Maybach ends in 2013

The decision by Dieter Zetsche, CEO of Mercedes, not to approve the plans for the replacement model of the Maybach 57 and 62 was more than halfway to the ax fell on the mark of prestige restored in 2002 after Mercedes have failed to buy Rolls-Royce group Vickers.

And why exactly well placed sources spoke to the CEO of Daimler, Dieter Zetsche, who said in an interview with German newspaper "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung" that "would not be wise to develop a successor to the current Maybach, because the numerous conversations we were having about what the future of the luxury segment eventually reveal that the greatest success in this niche is the part of the Mercedes Maybach. "

That is, without telling the CEO of Daimler announced the end of Maybach and will pull even more Mercedes-up to the division of Rolls-Royce and Bentley. It is also the assumption of the failure of the strategy of Mercedes in recovering an ancient name for combat success of Rolls-Royce under BMW and Bentley hat under the protection of the VW group.
