The GLS 600 gets only one engine option, and no, it’s not a V12 despite what the badge might suggest. Under the hood sits a well known mild-hybrid setup with a 4-liter twin-turbo V8, producing 550 HP, and 538 lb-ft of torque which was pared to a 9-speed conventional automatic, transferring the power to all four wheels.
The Maybach GLS competes with cars such as a Bentley Bentayga, Roll Royce Cullinan, or a Range Rover Autobiography.
