Mercedes-Maybach Unveils Exclusive Celebratory S-Class
Marking the 150th anniversary of renowned silver and yacht manufacturer Robbe & Berking.
Mercedes-Maybach has unveiled an exclusive S-Class model to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Robbe & Berking, a renowned silver and yacht manufacturer. This unique vehicle draws design inspiration from the legendary SPHINX 12mR yacht, a celebrated symbol of elegance and craftsmanship.
The SPHINX yacht, built in 1939 and restored by Robbe & Berking Classics in 2008, boasts a rich history. This restoration project resulted in the revival of a historic vessel and also laid the foundation for Robbe & Berking’s yacht shipyard. Reflecting this heritage, the anniversary Mercedes-Maybach S 680 features a two-tone paint finish: nautical blue metallic on the upper section and MANUFAKTUR patagonia red on the lower section, accented by a pinstripe in MANUFAKTUR opalite white metallic, mirroring the yacht’s lines.
Inside, the vehicle showcases Maybach MANUFAKTUR Exclusive nappa leather in crystal white with orion grey topstitching, embodying the aesthetic of sails. Wood walnut trim with aluminum decorative strips enhances the maritime feel, while the nappa leather cushions add a touch of luxury. High-end features include electric comfort doors, illuminated door sill trims, a Burmester 4D surround sound system, MBUX rear-seat entertainment and a cooling compartment with silver-plated champagne goblets from Robbe & Berking.
“This wonderful anniversary vehicle is another sign of the friendship that has long connected Maybach and Robbe & Berking. We are also united by shared passions: Craftsmanship, the finest materials and timelessly beautiful lines – on the road as well as on the water,” shared Oliver Berking, the Managing Director of Robbe & Berking.
