Stunning coachbuilt Maybach 57S has two less doors and costs more than $900,000.
Based on the Maybach 57S limousine, the XENATEC coupe is the latest creation of Karosserie Manufaktur Weinsberg - a division of XENATEC Group - in cooperation with Maybach. This dynamic interpretation of driver-oriented luxury sets new standards in terms of exclusivity. A very limited number of Maybach coupes will be hand-built in Germany. Pricing has been set at $939,000, but will fluctuate in the U.S. depending upon Euro-Dollar conversion.
Designed by Fredrik Burchhardt, creator of the dramatic Exelero (a joint Fulda Tyre Company/Maybach project in 2004-2005), the XENATEC Coupe is for the enthusiast who prefers to savor the Maybach experience from the driver’s seat. The XENATEC Coupe is a technical masterpiece offering uncompromised comfort together with ample space and superior agility and performance.
The evolution from limousine to coupe involves major changes to bodywork and interior, but none to the drivetrain - and to the already impressive performance - of the Maybach 57S. Compared to the Maybach 57S limousine, major changes have been also made to the immensely strong bodywork, which has been completely redesigned and engineered and features new doors allowing for easy access to the rear passenger compartment.
The windshield and rear backlight are more steeply raked for a sporty silhouette, lowering the roofline without compromising passenger comfort. A full glass roof can be fitted if desired, as can almost all other options available for the Maybach 57S.
The doors and side panels as well as the front and rear fenders are new, as are the front and rear bumpers. Rear track is increased by 20-mm, and the standard 20-inch wheels allow for a supple ride. Optional 21-inch wheels sharpen handling to sports car levels, bringing the Maybach experience to the driver’s seat.
XENATEC Group produces bespoke vehicles such as individual luxury automobiles and armored limousines. It is also an OEM vendor, supplying automotive clients with a broad range of “white-metal” components for specialized vehicles. XENATEC builds prototypes and test vehicles for several German car manufacturers.
Every single XENATEC vehicle is coachbuilt to individual customer specifications and handcrafted in Germany. Personalization opportunities, including styling, engineering armoring, are almost boundless.
