New Maybach SUV promises 372 miles of range and 658hp of silent running.

It’s often said that electric power for high-end luxury cars is the most natural fit for zero-emission motoring. Weight is less of an issue because luxury, by its very nature, adds things that aren’t technically necessary. Also, the high cost of big batteries is not such a problem when you’re marketing to the world’s wealthiest men and women. And then there’s the silence and shove of an electric car, which, if anything, improves the in-car experience.

‘The classic MAYBACH lettering is discreetly incorporated into a chrome plated decorative strip, which forms a unit with the continuous light strip of the standard DIGITAL LIGHT headlights. DIGITAL LIGHT welcomes and says goodbye to the driver with a special light show.’ Ahh, it says hello and goodbye in a pre-programmed, completely inanimate way. How lovely. Now that really is quality.

As you might expect, there are lots of nice, warm materials on show. This includes sustainably processed nappa leather in various colour combinations and natural woods like brown, open-pore birch or walnut. There are also the usual pillows on the headrests and a ‘stainless steel pedal system.’ I am assuming this means the pedals are made from stainless steel, and it’s not some sort of Flintstones’ style propulsion system just in case the battery dies.

I mean fair enough but it's an awful looking thing.

Yuck

People who can afford these cars don’t need 372 miles of range since they probably use one of their 5 jets to cover a distance that’s more than 100 miles…

Looks like a taxi

That is extraordinarily ugly!!!
