp (equivalent to 557–563 metric horsepower) and 700–770 Nm of torque. Power is sent through a 9‑speed 9G‑TRONIC automatic and 4MATIC all‑wheel drive, enabling 0–100 km/h in around 4.9 seconds and a top speed limited to 250 km/h. The engine is very smooth and unstressed at normal cruising speeds, with strong, effortless overtaking performance.
Magic‑carpet ride with Maybach mode
The GLS 600 runs on standard air suspension allround, tuned for the softest possible ride. It features a Maybach mode that softens throttle response, damping, and steering, effectively “floating” the car over bumps and road imperfections. Despite its size, the SUV feels stable and composed, thanks to double‑wishbone front and multi‑link rear suspension with air springs, plus advanced damping and AWD control. Off‑road ability is limited by the luxury setup, but it can handle light trails and rough tarmac without issue.
First‑class interior with every possible comfort
Inside, the Maybach GLS 600 is one of the most opulent SUV cabins available, with full‑leather or semi‑aniline upholstery, quilted headliners, real‑wood or open‑pore trim, and massive rear seats that recline significantly. The dashboard uses dual high‑resolution screens, ambient lighting in multiple gradients, and soft‑touch materials throughout. Many markets add rear‑seat screens, massaging functions, heated and ventilated rear seats, and advanced climate control for each passenger. The boot is around 520 litres, which is large but not class‑leading for such a big SUV.
Flagship status for elite buyers
The Mercedes‑Benz Maybach GLS 600 suits ultra‑high‑net‑worth individuals, senior executives, royals, and top‑level business owners who want the ultimate status SUV. It works as a VIP people‑mover, airport‑transfer machine, and long‑range luxury cruiser, giving you a near‑silent, supremely comfortable, and extremely powerful vehicle that feels more like a private lounge than a regular car.
