	2011 Maybach 62 S Zeppelin
	
	The Maybach brand is bringing out the new Maybach Zeppelin to spearhead its luxury saloon model range. The new model, which received its premiere at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, represents the absolute zenith in the high-end luxury saloon segment. This makes it a worthy successor to the legendary Maybach Zeppelin, which was revered worldwide as the ultimate in high-class automotive engineering in the 1930s. (continued below)

The hallmark features of the new Maybach flagship's unique sense of style 
include a stunning paint finish, featuring a shoulder line in a contrasting 
color, as well as the exquisite, meticulously crafted materials in the interior, 
whose long list of optional extras includes a world first - a highly 
sophisticated perfume atomizer. The new model's performance even outclasses the 
rest of the Maybach range, making it the most powerful Maybach ever. In a 
nutshell: the Maybach Zeppelin epitomizes stylish elegance and the art of 
vehicle manufacture at its most refined as no car has ever done before. The new 
Maybach Zeppelin is being built in a limited edition of just 100 worldwide.
Even today, the name "Zeppelin" has an incomparable ring to it in the realm 
of high-end luxury cars. As in bygone times, Maybach is once again building the 
Maybach Zeppelin for drivers who are seeking some-thing extra special, even in 
this most luxurious of automotive segments. Not only do the Maybach 57 Zeppelin 
and Maybach 62 Zeppelin stand out for their exquisite elegance, inventive ideas 
and phenomenal performance, only one hundred of these special models will be 
made worldwide.
Yet Greater Power for the Maybach Zeppelin
The Maybach 57 S and the long-wheelbase version, the 62 S, serve as the 
technical basis for the new range-topping model. Supreme performance is assured 
in both cases by the 6.0-liter V12 biturbo power unit under the hood, which now 
delivers 631 hp and a peak torque of 738 lb-ft.
A Two-Tone Exterior 
Identifies the New Maybach Flagship
Whatever angle it is viewed from, 
the new Maybach Zeppelin radiates character and the sort of style which appeals 
to all the senses. From the outside, the luxury brand's new top-of-the-range 
model can be recognized by its two-tone special paint finish. The shoulder line 
is painted right through to the background of the headlamp assemblies in Rocky 
Mountains light brown, which forms a stylish and scintillating contrast to the 
Taiga black finish used for the rest of the vehicle body. Dark red tail light 
units and a fine vertical partition in the tailpipe add striking visual touches 
at the rear. Naturally, customers may also specify their Maybach Zeppelin in 
additional paint finishes should they wish.
