Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 Night Series launched, an exclusive version of its flagship luxury SUV, priced at Rs. 3.71 crores (ex-showroom). This new variant builds on the already opulent GLS 600 by adding unique cosmetic enhancements while retaining its powerful performance and extensive features.
The Night Series stands out with its distinctive dual-tone paint scheme, combining Mojave Silver on the upper half and Onyx Black on the lower half. The exterior is further accentuated by:
- Blacked-out trim elements.
- Rose gold accents on the grille and headlights.
- 22-inch Maybach-specific alloy wheels, which mirror the design of those on the Maybach EQS 680 SUV Night Series.
Inside, the Maybach GLS 600 Night Series continues the theme of dark elegance with bespoke Nappa leather upholstery, complemented by wood and aluminium accents. The cabin exudes luxury with features like:
- 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system.
- 27-speaker sound system.
- 64-colour ambient lighting.
- Electrically adjustable seats with memory, massage, and ventilation functions.
- An exclusive Night Series animation on the digital instrument cluster.
Under the hood, the Night Series retains the 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 petrol engine, producing 550 HP and 770 Nm of torque. This is aided by a 48V mild-hybrid system that adds an extra 250 Nm boost for seamless acceleration.
