Mercedes-Benz S 600 Guard Pullman: Mercedes-Benz builds new Pullman State Limousine



Mercedes-Benz engineers are currently developing a new, prestigious luxury limousine with integrated highest protection for governments, businesses, monarchs and heads of state. The armoured Pullman Limousine is based on the long version of the S 600 with a substantially extended wheelbase length. The Mercedes-Benz State Limousine therefore provides a level of roominess worthy of its high-ranking occupants, not to mention outstanding comfort and a fully equipped mobile office. The S 600 Guard Pullman sees the world's oldest car manufacturer continuing its long tradition of building large state carriages with factory-integrated special-protection features.

Can't wait to see the images. The W220 series was really nice. Prestigious...

But of course the first place to spot these cars are in Africa for the heads of state, while the poor get poorer and just watch them pass by in their $100K's cars... And of course when they retire that S600 they had in office suddenly leaves the office of the president/minister too...

Okay, sorry for the rambling and politics, just memories. Anyway, can't wait to see the pics.

It'll never be as good as the original 600 Pullman.

N/A
Just out of curiosity, isn't it going to create marketing collision between Pullman and Maybach?

Also, I should've study history of Mercedes-Benz before I ask following question. Anyway, what is the difference between classic Maybach and Pullman 600? My best guess is era.

Well, the new S has kinda Maybach butt, and was supposed to have some design cues from the Maybach. So it's not really that big of a stretch.

The S-Guard is really nice, even in Pullman version. Although I'd prefer to own the normal body length S-Guard.

BTW: The mansion in the background is awesome.
