The Maybach arm of Mercedes-Benz recently released news about the G650 Landaulet and now the Style section of the company has unveiled plans to move into aviation with a private jet. Created in collaboration with Lufthansa Technik, the layout of the plane has been adapted so it’s more akin to a luxurious apartment than a plane, with a lounge space, chef’s kitchen area, dining room, entertainment zone, chill-out area, and a bedroom. There’s no release date yet, but it will be unveiled during Monaco’s Yacht Show in September 2017 and you can see more information about the jet on Mercedes-Benz’s website.
