A Blend of Luxury and Adventure

The Project Maybach is unlike anything you’ve seen before. It’s a two-seater, battery-powered off-road coupe that marries the elegance of a Gran Turismo with the ruggedness of an off-road vehicle. It’s a car that whispers luxury while shouting adventure. You can catch a glimpse of this futuristic beauty at the NMACC until October 2024.

Exterior: Where Style Meets Substance

The exterior of the Project Maybach is a masterclass in design. Imagine a sleek, sandy-colored body enveloped in a sturdy roll bar. It’s a look that’s both utilitarian and luxurious. The roof rack is a standout feature, not just for its protective qualities, but also for its ability to transform into a base for a roof tent. Talk about glamping in style!

The front of the car is a futuristic spectacle. A large glass panel houses the car’s nose, where a reimagined Mercedes-Maybach grille proudly sits. The chrome finish of the grille is a nod to sci-fi aesthetics, while the headlights and taillights add a modern touch.

Interior: A Mobile Oasis

Step inside, and you’ll find yourself in a high-tech oasis. The seats aren’t just seats; they transform into a luxurious flatbed. The interior is a blend of polished aluminum and buttery-soft leather tanned using coffee shells for minimal environmental impact.

The attention to detail is exquisite. The headrests have a stylish houndstooth finish and can be used as blankets, and there are even cleverly hidden reading lights. If you want to take the luxury outside, the seats can be packed up like suitcases and used in a high-end tent. The dashboard is a seamless fusion of digital and analog elements, reinforcing the car’s futuristic appeal.
