Mercedes-Benz will use the backdrop of this month’s 2024 Monterey Car Week<\/a> to present the first Maybach-enhanced SL, the automaker said on Thursday.<\/p>\n

To be known as the Mercedes-Maybach SL, the car will make its debut on Aug. 18 on the concept lawn at the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, the premier event of Monterey Car Week.<\/p>\n

Mercedes hasn’t released any further information but camouflaged prototypes<\/a> have been spotted in the past, revealing unique designs for the hood, fascias, and exhaust tips compared to the regular AMG SL<\/a>. Also spotted on the prototypes was a typical Maybach grille with thin vertical slats, a motif inspired by a pinstripe suit.<\/p>\n

A teaser photo of a Maybach SL concept released in 2022 showed a red car with a contrasting black hood littered with tiny Maybach logos, a detail that may be offered as an option on the production model.<\/p>\n

The launch of the Maybach SL is part of Mercedes’ strategy announced in 2022 in which the automaker plans to focus more on lower-volume, higher-margin vehicles. Since then, Mercedes has added a Maybach EQS SUV and previewed an SL speedster<\/a>. The latter will be the first member of a new Mythos series of in-house coachbuilt specials.<\/p>\n

Monterey Car Week runs Aug. 9-18. Mercedes will also use the event to present the Maybach S680 Edition Nordic Glow. The limited-edition sedan will be built in a run of 50 units, exclusively for the U.S. market.<\/p>\n

Mercedes will also present in Monterey a special-edition AMG GT3 race car. The car was developed to celebrate the 130th anniversary of Mercedes’ role in motorsports<\/a>, and will be limited to 13 units. Mercedes hasn’t said in what markets the car will be offered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
