Agree! Where are the direct injection hydrogen engine! These Mercedes dudes needs to get a reality check or we all are forced to buy Toyotas with hydrogen engines next time.
The attention for detail in this car is amazing, so smooth as all the motorized things work, those emergency seats and the glass panel, and the cup holder mechanism
LOL. The US President wouldn't be caught dead in that. Actually he probably would end up dead in that tin can. "The Beast" is a state of the art, bulletproof tank with all kinds of electronic protections and communications gear, but cost many millions to build. And best of all, it's a Cadillac - the standard of the world!
@@obliteratedcisco4709 nope this should be your always concern because it is bought with your money not them. The idiotic thoughts like this causing huge amount of corruption and money waste because the money should be used for people’s living standarts costs way more than personal expenses like this. Be aware of your money. President is no more than a worker like you. Nobody forced them to do the job they volunteered for it. It is not their right to live in luxury.
I really enjoyed this video. It's so nice to hear someone correctly pronounce "Maybach". I haven't seen another video on a Pullman model and I greatly appreciate your having made this one. Thanks!
It’s luxurious, yes. But, there is one little mistake: the front grill in the car information screen of the emergency seat is sadly not the same one as the car itself has. In this price class the Facelift has to be done in the software, too. 😉
No this is a "tender" vehicle. From your private jet airport to your point-of-interest and back. Like a fancy tender for your private yacht. You don't cross the Pacific with your tender, do you?
Beautiful Car - The Only complaint I have with the Pullman is the jump seats, they should mirror the nice back seats not detract from the interior. (Although it would require additional interior space, An XL version It should (at least) be offered as an option). The monitors in the seats can be moved to the divider as a single large screen that can be divided (software - if ness) into two individual screens.
This is not a criticism, but the extra (rear facing) rear seats are perfect the way they are. The car is really only made to transport one or two people in style/comfort. The rear facing seats are "emergency seats" (as the person in the video states). They are there for children or assistants. If a person needs to transport more people in style/comfort, I am sure they would have other options than the Pullman. The car is already super long. You can't really make it longer without significantly impacting handling/drivability. While it would fit in my garages, most will find it hard to put in their standard garages or even parking spaces. The Pullman is 6.5m in length (over 21 feet long) and standard garages have 20 feet depth external dimensions...18-19 feet internal. Even 4 car garages that are typically deeper have an internal depth of just 21-22 feet making for a very tight fit. The only thing that makes this car even more impressive is...the S-Guard option which gives the Pullman the highest grade of civilian armor plating available.
@@samshare2146 Thanks for the feedback. Looking at spec sheets and pics doesn't do things justice. I was thinking length/parking in terms of a warehouse, not a std garage (More 'Estate" Less 'City". As you point out it's for 2 passengers, (not Spouse, Sec. & Guard). Yes - Impressed with the S-Guard Package! (I'd still like the seats - but no 110" Stretch clown car - LOL - Ah, to have such worries... We'll work on the seats when I have the cash... LOL) 😀
@@samshare2146 I would think if you are importand enough to be driven around in this car the escorting police just closes down a line of the road for you to use as a parking space until you get back lol For storing, I don't know where the government puts their rolling stock but I guess they have people figure that out for them
The watch he is wearing is a Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph Frosted Gold Purple. It’s limited to 200 pieces and the cheapest I was able to find it was 180k usd. For comparison, same model with the blue dial also frosted is about 220k usd.
Protip: If you're going to be mostly on one side of the camera and mostly behind it while the camera moves with you, you don't need a stereo microphone, and you especially do not ever just upload the video with the off-kilter stereo.
"Normally when you sit at this place you don't have to..." @7:56 Exactly LOL. You sit on that rear seat you're basically set for life. People come to you for work, not the other way around. haha.
Well, year 2021 and we have UI Design from 2004 and a Phone/Remote thingy from 1999. I might be picky but come on that car costs probably 500k to 1m. You cant tell me someone sitting in the car is like oh yeah comfi seats. That will happen the first few times but then that stuff becomes passive enjoyment while the interactive Screens and stuff will be used frequently and dont look and feel modern but outdated.
Glaciologist drilling icecores in Greenland have, by measuring airbubbles captured in the ice, established that we the last 500.000 years have had a pretty stable carbon PPM at 220. With a few periods peaking at 280 PPM. Those peaks have been connected to many large Vulcanic eruptions at the same time globally. Since around the beginning of the industrial revolution PPM has exploded. We are now (2021) at 416 PPM, close to double the amount we have seen last 500.000 year. Just to set the amount of 500.000 years in context, man left Africa around 60.000 years ago. Wake up please. We all need to ACT NOW. Its really pure Darwin. Adapt or die (out eventually). If we scan, and we do, the globe, for optimal placements for off shore windmill parks we currently have identified overall areas that covers the global need for Electricity, hereunder electricity for producing needed hydrogen to replace our complete needed consumption more than 35 times and counting. If we imagined we had our electricity covered, converted to the area we need to place windmills in, we would immediately better our oceans, through the many many mini reefs that are natural homes for mussles and seaweed, that again gives a home for small fish. These fish nurseries gives grounds for all sorts of life. Symbiotically it combined removes acidity from the oceans by filtering. Furthermore it oxidizes the oceans significantly. Due to the actual rise of water temperature around the globe, not least via the Gulf Stream, through the thermohaline system, the oceans reefs, are under actual negative influence. The amount of bleaching events the last decades have been on a sharp rise,. More and more local extreme weather-related phenomena's have participated in large areas, that experience the complete eradication of life, in their former pristine coral reefs. They had functioned in perfect symbioses along large parts of their coastline for thousand of years. The bad news are that where large areas are affected, reality shows that the chalk in the reefs disintegrates in a few years after the last devasting bleaching event. Every single global reef constitutes a vital part, of humans and other species, food chain. If we build off shore windmills according to our global need, we would at the same time automatically, more than substitute and support the loss of our global reefs. Although the foundations of off shore windmills are artificial, they will provide home for the mentioned symbiotic species! THIS moment of time gives us all the possibility to be part of the solution, in everything we DO and project. Its going to be a leap not an hindrance! If all off shore windmill are placed at farms, below the horizon, seen from the shore, where birdlife are extremely sparse and those that do roam are spices that generally understands to avoid windmills, we will at the same time free vast amount of land and hopefully stop the rising waters, from eating of our live-able land masses. With no red tape and sufficient backing, an off shore windmill park can deliver full output from water freed for it, in 3-5 years. Electricity will be instant joining global grid, the underwater life will begin to contribute to an markable degree after 3 years and transform our oceanic life in 10, and even more later. Look into it and become an active part of a brighter future. I see no area, car/truck/ship/airplane engines or hyperloop (you name it!) where hydrogen cant replace AND eventually deliver a better overall conceptual solution. There are a Klondyke of opportunities! Not looking them up and exploiting them aggressively. are missing an option that will prevail. in a short time, anyway. We cant wait for a slow progression, we need a instant political, privat enterprise, global response to our REAL needs now! It makes no sense we use and pursue our energy needs coverage, by burning fossile fuels, when we can harvest the earths natural weather, to easily meet our needs in a green sustainable way! Investment-wise, we even can reuse foundation and grid-connections, when the windmills inner engine mechanically are getting old and needs replacement, thus we can later upgrade to new technologically more advanced engines and gearboxes, as an even more profitable investment. At first these basic requirements are a necessity for establishing the off shore windmill -parks. I would imagine that whatever capacity new energy transfer connections have they eventually will be supplied to their final safe capacity. Where I live. we now have enough hydrogen filling stations. for the persistent to cover its national needs. More are to come. The market today can deliver a wide range of hydrogen fuel cells cars, but the real game changer are coming from Toyota, that have presented a long endurance, direct injection hydrogen based car engine in a resent released presentation of a such racecar. They demonstrate its abilities by letting it participate in an Japanese long endurance race. It seems the Japanese have managed to overcome the holy grail regarding hydrogen car engines. A fast responsive, equal and better, rival to the gasline/diesel powered engine, that at the same time only emits, water! Not only that, they claim the engine actually overall REMOVES, a tiny amount of CO2, when running. Current infrastructure, gasstations, could relatively easy transform, and/or add hydrogen as an option in their business. I dont want to SPEND our taxmoney fixing our ever increasing costs related to a dramatic shifting climate; draughts, floods, hurricanes, climate refugees, I wanna INVEST in a transformation of our society so that all energy are made from sustainable sources, preferably windmills and that all devices used by modern man runs on green sustainable electricity or green hydrogen. Introducing a car with a huge fossile fueled engine in 2021 are as idiotic as can be. Had it at least had an old design and a spanking new hydrogen engine....but old design and a engine that kills us and the planet we live on... We have run out of time! Realise that if you are not part of the solution NOW, you ARE part of the problem.

Absolutely subtly elegant. The newer taillights on the Standard S-Class lost all it's classic beauty by making them look like a Toyota ! This is a Masterpiece!
12:18 "to slown down" you are funny :D I would tell him to speed up! I like the review btw, very detailed and calm! I hope you'll be able to record in 4K at some point, that will really help with the video quality.
Nice car. It was 1998 when I first heard the name "Maybach" used on a car as opposed to an aircraft engine when I was hired to manage the production of a industrial documentary on the first-gen mini-limousine, the Model 57. The German production company shipped a pre-production vehicle to Miami, Florida in order to shoot film against our gorgeous water views and puffy cumulus clouds. That damned car refused to work as planned. The entire trunk was taken up with a bunch of computers, terminals, test equipment and tools. It drive beautifully--when it started. We had to tow it using a low-boy trailer in several shots. We got to shut down the Rickenbacker Causeway in order to accomplish the aerial shots using a helicopter, and then using the police to escort that beast to make a U-turn. There was a complete platoon of technicians sent from Germany that were in charge of every detail: the leather guys, the wood paneling guys, the paint and exterior guys, the lighting guys, the engine guys, the electronics guys. There were almost as many guys who were sent to make that car work as there were people on the film crew. Fortunately, all of the footage that was shot was MOS--silent footage, no sound. I'm sure that the audio tracks would have been ruined by shouted expletives whenever some part would fail. Loved the way the light controls for the the roof, the champagne cooler and the footrests worked. It took another year for them to work out the kinks in this car.
All I needed to know was that it had an antiquated fossile fueled engine and I was off the hook.

@@IsaacIKE We need to produce all global energy needed to fit our needs in a sustainable way. That means using preferably off shore windmills. and hydrogen produced from those. as our flexible potent green fuel that can replace anything we today burn fossile fuels to do. Anyone introducing a fossile fueled car in 2021 demonstrates they are part of the problem, not the solution.
@@Mike-ox8sq Quite frankly I take it your on the left side if the spectrum. Now I don't completely disagree here but if I were working for your case I would keep the explanation short and sweet. Have a nice day.
@@IsaacIKE Many thinks we live in a 1-3 line world, they need to grow up. WE have a problem, WE need to ACT to solve it, NOW! You have a nice day as well.
My favourite feature of this car is the window between your space and the chauffeur. Also, to all people complaining about him wearing two watches at the same time - the more Audemars Piguets you have the better!
I wouldn't trust having prostitutes in this car without a proper curtain blocking that fancy smartglass window. What happens when the software gets glitchy ( which it will ) or suddenly stops working ? Then what ? You're done, that's what.
@@spicybritishman857$72,000? That’s a STEAL! a new Cadillac Escalade goes for $120,000! I think maybe you meant the actual price of $173,995. I’d like to point out though, that as nice as this car is, it’s paint is absolutely AWFUL! It has more orange peel than an early 2000’s GM car.
There's a guy who is a chauffeur and lives on the next street from me, and he's got a Mercedes Pullman. But the point of me saying this is because he lives in an apartment called Pullman Court and parks his car right under the sign that says the apartments name.
