  • The 2026 Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 — often referred to online as the “GLS 680” — is Mercedes’ answer to Rolls-Royce and Bentley in the SUV world. It combines limousine-level comfort, handcrafted luxury, and V8 performance into one of the most extravagant SUVs ever built.
  • The interior of the 2026 Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 — often called the “Maybach 680” online — is designed to feel more like a private luxury lounge than a traditional SUV cabin. Every detail focuses on comfort, craftsmanship, silence, and rear-passenger luxury.

  • Cabin Design Philosophy

    Instead of a sporty cockpit, the cabin emphasizes:

    • Soft materials

    • Open space

    • Relaxation

    • Chauffeur-style comfort

    • Ultra-quiet isolation

    The dashboard combines modern digital technology with traditional luxury materials like:

    • Hand-finished wood

    • Polished aluminum

    • Crystal-style controls

    • Thick Nappa leather

    • Piano-black accents

    The design is elegant rather than aggressive.

    Front Interior Layout

    The front cabin features dual 12.3-inch displays integrated into the Mercedes MBUX system

    You get:

    • Fully digital gauge cluster

    • Large infotainment touchscreen

    • Voice assistant (“Hey Mercedes”)

    • Augmented navigation

    • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    • Gesture and touch controls

    The steering wheel is wrapped in leather and optional wood/leather combinations for a more classic luxury feel.

    Ambient lighting stretches across the entire cabin with dozens of customizable colors, creating a futuristic night-time atmosphere.

    Seats — The Real Highlight

    The seats are where the Maybach separates itself from ordinary luxury SUVs.

    Front Seats

    The front seats include:

    • Heating

    • Cooling

    • Massage programs

    • Memory settings

    • Lumbar adjustment

    • Thigh support

    Mercedes uses extremely soft Exclusive Nappa leather throughout the cabin

    Rear Executive Seats

    The rear seats are the centerpiece of the vehicle.

    The SUV comes standard as a four- or five-seat luxury configuration, with many buyers choosing the executive 4-seat setup. 

    Rear passengers get:

    • Fully reclining seats

    • Heated and ventilated cushions

    • Massage functions

    • Extended leg rests

    • Individual climate controls

    • Wireless charging

    • Tablet controls

    Rear legroom reaches over 43 inches, giving limousine-like space. (Edmunds)

    The seats can recline deeply, turning the rear cabin into a relaxation suite during long drives.

    Rear Luxury Features

    Mercedes offers several ultra-luxury rear-seat options including:

    • Folding airline-style tables

    • Refrigerated compartment

    • Champagne flute holders

    • Silver champagne glasses

    • Rear entertainment screens

    These features are specifically designed for chauffeur-driven owners.

    The center console between the rear seats feels like a business-class airline armrest mixed with a private jet cabin.

    Sound and Quietness

    The cabin is engineered for silence.

    Mercedes uses:

    • Acoustic glass

    • Heavy insulation

    • Active noise reduction

    • Advanced suspension tuning

    Road and wind noise are almost completely isolated.

    The Burmester 4D sound system includes:

    • 27 speakers

    • 1,590 watts

    • Speakers integrated into the seats for vibration-based audio effects

    Music inside the Maybach feels immersive and theater-like.

    Roof and Lighting

    The panoramic roof makes the cabin feel enormous.

    Ambient lighting flows through:

    • Dashboard

    • Doors

    • Footwells

    • Rear console

    • Roof sections

    At night, the interior looks almost futuristic while still maintaining classic luxury warmth.

    Some custom versions also feature electronically adjustable roof shading for extra privacy and comfort.

    Technology and Passenger Experience

    Rear passengers can control many vehicle functions through touchscreens and tablets.

    Features include:

    • Rear entertainment displays

    • Multi-zone climate control

    • Powered window shades

    • Seat adjustment memory

    • Mood lighting presets

    The MBUX system also learns passenger habits over time.

    Space and Comfort

    Unlike many three-row SUVs, the Maybach removes focus from maximum seating and prioritizes personal space.

    Cargo space is smaller because the rear cabin is optimized for luxury rather than practicality. 

    This SUV is built for:

    • VIP transport

    • Executive travel

    • Chauffeur service

    • Luxury family touring

    Overall Interior Experience

    The 2026 Mercedes-Maybach GLS interior feels closer to:

    • a private jet cabin

    • an ultra-luxury hotel lounge

    • a rolling executive office

    than a traditional SUV.

    Everything is designed to reduce stress and maximize comfort:

    • soft ride

    • silent cabin

    • reclining massage seats

    • handcrafted materials

    • advanced digital technology

    That combination is what makes the Maybach GLS one of the most luxurious SUV interiors in the world today. 

  • Mercedes built the Maybach interior around one idea: “first-class travel.”


  • Exterior Design
  • The first thing you notice is presence. The massive chrome Maybach grille, illuminated running boards, and optional two-tone paint instantly separate it from a standard GLS. Every angle screams prestige rather than aggression.
  • Mercedes also introduced darker “Night Series” styling options for 2026, adding blacked-out accents and exclusive wheel designs for buyers wanting a more modern luxury look. 
  • The proportions are enormous:

  • Nearly 205 inches long

  • 23-inch wheels available

  • Signature Maybach chrome everywhere

  • This is not a subtle SUV. It’s designed to arrive, not just drive.
  • Interior — First-Class Lounge on Wheels
  • Inside is where the Maybach earns its badge.
  • The rear seats are the highlight:

  • Executive reclining seats

  • Ventilation, heating, and massage

  • Folding tables

  • Champagne cooler option

  • Burmester 4D sound system

  • Soft Nappa leather covering almost every surface

  • Mercedes removed the third-row seats to create massive rear legroom. The cabin feels closer to a private jet than a family SUV
  • Ambient lighting, wood trim, OLED displays, and ultra-soft materials create an atmosphere that few SUVs can match.
  • Performance
  • Under the hood sits a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 with mild-hybrid assistance producing around 550 horsepower and 568 lb-ft of torque. 
  • Performance numbers are shocking for something this heavy:

  • 0–60 mph in around 4.6–4.7 seconds

  • 9-speed automatic transmission

  • Standard AWD

  • E-Active Body Control suspension

  • The suspension is the magic feature. Cameras scan the road ahead and prepare the suspension before bumps happen, making the SUV feel like it’s floating. 
  • Despite weighing over 6,300 pounds, reviewers consistently praise how refined and composed it feels.
  • Technology
  • The SUV comes loaded with:

  • Dual large MBUX screens

  • Augmented reality navigation

  • Rear entertainment system

  • 360-degree cameras

  • Advanced driver assistance

  • Air purification system

  • Rear-seat tablet controls

  • Everything operates with the smoothness expected from a flagship luxury vehicle.
  • Driving Experience
  • This Maybach is not about sporty handling. It’s about isolation.
  • Road noise is nearly nonexistent. The steering is light, the ride is incredibly soft, and passengers feel detached from the outside world.
  • Most reviewers describe it as:

  • “Rolling luxury suite”

  • “Private jet on wheels”

  • “One of the smoothest SUVs ever made” 

  • Pros

  • Exceptional ride comfort

  • Stunning rear-seat luxury

  • Powerful V8 performance

  • Advanced suspension technology

  • Extremely quiet cabin

  • Cons

  • Very expensive (around $180,000+ starting price)

  • Limited cargo space compared to rivals

  • Fuel economy is poor

  • Styling may feel too flashy for some buyers (

  • Final Verdict
  • The 2026 Mercedes-Maybach GLS is less of an SUV and more of a luxury statement. It’s built for owners who want chauffeur-level comfort while still having the ability to drive a 550-horsepower machine themselves.
  • If Rolls-Royce Cullinan feels too traditional and Bentley Bentayga feels too sporty, the Maybach sits perfectly in the middle:

  • smoother than a performance SUV

  • more modern than a Rolls-Royce

  • more extravagant than almost anything else on the road

  • For buyers seeking maximum comfort, prestige, and technology in an SUV, the Maybach GLS remains one of the ultimate choices in 2026.

Audi RSQ8

It’s essentially a “super SUV” that blends luxury, practicality, and insane performance—sharing core engineering with the Lamborghini Urus but at a much lower price point. For 2025, Audi updated it with a more aggressive design and a new “Performance” version pushing power even higher. ⚡ Performance & Engine Engine: 4.0L twin-turbo V8 Power: ~631 hp / 627 lb-ft torque 0–100 km/h (0–60 mph): ~3.1 seconds Top speed: up to ~305 km/h (190 mph) Drivetrain: Quattro AWD + 8-speed automatic This thing is brutally quick—matching or even beating some supercars.
