Even though the Maybach Exelero coupe received a lot of attention from consumers and the media, the Mercedes-Benz uber-luxury brand never put it into production (or even limited production). In fact, the Exelero was a one-off model commissioned by Fulda Tyres. Fulda used the car as a reference vehicle to test a new generation of [...]
While we’re not sure (and we don’t think Daimler is either) whether or not Maybach will stick around, Mercedes-Benz’s luxury brand did unveil a new facelift at the 2010 Beijing Motor Show last week.
