2025 Mercedes-Maybach SL680 4matic

The Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series marks Maybach's historic debut in the compact roadster segment, transforming the sporty Mercedes-AMG SL (R232) into the benchmark for "Haute Voiture" (high automotive fashion).

The car shifts the focus from aggressive dynamics to absolute comfort and visual exclusivity.

The model is presented in two curated design concepts: Red Ambience (two-tone red/black) and White Ambience (white/black).

The model is based on a 4.0-liter V8 Biturbo engine borrowed from the SL 63 version, but retuned for Maybach's signature smooth ride.

Power is 585 hp, torque is 800 Nm.

The key differences from the AMG versions are softer engine mounts, an optimized accelerator pedal for linear acceleration, and enhanced sound insulation.

Power is transmitted through a 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission to 4MATIC all-wheel drive.

Performance: Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 4.1 seconds.

The top speed is electronically limited to 260 km/h (compared to 315 km/h for the AMG), which emphasizes its status as a cruiser rather than a sports car.

The exterior is replete with unique details: for the first time on an SL model, a vertical three-pointed star is mounted on the hood.

The signature Maybach chrome radiator grille is illuminated.

The hood (optional) is decorated with a hand-applied pattern of Maybach logos in graphite gray.

The soft folding roof is made of light black acoustic fabric with a subtle pattern of brand emblems.

The look is completed by 21-inch forged wheels (with multi-spoke or monoblock design).

The interior is dominated by crystal white Nappa leather, which covers almost everything from the seats with signature perforations to the door cards and center console.

The dashboard, steering wheel, and pedal assembly are specific to Maybach.

A noise-absorbing package makes the interior significantly quieter than the original SL.
