A new ultraluxury player is in town and AutoKingdom, a dealer in Saudi Arabia is the first to offer the Xenatech Maybach 57S Coupe to buyers who have the means to fork out the $943,000 for such a car. Designed by Burch Fred Hardt, the new coupe, called the Cruiserio, "demonstrates a vision for design and production which AutoKingdom shares with the two German companies. This vision is the result of intellectual cooperation," said Waleed Abdullah Al-Hokair, Chariman of AutoKingdom. The Coupe shares the same platform as the sedan, but it is wider and lower. Depending on the customer, the car is shod with 20- or 21-inch rims and benefits from the Maybach facelift. Like standard Maybach offerings, the Xenatec coupe offers a complete four-year unlimited mileage warranty and a four-year service & repair package.

At the heart of the Cruiserio is a 6.0 liter V12 unit that delivers 612 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque. The engine provides the power to accelerate the car to 100 km/h in 5 seconds, and brings it to a top speed of 275 kilometers per hour.
Only 100 units of the car will be produced, which guarantees a very high degree of exclusivity in today's world of mass-produced cars. Current orders already account for the next 9-12 months of production for this exclusive ultraluxury coupe.

Neat but I prefer the wow factor of the Exelero.

 

How is this better than the CL65 in which it is based?

This is why Maybach is failing. Even Lincoln can razzle-dazzle the Edge better than Maybach is rebadging the MB.

 

I don't know if they're failing since these cars are selling.
I am sure the interior would be just as elaborate as the previous Maybachs.

 

Really? I'm sure even Mercedes would disagree with you.

 

Maybe on previous sedans, but not on the new coupe
