Stuttgart -- The launch of the Maybach 57 and Maybach 62 high-end luxury Saloons marks the rebirth of one of the world's most prestigious and elite car brands after an absence of over 60 years. Sales of these masterpieces of automotive design will begin on May 27, 2002 and the first customers will take delivery of their high-end luxury vehicles in the autumn. Interested customers should contact any Mercedes-Benz dealer, who will put them in touch with the Maybach Personal Liaison Manager (PLM). The model names Maybach 57 and Maybach 62 are a reference to the imposing length of the unique Saloons, whose body lengths of 5.73 and 6.17 meters respectively translate into unrivalled space and comfort. The Maybach 57 will cost 310,000 euros, while DaimlerChrysler has priced the flagship Maybach 62 model at 360,000 euros in Europe (in each case excluding local taxes). Both Maybach models come with a comprehensive warranty from Daimler-Chrysler, which covers all servicing and maintenance costs incurred by the Saloons within a term agreed with the customer. In many countries, transportation of the Maybach free of charge from where it is kept to the nearest Service Center is also included in the service package offered for the prestige car brand.
