The German giant Mercedes-Benz has turned the purchase of the new Mercedes-Maybach V12 Edition into a real gambling game, after announcing that the right to purchase will be played in a lottery. The reason? Those wishing to own this jewel of technology are many times more than the modest circulation planned for the market.
This exclusive series is limited to just 50 copies worldwide, with five of them destined for the Land of the Rising Sun. And here's where it gets interesting - Japanese millionaires will have to rely on the favor of fate to get their hands on the car, which pays homage to the legendary Maybach Zeppelin. The design is a true visual symphony: the body is finished in a two-tone combination of mystical olive green (Manufaktur Olive) and deep black (Obsidian Black), separated by fine silver lines. The painting process of this car takes a full ten days - twice as long as a standard Maybach.
The interior of the coupe is a real temple of luxury. The interior is decorated with gold elements, including emblems with 24-carat gold plating, and a special V-shaped motif on the seats recalls the noble origin of the engine. But do not be fooled by the fine materials - under this aristocratic shell lies real power.
The technical heart is the mighty 6.0-liter V12 engine with twin turbochargers. With its 612 horsepower and a monstrous 900 Nm of torque, this “fortress on wheels“ accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds. These are figures typical of a supercar, but achieved in the silence and comfort that only Maybach can offer.
Oh, how ironic! Even if you have a spare nearly 350,000 euros (the price for the Japanese market), this is no guarantee that you will park this masterpiece in your garage. In a world where everything is bought, Mercedes-Maybach decided to remind you that the most valuable things sometimes depend on a spin of the wheel of fortune.
