Between the Mercedes S600 and the Maybach 57 there is a 200,000 euro gap. This gap will soon be filled by a new model, the Maybach 51.

DaimlerChrysler is trying to fill the gap between the Maybach 57 and the Mercedes S600, and that’s the difference between their prices, 384,000 euro and 150,000 euro. It will be filled by a new model, under the Maybach name. While the Mercedes model sells very well, and the Maybach one has only special clients, a new luxury car with a price tag around 200,000 euros would fit the gap quite nicely. Its main competitor would be the Bentley Continental.
