World of Design: Mercedes-Benz Draws Inspiration from Yachting & Art Deco Design

You’ve never seen a Mercedes-Benz quite like this. The Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Cabriolet, unveiled at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in California, is designed to offer a glimpse of what the German auto brand's luxury models could one day look like.

A "haute couture" interior is decked out in high-quality materials such as ivory leather and rose gold threads in the upholstery. The outside? Streamlined with aerodynamic lines inspired by the world’s most luxurious yachts and Art Deco influences.

The open-top Maybach boasts an extremely long bonnet, which opens to reveal a fully stocked dinner service and space for custom luggage.

We love this daring design concept with its sweeping, sleek silhouette. Did we mention it’s electric?
