Scheduled to debut on May 22, these vehicles promise to set new standards in opulence and power, elevating the driving experience for luxury enthusiasts across the country.

The Mercedes-Benz Maybach GLS 600, introduced around four to five years ago, captured hearts worldwide with its opulent design and unmatched comfort. Now, as it prepares for a facelift, anticipation is building among Indian consumers eager to experience its lavish enhancements. Priced at Rs 2.96 crore initially, the updated version is expected to surpass the Rs 3 crore mark, aligning it with the extravagant new AMG S 63 E Performance.

What can luxury aficionados expect from the revamped Maybach GLS 600? While retaining its iconic grille, the facelifted model will boast larger vertical chrome pinstripes, redesigned bumpers, and refreshed headlamps and tail-lamps. Inside, the opulence continues with a Manufaktur leather interior, a state-of-the-art 27-speaker Burmester sound system, dual screens, rear infotainment displays, and ambient lighting. With both 4- and 6-seat configurations available globally, anticipation mounts regarding the variant India will receive.

Under the hood, the Maybach GLS 600 will maintain its 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, now enhanced with a 48-volt mild-hybrid motor, delivering an impressive 557bhp and 730Nm of torque. Meanwhile, the AMG S 63 E Performance, equipped with the same engine but featuring a plug-in hybrid system, achieves a staggering combined output of 802bhp and 1,430Nm, catapulting it to the title of the most powerful S-Class yet.

Beyond sheer power, both vehicles offer a plethora of luxury and performance features, from adaptive suspension and rear-axle steering to cutting-edge infotainment systems and advanced driver assistance technologies. However, as excitement mounts for their impending arrival, a cloud of controversy looms over their exorbitant price tags, expected to exceed Rs 3 crore for the Maybach GLS 600 and potentially reach Rs 3 crore to Rs 3.5 crore for the AMG S 63 E Performance.

While enthusiasts eagerly await the unveiling of these automotive marvels, questions arise regarding the justification of their steep prices in the Indian market. Will the unparalleled luxury and performance they offer be sufficient to sway consumers, or will affordability remain a significant concern? Only time will tell as Mercedes-Benz prepares to usher in a new era of automotive opulence in India.
