Overall Rating
The 2016 Maybach S-Class Sedan is the benchmark of ultra-luxury sedans. Everything about this car feels magnificent and opulent.
The 2016 Maybach S-Class Sedan is the benchmark of ultra-luxury sedans. Everything about this car feels magnificent and opulent. This car has always been revered by a lot of people, and it makes you awestruck with the extravagance of things inside the cabin. Nothing else apart from the brilliantly designed cabin matters to you. In a car like this, it is all about the passenger’s comfort. Everything inside the car is powered by a motor. The rear seat is similar to the one you find in the first class of an expensive airline.
Since there is only one variant, we recommend you to buy the S 600 trim for its plethora of hi-tech features and powerful V12 engine. Some of the stand-alone features you get along with this luxury icon are a hands-free auto-opening trunk/liftgate, power glass sunroof, door mirror memory, a Navigation system with voice activation, and a garage door transmitter for an exceptional driving experience.

In comparison, the Mercedes-Benz Maybach Sedan is the heaviest car in the segment with a curb weight of massive 5,308 lb lbs. It is also the longest and the widest car in the segment, while the Porsche Panamera Turbo S happens to be the smallest car in the segment with a length of 197.4 inches and a height of 55.8 inches.

Some stand out features of the Maybach includes:
The Maybach S-Class Sedan hasn’t been subjected to the crash tests conducted by the NHTSA or IIHS, yet we all know it is one of the safest cars in the world. It makes use of 4-wheel disc brakes which bestows upon the luxury sedan a decent halting distance in the 60 MPH deceleration test. As standard, it comes heavily equipped with features like electronic brake distribution, traction control, and electronic stability control, and a rear side-impact-impact airbag. Some standout safety specifications include:
The Bentley Flying Spur is a car that is capable of giving Maybach a hard time. But it is also a fact that the S600 is brought into the market by the Mercedes to specifically target a couple of cars including the Flying Spur. On the basis of price, the 2016 Maybach is cheaper as compared to the $201,000 price tag of Bentley's Flying Spur. Additionally, the German sedan boasts a higher capacity engine with better power figures. However, the more aggressive acceleration of the Flying Spur makes it a better choice over its counterpart.
The Rolls Royce Ghost Series II is yet another major rival of the 2016 Mercedes Benz Maybach S600. However, affordability of the Ghost is an issue as it costs a staggering price of $295,850 making it almost $100K more costly than the Maybach. Moreover, the engine specs, fuel efficiency, cabin space of the Ghost Series II is almost equivalent to that of the S600 sedan. All in all, the Maybach seems to be a preferable option over the Ghost Series considering it can offer almost similar stuff at a much lower cost.
With its latest generation of the Maybach S-Class sedan, the Maybach is looking to regain its mojo, and it’s immediately clear that this generation marks a massive improvement in every aspect over the last car. Everything about this car is at its finest, and there’s a great sense of sophistication in everything that the Maybach does. On the other hand, it has better performance and is fast enough to get rid of the taxman or the underworld chasing you. This car is definitely a game-changer in the ultra-luxury sedan market, and we definitely recommend it.
