With the introduction of the Mercedes-Maybach G 650 Landaulet it would be fair to say that the legendary G-Class surpassed itself, combining luxury with a powerful engine and superior off-road capability like hardly any other vehicle before it. The open-top off-road vehicle united two traditions: firstly, the Mercedes-Benz landaulets that have typified open-air exclusivity and the highest level of comfort for over 100 years; and secondly, the G-Class has been the benchmark for off-road technology since 1979.
The extraordinary G 650 Landaulet was the first of its kind from Mercedes-Maybach and production was limited to only 99 units. With its superlative V12 engine, portal axles, electric fabric top and generous equipment specification in the rear compartment, this G-Class model met the expectations of customers who demand the very highest standards of their vehicle and want their open-top driving to be as exclusive as it is stylish.
"Today fascination with the G-Class is more prevalent than ever", said Gunnar Güthenke, Manager of Mercedes-Benz G GmbH. "It is a sought-after vehicle as it is forever reinventing itself – and yet remains true to its origins. It was and always will be unmistakably a G-Class, while at the same time offering plenty of opportunities for individual wishes. Our exclusive Landaulet model is the best example of this."
The G 650 Landaulet's vital statistics are as follows: a length of 5.345 metres; a wheelbase of 3.428 metres; a height of 2.235 metres; and almost half a metre of ground clearance as well as ample space and comfort for four passengers. "An off-road vehicle that is out of this world," is how AutoBild put it following the luxury off-roader's presentation.
This extravagant G-Class represents a unique combination of luxurious chauffeur-driven limousine and off-roader. While the driver and front passenger are accommodated under the closed roof, the rear passengers can enjoy maximum open-air pleasure as and when desired. They climb aboard via an electrically extending side-step, and at the press of a button a large folding top opens to offer a view of the sky. The rear passengers enjoy the majestic open-air experience from their single seats within a lounge-like atmosphere, familiar from the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. An electrically operated glass partition separates the rear compartment from the driver's section. In addition, the glass can be changed from transparent to opaque at the press of a button.
Thanks to the 578mm longer wheelbase compared to the standard G-Class, the passengers in the Mercedes-Maybach G 650 Landaulet benefit from greater freedom of movement, which is further enhanced by the sumptuous rear seats. The electrically multi-adjustable individual seats can be conveniently set to a fully reclined position. The active multi-contour seats with energising massage function have inflatable air chambers to provide exceptional seating comfort and excellent lateral support. Massage programmes relax tense muscles following the principle of a relaxing hot-stone massage. In addition, the seats can be ventilated – a relief on strenuous safaris, for example!
The rear seating concept is augmented by a calf rest, which is freely adjustable in length and swivel range. The rear passenger area strongly resembles the cockpit not only on account of the single seats, but also on account of the passenger grab handles typical of the G-Class, as well as a glove compartment for each rear passenger. The G 650 Landaulet's other appointments leave nothing to be desired. A large business console with insulated cup holders for keeping drinks cool or warm is integrated between the individual seats. The controls for opening or closing the glass partition are located behind the cup holders. In addition, there are control panels in the front and the rear.
In the front, the control panel can be used to control the differential locks, while in the rear the control panel featuring the same look has a button for the interior lighting and two more buttons to open and close the soft-top. Similar to an aircraft seat, the centre console comes with two tables, which can easily be folded in or out with one hand. The tabletops have leather inserts to provide a comfortable writing surface or to allow the use of tablets and notebooks. The buttons ahead of the cup holders regulate the air conditioning in the rear. And great entertainment is always ensured: the cross-member, which holds the glass partition, accommodates two 25.4 cm (10") high-resolution media displays.
The luxurious, exquisite character of the Landaulet is emphasised by the high-grade Designo upholstery with diamond stitching. This particular vehicle is finished in a most attractive combination of Designo Mystic White Bright with two-tone Designo Exclusive Classic red/black leather interior and black hood. As with all G-Class models, the G 650 Landaulet was produced almost completely by hand in the G-Class manufacturing facility at Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria.
'V12 BITURBO' lettering on the front wings points to the ultimate in motive power. The radiator grille features a chrome-plated double louvre and a chrome-plated screen. 'LANDAULET' lettering is worked into the rim flanges of the ceramically polished, 55.9 cm (22") five-star twin-spoke light-alloy wheels. Other exclusive exterior design features include front and rear rock guards; large wheelarch flares in genuine carbon fibre; and the rear-mounted spare wheel with integral holder for the third brake light.
As is customary with this off-road icon, the 'G' is forever breaking new ground: unlike previous Landaulets, which were based on prestigious saloons, the Mercedes-Maybach G 650 Landaulet also has what it takes to deliver an unforgettable off-road experience. Rock, water or dunes? Nothing is a problem for the extraordinary combination of off-road toughness on the one hand, and refinement on the other. Familiar from the AMG G 63 6x6 and G 500 4x42, the portal axles provide ample ground clearance of 450mm. This allows the open-top all-terrain vehicle to overcome even extreme obstacles in masterly fashion.
In contrast to a conventional rigid axle, the wheels are not at the height of the axle centre, but are instead situated much further down on the axle carriers in the portal transmission. Tyres of size 325/55 R 22 forms the ideal basis for perfect handling off-road. Of course it goes without saying that the typical 100% differential locks are a key component of this exceptional G', as well as the low range in the transfer case.
The combination of permanent all-wheel drive with the electronically controlled traction system (4ETS and ESP®), the low range gearbox, and the differential locks mean that this G-Class is well able to meet off-road demands while offering on-road driving safety typical of Mercedes-Benz.
The electronic traction system 4ETS turns on automatically when one or more wheels loose traction and then brakes them individually. This simultaneously increases the drive torque to the wheels with sufficient traction. 4ETS directs the drive force to the wheels with the best traction, making snow-covered and icy roads as well as demanding off-road tracks significantly easier to manage. The permanent all-wheel drive is designed for maximum traction and distributes the power to the front and rear axle at a ratio of 50:50.The three 100% differential locks bring the drive force to where traction is best. They can be individually engaged while driving.
The grip of just one wheel suffices for propulsion. The low range ensures maximum traction on difficult ground, for example in mud or sand. It can be engaged via the low range switch in transmission mode 'N' at speeds of up to 40km/h.
Superior driving comfort comes courtesy of the most powerful engine available - the Mercedes-AMG V12 biturbo - which delivers a maximum output of 463kW (630bhp) with a peak torque of 1,000 Newton-metres. The strengths of the 12-cylinder biturbo engine include its effortless acceleration in all speed ranges as well as refined operation with the distinctive V12 sound typical of AMG. In short: the power train makes for a superior performance in all conditions. Technical highlights of the AMG 6.0-litre V12 biturbo engine include an aluminium crankcase; a forged crankshaft made of high-quality alloy steel; multi-spark ignition with 12 twin-spark ignition coils; and an air/water inter-cooler with low-temperature circuit.
A masterpiece of automotive engineering, this desirable EU-version Mercedes-Maybach G 650 Landaulet was delivered and registered new in Belgium in 2018. It is one of the very few destined for the Belgian market. The registration was immediately cancelled and the car has never been driven since, it shows today only delivery mileage of just 70 kilometres from new.
Representing a possibly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of the most powerful, most exclusive and most luxurious off-roaders ever made, this gorgeous G 650 V12 Biturbo Landaulet is the absolute summum of the timeless and incredibly popular G-Class range. The car comes with Belgian registration documents, EU certificate of conformity (COC) and all original books.
