Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz announced earlier that it would be discontinuing its Maybach super-luxury line. That is now official, following the launch of its price list for 2013.

Vehicles not selling
There is not a ton of speculation as to why Daimler AG has decided to let the line go. Sales have been more than slow for all three Maybach models. Price tags for the automobiles range from $376,300 all the way up to a staggering $1,380,000. The peak of its United States sales was in 2004, when the company sold just 244 sedans. The automaker only moved 99 of them in the United States final year, even while offering an unheard of $100,000 rebate.
A steep discount for your models
If you always wanted one, you had better get a Maybach right now. All the 2012 models are getting sold at big discounts to be able to get rid of them as fast as possible.
Enormous luxury lines starting in 1990s
In the 1990s, all three major German car makers decided to create super-luxury lines, using respected names from the past. Volkswagen revived the Bentley, BMW acquired Rolls-Royce, and Mercedes took on the even more-distant Maybach line. However, the limo-like super-luxury sedans never took off for any car maker in a way that was hoped for.

Maybach models
You can get a 5.5 liter V12 in the Maybach line with 543 horsepower if you opt for the Maybach Type 57 or the Maybach Type 62. Both vehicles come with this engine. The Maybach Landulet gets 620 horsepower though with its 6.0 liter V12. All of these automobiles will be gone soon.
Pullman rises again
The 600S Pullman is another car from the past that Daimler is going to be adding to the line though, according to AOL Autos. It will join the S series in order to compete with Rolls-Royce and Bentley. Daimler will not stop providing the courtesy of new cars to consumers. All types of engines are supposedly going to be available with the new Pullman.
In 1963, the Mercedes-Benz 600 was launched as luxury vehicles. There was the Pullman, which was a long wheel-based version of that model.
