Recent Changes
- At the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, Maybach unveiled a pair of 100 unit special edition models of both the 57 and 62 called the Zeppelin. In the late 20's and early 30's, the Zeppelin nameplate denoted the cream of the crop of Maybach's lineup, in homage to Wilhelm Maybach's work developing the V12 engines that powered the eponymous airships. 81 years later, the Zeppelin name means access to a 6.0L twin turbo V12 producing 640hp (471kW) and 738lb-ft (1,000Nm) of torque and luxury never before experienced in a land-based vehicle save for, perhaps, the Blue Train. The entire interior is decadently attired in 'California beige' leather with 'Stromboli black' contrast stitching and piano black highlights. Special accessories include silver champagne glasses engraved with the Zeppelin logo and an acrylic ball that dispenses a bespoke fragrance through the cabin at the push of a button. A choice of two fragrances are available from the factory, one described as 'light and refreshing', another as 'woody'. Custom scents can also be had, at a cost of €3,950 ($5,100) plus taxes. Outside, the Zeppelins will be distinguishable by a unique two-tone livery composed of ‘Rocky Mountains’ light brown and ‘Taiga black’, restlyed side mirrors and 20in wheels in a dark chrome finish. As you might imagine, luxury like this doesn't come cheap and evidence for this can be found on the bill: €406,000 ($524,000) for the 57 and €473,200 ($610,000) for the 62. [1]
