Talking about Mercedes, meaning Maybach

In August, in California, as part of the annual Monterey Car Week, a presentation of the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 concept took place. A red coupe with chrome inserts the length of a 20-foot yacht fit perfectly into the society of the automobile aristocracy. A long hood, a teardrop-shaped silhouette, separate rear glazing, and boat tail-style sterns - designers from Stuttgart ideally mastered the dress code for sports cars of the "beautiful era". “This is probably the most glamorous coupe in the history of the brand,” admits their chef Gordon Wagener. “But at the same time, the Vision MercedesMaybach 6 does not copy the classic automobile traditions - it creatively processes them. As a result, the car turned out to be not only stylish, but also hot.”
Four synchronized DC motors with a total capacity of 750 horsepower accelerate a six-meter car to 100 km / h in 4 seconds - and this is actually all-wheel drive. The battery capacity is 80 kilowatt hours or 500 km of travel. You can charge the battery from a household electrical outlet, at "gas stations" for electric vehicles, or without wires at all - in an electromagnetic field.

There is a function of accelerated charging, gaining a range of 100 km in five minutes. Rising doors-wings open access to the salon, which the creators characterize modestly: 360˚luxury. The floor here, for example, is wooden, made of elm. The leather of the seats is not only stitched in the Chesterfield style, but also hides sensors that adjust the shape of the seats to fit the figure.
In addition to leather and wood, pink gold is also present in the interior decoration. All other free surfaces are touchscreens that control acoustics, power windows and other components of comfort. The central tunnel in the cabin between the seats is made transparent and electric sparks slip beautifully during movement, although this, of course, is a pure props.
