Mercedes-Maybach S-Class returns with a sweeping update that blends next-generation technology with Maybach’s signature opulence, redefining the flagship luxury sedan as a rolling sanctuary. Arriving in U.S. dealerships in the second half of 2026, the new model pushes deeper into personalized luxury, digital intelligence, and serene performance.
At the heart of the transformation is the debut of the Mercedes-Benz Operating System in a Maybach model. This AI-powered platform underpins the latest MBUX experience, introducing a more intuitive interface, generative AI-driven virtual assistant, and seamless over-the-air updates. The new MBUX Superscreen stretches across the dash, while rear passengers are treated to dual 13.1-inch displays and enhanced controls, turning the cabin into a mobile executive lounge.
Design refinements elevate presence without excess. A larger illuminated Maybach grille, rose gold headlamp accents, and signature lighting details create a more commanding yet elegant look. New 20- and 21-inch forged wheels feature a floating Mercedes star that remains upright while driving, underscoring the obsessive attention to detail.
Inside, the Maybach experience leans heavily into comfort and craftsmanship. The cabin is reimagined with premium materials like Natural Grain Brown Amber Wood, ambient lighting with 199 LEDs, and new curated color palettes. Rear-seat passengers benefit from executive seating, power comfort doors, a refrigerated compartment, and even optional silver-plated champagne flutes—hallmarks of Maybach’s indulgent philosophy.
Performance remains effortless and refined. An updated electrified V8 delivers 530 horsepower with mild-hybrid assistance, while the range-topping S 680 retains its handcrafted V12, producing 621 horsepower for unmatched smoothness. Enhancements to insulation and the AIRMATIC suspension system—now with predictive damping via cloud-based road data—further elevate ride quality to near-silent levels.
Personalization reaches new heights through the MANUFAKTUR program, offering over 150 exterior colors and more than 400 interior combinations. The “Made to Measure” initiative allows near-limitless customization, turning each vehicle into a bespoke creation tailored to its owner.
Advanced driver assistance is powered by a new computing architecture, supporting features like MB.DRIVE ASSIST PRO and future upgrades via over-the-air updates, including expanded urban driving capabilities.
Built at Mercedes-Benz’s state-of-the-art Factory 56 in Sindelfingen, the new Maybach S-Class represents the pinnacle of the brand’s 140-year legacy—merging cutting-edge innovation with timeless luxury.
With its blend of AI, craftsmanship, and serene performance, the 2027 Mercedes-Maybach S-Class doesn’t just move the benchmark—it quietly redefines it.
