2011 Maybach 62 special protection


2011 Maybach 62 special protection Gamestands out for its unbridled levels in luxury, performance and limitless personalization. And when it comes to passenger protection, we pushed the boundaries even further, reaching a very high level of safety with a factory-made solution.

A Maybach Guard is the answer to the needs of Heads of State or businessmen, looking for discreet protection aboard their saloons during their journeys. This occurs without missing the luxurious environment the passengers are used to enjoy.
Mercedes Guard models, the new Maybach Guard is based on the concept of integrated special protection. This means that the protective features such as those used for the doors, rear wall, side panels, roof lining and firewall are not retrofitted to a finished vehicle as an afterthought, but are instead integrated into the bodyshell in a dedicated manufacturing environment.

The state-of-the-art Maybach "Manufaktur" is ideally suited to this process. It is here that highly skilled specialists with unrivalled technical know-how carefully integrate special-protection features into the vehicles as they are built.

No changes have been made to the drive train, suspension or breaking-system and the car handles effortlessly at all times. Maybach also makes the bold claim that its Guard armored car is the only one in the world that can reach a speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 5.7 seconds.

The Guard model is also said to be virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye from an unprotected Maybach 62, so if you want to know what it looks like, check out the recently revised model range in the gallery below. Official announcement in the press release
