Maybach axed, last models slated for 2013 - report

After months of speculation, Daimler has reportedly decided to phase out
Maybach.

Citing high-ranking sources, Autocar is reporting Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche
will axe the brand in order to focus more attention on Mercedes. As one
insider commented, "We've come to the conclusion that it is better to cut our
losses with Maybach than to continue into an uncertain future with a brand
that has failed to live up to original sales expectations."

If everything pans out, the last Maybachs will be built in early 2013. To
fill the gap, Mercedes will reportedly offer a new S600 Pullman.

簡單翻譯一下

大致上就是說Maybach的銷售量不符合原廠的預期
經過幾個月的討論之後
原廠"有可能"在2013年初結束Maybach品牌
專心的將大部分的資源投注在Mercedes-Benz上面


個人認為像這種超豪華品牌要生存下去
多半還是要靠像是Bentley Continental或是RR Ghost這種級距的車型來衝銷售量
像Maybach 57/62的價位實在是太高了
加上又是用老舊的W220底盤
內裝很多部分都有W220的影子
另外品牌知名度也不如RR
才會落到今天這種下場

可惜了~
