Maybach Cars

Founded in 1909, Maybach was synonymous with ultra-luxury cars. It was revived by Mercedes-Benz as a premium sub-brand offering bespoke versions of the S-Class, including the Maybach S 580 and GLS 600. The name returned as a standalone ultra-luxury car brand in 2002, sharing significant components with Mercedes-Benz cars. After slow sales, Maybach ceased to be a standalone brand by 2013, and it became (in 2015) a sub-brand of Mercedes-Benz, which the Mercedes-Benz Group owns.
