2018 Mercedes-Benz S-Class

DescriptionFew automobiles combine imposing road presence, advanced technology, serious performance and rear-seat luxury quite like the 2018 Mercedes-Maybach S 560 4MATIC. Sitting at the pinnacle of the S-Class family, the Maybach was engineered around an extended-wheelbase platform with an extraordinary emphasis on passenger comfort. This particular example has traveled just 36,197 miles since new and is finished in a timeless black exterior over a black leather interior with elegant wood-grain accents. Adding further appeal, it is reported as a one-owner vehicle with a clean CARFAX. The 2018 model year was an important evolution for the Maybach. The previous S550 designation gave way to the S560, bringing with it a new 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 producing 463 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. That engine is paired with Mercedes-Benz's 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission and 4MATIC all-wheel drive. The combination gives this extended-wheelbase flagship the substantial power and effortless acceleration expected from a Maybach while retaining the added capability of an all-wheel-drive platform. Mercedes-Benz also extensively refreshed the Maybach for 2018 with revised exterior styling, new lighting technology, updated infotainment and the introduction of Energizing Comfort Control, which coordinates functions such as climate control, ambient lighting, massage and audio. The Maybach's substantial 132.5-inch wheelbase provides the foundation for its extraordinary rear-passenger accommodations and imposing proportions. This particular S560 becomes even more special in the rear cabin thanks to its $1,950 Executive Rear Seat Package PLUS. Rather than treating the second row as an afterthought, this package creates an executive-class environment with four-passenger seating, dual power rear seats, a full-length center console, heated and cooled rear cupholders and two folding rear picnic tables. The rear seats power recline, allowing passengers to tailor their seating position, while dual rear entertainment screens provide dedicated entertainment for the rear cabin. This example also includes the accompanying headphones and remote controls, completing an exceptionally well-equipped passenger environment. Overhead is another particularly desirable option: $4,950 MAGIC SKY CONTROL. This sophisticated panoramic-roof technology allows the glass panel to electronically change its transparency, giving occupants greater control over the amount of light entering the cabin without relying solely on a conventional shade. It is an extraordinary piece of technology that feels entirely appropriate in a Maybach. The front cabin is equally impressive. Power-adjustable front seats feature heating, ventilation and massage functionality, while extensive ambient lighting creates a dramatic nighttime environment. The dual-screen dashboard architecture includes a 12.3-inch central infotainment display with AM/FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity and factory navigation, surrounded by the rich materials expected of Mercedes-Maybach. Audio is delivered through the Burmester sound system, further elevating the cabin's entertainment experience. Combine that with the panoramic roof, beautifully executed wood-grain trim, extensive power seating and sophisticated climate and comfort systems, and the S560 demonstrates why Maybach represents considerably more than an ordinary S-Class trim level. With only 36,197 miles, a one-owner, clean-CARFAX history, the formidable 463-horsepower twin-turbocharged V8, 4MATIC all-wheel drive, $4,950 MAGIC SKY CONTROL, $1,950 Executive Rear Seat Package PLUS with folding picnic tables, reclining rear seating, dual rear entertainment screens, Burmester audio and unmistakable Maybach presence, this 2018 Mercedes-Maybach S560 delivers a remarkable combination of performance, technology and executive-class luxury.
