"When Mercedes-Maybach announced that only 50 V12 Edition models would be produced worldwide, the move immediately sparked interest among collectors and enthusiasts. This special edition is more than a status symbol; it is an homage to nearly a century of Maybach innovation, dating back to the legendary Maybach Zeppelin of 1928. That model debuted with a 7.0-liter V-12 engine delivering 150 horsepower, a figure that was groundbreaking for its time and remained impressive decades later."
"Beneath the hood, the V12 Edition features a handcrafted 6.0-liter V-12 that produces enough torque to propel the luxury sedan from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.5 seconds. While that time may not rival lightweight supercars, it is remarkable considering the sedan tips the scales at more than two and a half tons. The electronically limited top speed of 155 mph underscores Mercedes' commitment to both power and safety."
Mercedes-Maybach released a 50-unit S680 V12 Edition that honors nearly a century of Maybach innovation beginning with the 1928 Maybach Zeppelin. The Zeppelin debuted with a 7.0-liter V-12 producing 150 horsepower, while the new V12 Edition uses a handcrafted 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-12 delivering over four times that power. The luxury sedan accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 4.5 seconds despite weighing more than two and a half tons, with an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph. Exterior craftsmanship includes a two-tone olive metallic and obsidian black finish requiring a ten-day paint process for exclusivity and refinement.
