The impetus for the relaunch of Maybach was a new concept for the development of the Mercedes-Benz brand. The manufacturer is going to gradually remove cars up to the E-class. The explanation is simple - due to the rejection of manual transmissions and internal combustion engines, Mercedes will have to restart all its models.
What's the point of producing multiple classes when you can focus on luxury versions and make the brand once again available only to the richest? And in the categories below “business” there are too many competitors.

The idea to restart the Maybach division has been around for a long time. On May 18, 2022, the manufacturer showed the concept of a luxurious Haute Voiture. This sedan, even against the background of the most expensive Maybach production models, looked like a gentleman in a crowd of ragamuffins.
The concept car simply struck the imagination with its royal luxury. Having retained the traditional appearance, the model has changed beyond recognition in the cabin. This finish is not found even in modifications from third-party tuning agencies. Design reminiscent of Chanel suits, exotic animal skins, furs, gold, luxury accessories.
The Haute Voiture sedan aroused genuine interest not only among the visitors of the exhibition, but also among potential customers. The CEO of Mercedes-Benz immediately reacted to the public reaction. And recently it was announced about the transition of the Maybach brand to a new, even more luxurious level. Haute Voiture will be the benchmark for all future models of the Maybach brand.
After analyzing the market, the manufacturer decided that it was necessary to focus on the production of cars so luxurious that they simply could not be equal. Whether such models will be in demand - time will tell.

In any case, Mercedes-Benz will not do anything at random. The official statement about the relaunch of the Maybach brand hints that serious analytical work has been carried out. In the future, everything will depend on competent marketing.
Maybach will also develop in the spirit of the times - they plan to equip cars with powerful electric motors. The first step towards this has been made - the concept prototype of the Project Maybach SUV was presented to the public.
It turns out that Maybach cars in the coming years will become not just inaccessible, but insanely expensive.
