The “Pullman” model will be the crowning glory of the class and is set to replace the Maybach brand.
It will feature distinctive design touches that include a unique grille that will enhance the appearance of the vehicle when compared to typical S-Class models.
Zetsche said Mercedes-Benz aims to maintain its presence in the high-end market segment, where it already started a tradition. The company also expects to lead this segment in the luxury car market with the Pullman being a part of its future plans.
A number of select markets will see the release of three wheelbases for the new S-Class, which is set to enter the UK market by October. The wheelbases include the standard, long and extra-long wheelbase. The extra-long wheelbase is aimed at meeting the demand for elegant limousines in a number of vital markets around the world.
The Mercedes-Benz S-Class Pullman is expected to be launched in May 2014.
