\nIf a recent report out of the UK is to be believed, Maybach<\/a> is set to get the axe in the very near future. However, as a last hurrah, all three models from the ultra-luxury division of Mercedes-Benz<\/a> (57<\/a>, 62<\/a> and Landaulet<\/a>) will receive facelifts this year. The last round of top-zoot Maybachs will debut in late April at the Beijing Motor Show<\/a>. Expect the changes to the lineup to be very minor – new grilles and LED lights should be about the only differences from the sedans currently on sale.<\/p>\n

So, why kill off Maybach? Ever since the brand was resurrected in 2002, it has suffered from very slow sales. Not surprising, considering the high price tags, comparatively low content levels and the hard financial times the world has fallen on in recent years. Furthermore, parent company Mercedes-Benz has big plans to expand the S-Class<\/a> range, which includes adding more upmarket versions which should fill the void of Maybach’s current offerings. Look for the new S-Class to arrive in 2014, along with a fully updated version of the R-Class<\/a> people-mover, as well.<\/p>\n
