I’m looking to buy my first Mercedes and I live the Maybach and found one from 2017 with low miles. What’s the average maintenance cost? I was also looking at the e class and seen a few used ones for mid 30’s. What’s the maintenance cost and how long will the battery last? Thanks.

Probably best to avoid buying a Maybach if you're asking the question of maintenance costs.

When considering a 2017 Mercedes-Maybach, keep in mind that maintenance costs can be quite high. On average, expect to spend around $1,200 to $1,500 annually for routine maintenance, but this can increase significantly with unexpected repairs, especially as the car ages. The E-Class is generally more affordable in terms of maintenance, with annual costs ranging from $800 to $1,200. As for the battery, both models should last between 4 to 6 years, depending on usage and climate, though it’s wise to budget for a replacement every 4 years. Make sure to get a pre-purchase inspection to avoid any surprises.
