This Is In The,

'may I have one please?' department,


 the car in question the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Cabriolet, featuring a design inspired by art deco, 

 the two-seater car is primarily designed as an electric model, and is powered by four battery-operated motors that offer over 300 kilometres of driving distance,

 "The Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Cabriolet is a car which, with its sensual, emotionally appealing design and innovative technical concept solutions, defines the ultimate in luxury of the future," said Mercedes-Benz, "At the same time, the two-seater model pays homage to the glorious automotive haute couture of hand-finished, exclusive cabriolets, the glamorous cabriolet reinterprets classic, emotional design principles in an extravagant way and combines intelligent beauty with classic, aesthetic proportions and a reduced, 'technoid' appearance."

 it is the first open-top Maybach model produced by Mercedes-Benz in decades, 

 you may have noticed the car is extremely long, it measures almost six metres in length, mostly made up by its extremely long bonnet, well where else would you keep your fully stocked dinner service and space for luggage?

the car's sweeping exterior is based on that of a yacht, and is painted in a dark blue named "nautical blue metallic", with chrome highlights on its sides, bonnet and boot, the grille is based on the lines on a pinstripe suit, while alloy wheels are plated with rose gold, speaking of the wheels for the amount of money this is going to cost I would have thought the emblems in the middle of the wheel would rotate, like they do on quality cars like Bentley's, so the when the car comes to rest the emblem is always the correct way up, silly to nit-pick, but there it is,

and what a looker at night!

inside the car, which the company describes as an "open-air luxury lounge", white leather has been used to upholster the seats, with trimmings finished in rose-gold threads, wood flooring, in a nod to yachting, is used throughout the interior, under the bonnet and in the boot, as far as performance is concerned Mercedes says the 740bhp electric powertrain, made up of four compact electric motors powering each wheel, can propel the car to 62mph in under four seconds and has a projected range of 310 kilometres, regarding price, if you have to ask you cannot afford it!
