The Tallest and Funniest Thing About the Maybach's Launch

As we watched the Maybach launch off the line, it was clear that this car was built for comfort. Despite its impressive acceleration, there wasn't a sudden "sudden throwing back" in the seats as would be expected from a high-performance vehicle like the BMW and Mercedes-Maybach 600. Instead, the car seemed to glide away with ease, almost as if it were floating down the track.

The contrast between the two cars was striking. The BMW, which took just 12.9 seconds to cover the quarter-mile distance, was clearly built for speed. In contrast, the Maybach took a full 13.6 seconds to do the same. Despite its slower acceleration, however, the Maybach seemed to make up for it with its incredible smoothness and composure.

As we watched, the car accelerated from 50 miles per hour in just 3.2 seconds, leaving us wondering how such a massive vehicle could accelerate so quickly. The force of acceleration was also impressive, but not quite as dramatic as we might have expected. Still, it was clear that this car was built for speed and comfort.

The Maybach's gearbox seemed to be slow to engage at times, particularly when shifting up from second or third gear. However, once engaged, the gearbox seemed to work seamlessly, providing a smooth and silky transition between gears. This was especially noticeable during our rolling race, where the Maybach took an early lead despite being in comfort mode.

As we continued to watch, it became clear that this car was built for more than just speed. The acceleration from 120 miles per hour was surprisingly sedate, almost as if the car were gliding along rather than actually moving at high speed. This was a testament to the Maybach's incredible smoothness and composure.

In the end, we had one final challenge to test the Maybach's stopping power. We took it up to 70 miles per hour before slamming on the brakes in an emergency stop. To our surprise, the car slowed down remarkably quickly, covering nearly half a car length in distance. This was a full car length shorter than the BMW, and we couldn't help but feel impressed by the Maybach's braking performance.

Despite its impressive acceleration and smoothness, however, there were some surprises along the way. The gearbox seemed to have some issues with shifting down gears quickly, particularly when changing from first to second gear. However, once it got going, the gearbox worked seamlessly, providing a smooth and silky transition between gears.

As we watched the Maybach drive away, we couldn't help but feel impressed by its performance. From its incredible acceleration to its sedate braking, this car seemed to have everything we could want in a high-performance vehicle. And despite some minor issues with the gearbox, it still managed to hold its own against the competition.

The Tallest and Funniest Thing About the Launch

In the end, the Maybach's performance was so impressive that it left us wondering what exactly happened during the launch. Despite the initial acceleration, there wasn't a sudden "sudden throwing back" in the seats as would be expected from a high-performance vehicle like the BMW and Mercedes-Maybach 600.

It seemed almost as if the car had somehow managed to accelerate away without any assistance from its driver or passengers. This was all the more surprising given that we were trying to rob the car of its dignity by asking our passengers to stop laughing and having fun in their seats.

In reality, however, it's unlikely that the Maybach would have been able to maintain such incredible acceleration for long. After all, even with a powerful engine like this one, there are limits to how fast a car can go before it becomes unstable or even breaks down.

Still, we couldn't help but be impressed by the Maybach's performance, even if it didn't quite match that of the more powerful competitors. And as we watched the car drive away, we couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to see it in action.

The BMW and Mercedes-Maybach 600 Rolling Race

As we prepared to conduct our rolling race, we couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive about what might happen. Would the Maybach be able to maintain its lead, or would one of its competitors eventually catch up? We watched with bated breath as the two cars took off down the track, each trying to gain an advantage over the other.

The BMW was quick out of the gate, taking just 12.9 seconds to cover the quarter-mile distance. But despite its impressive acceleration, it didn't quite have the same smoothness and composure as the Maybach. The car seemed to struggle a little more, particularly when shifting gears.

In contrast, the Maybach took a full 13.6 seconds to do the same, but it still managed to glide away with ease. We were impressed by its ability to accelerate smoothly and quickly, even if it didn't quite match the raw speed of the BMW.

As we continued to watch, we noticed that the car's acceleration seemed almost... silky? It was as if the Maybach had somehow managed to smooth out its engine and transmission, providing a seamless transition between gears. This was especially noticeable during our rolling race, where the Maybach took an early lead despite being in comfort mode.

The Force of Acceleration

As we watched the Maybach accelerate from 50 miles per hour, we were struck by just how impressive its force of acceleration was. The car seemed to move with incredible speed and power, covering nearly 200 feet in just a few seconds. This was all the more surprising given that we were watching a car this massive and heavy.

At first glance, it might seem like the Maybach should be slower than other cars due to its size and weight. However, it's clear that the engineers at Mercedes-Benz have managed to create a car that is both powerful and efficient. The force of acceleration was impressive, but not quite as dramatic as we might have expected.

The smoothness and composure of the Maybach were also worth noting. Despite its incredible power, the car seemed to glide along rather than actually moving at high speed. This was especially noticeable during our rolling race, where the car took an early lead despite being in comfort mode.

A Sedate Braking Performance

In contrast to its incredible acceleration, however, the Maybach's braking performance was somewhat more sedate. We took it up to 70 miles per hour before slamming on the brakes in an emergency stop, and to our surprise, the car slowed down remarkably quickly.

Covering nearly half a car length in distance, this was a full car length shorter than the BMW, and we couldn't help but feel impressed by the Maybach's braking performance. Despite its incredible acceleration, it seemed that the Maybach had also managed to create a car that could stop on a dime.

Conclusion

In the end, our experience with the Maybach was nothing short of impressive. From its incredible acceleration to its sedate braking, this car seemed to have everything we could want in a high-performance vehicle. And despite some minor issues with the gearbox, it still managed to hold its own against the competition.

As we watched the Maybach drive away, we couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to see it in action. Whether you're looking for speed, comfort, or a combination of both, this car is sure to impress.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: eneveryone man what's on here from Carlo so I've got an unusual drug Gracie today I'm sat in a Maybach next to me is a bit him w 760li and yeah we gonna race him because that's what these cars are for obviously so this has a 5.5 litre twin-turbo v12 with 551 horsepower 900 Newton metres of torque it drives the rear wheels only via five-speed automatic gearbox this thing is set up for comfort that has a six-litre twin-turbo v12 with 545 horsepower service Meech down on power despite having slightly more displacement it has 750 Newton meters of torque that's got an 8-speed automatic gearbox which drives the rear wheels only so this car is from 2005 and back in the day the list price would have been around 320 thousand pounds but with the options on it this particular one I have here cost almost half a million pounds there today you could probably get it for 80,000 pounds that BMW is a 2013 car but when it initially came out I think was 2007 they cost about 120 thousand pounds you get that one now for 35,000 pounds they're both quite heavy cars it could be interesting to see how they perform especially in the braking test this is 2,800 kilos that's about 2200 kilos so quite a difference in it but then there's a difference in the luxury this is on the levels of a rolls-royce that is still just a BMW now before we go any further please make sure you subscribe this channel and hit the bell icon to turn in notifications on so you're loaded when we make a new upload these cars have actually been loaned to me by viewers so this is a bunch out cord Nick sings to Jota you can follow me on instagram at Nick sings - Jota in fact if you look he's number plates guys so name on it and I hope you like my Kunda I think it's called hopefully I'll bring me luck against that BMW make sure you're following me on Instagram as well at Matt watson cars and till like the t-shirt drag queen now if you want some of this merch then just look in the carousel below or just click on the pop out banner up there you can go to a shop to buy some of this stuff we'll just check it out alright enough of that so yeah with a drug racy what happens now before we race that's just I'm listen to these cars v12 engines obviously they're luxury cars rather than performance cars so there might be a bit muted but let's give it a go this is us doing of those not be a standstill yes we're up to 3000 rpm clearly that is so that you don't annoy the client in the back seats that's what the BMWs like a librarian W can you let me hear your engine please that sounds a bit more like it doesn't it I don't really need to ask this question but let me know anyway in the comments below which do you think sounds the best okay it shouldn't be that which one is the quietest that's how it's about with these cars this one than in it another thing that we like to do before we drag race is warm up the tires the conduct in that the guys body offers proof I'm not sure his brother even knows that his boy down here but he's bought it from his brother he doesn't want us to rag his tires but Nick who owns this says that I can try and slide this won't go but the stability is off I'm gonna give it a shot see if it will do something this could be very very embarrassing and we don't fall off the track let's go the other way oh yeah oh this is obviously a very bad thing to do you don't get taught that at Show for school I think the tires are warm poor tires I mean to deal with all that wait until going through them anyway it's getting with the race modern performance Mercedes models come with g-force meters maybe I can use the Condor to show exactly how many G's I'm pulling let's find out smoke them off the line come on no boys Mike under rocking this is not a good sign so smooth I think a beam off the line but that's just because of my reactions how is that for you BMW feeling pretty bloomin smug well because this one had warm tires it's Paul expired Ione neatly entirely off the line got good launch but then you came past I think with this is that the extra way is about half a ton difference just kind of took its toll in the end because it has more torque has a bit more power so you think it'd be quicker I don't think the fact that my gearbox only has five gears helps much either really does it because they're obviously going to be taller the funniest thing about this though under the launch even though it really did cats ball off the line there wasn't a sudden throwing back in the seats it's it's like you could accelerate and get away from the light or crook so trying to rob you without their dignitary in the backs spilling their champagne all over themselves I think Mercedes must have engineered that into this car so then what exactly happened well the BMW did the Stanley quarter-mile in twelve point nine seconds and the Maybach took thirteen point six seconds now we're gonna have a rolling race or the cars in comfort mode which is the natural habitat for this car chillin okay three two one go kick down all that smooth I look at this I'm ahead can I bring you 200 can I come the end of his gone this actually picked up so well and so smoothly it seems quite handy having this because you can see exactly the effects of the force of acceleration and braking on this car what happened to your gearbox is it slow to keep down for anything about this I was all good until I think I went into second or third and then when I shifted up into fourth or maybe it was even fit that was it that was me done then and you came past it was about 80 between 80 and 90 that you can pass so not bad showing this would have one in the real world in the UK in Germany year to come pass on the Autobahn but everywhere else maybe that would have one I'm gonna give this one to the Maybach cuz I can now get a rolling raise from 50 miles an hour but the cars are in sports mode and they're locked in gear so I'm in 3rd gear here 3 2 1 go come on plenty of torque is the redline changeup oh it's a lazy change he was more on it than his gearbox kicked down problems this is interesting in about 120 miles an hour in this thing it's really quite sedate I'm gonna break oh I'm 3p camera peeps do please stay up nice and viagra this look at it Lou oh that's not gonna please anyone final challenge then break test from 70 miles an hour where he hit the line full emergency stop which car will stop in the shortest distance hopefully my camera won't trip and the force of braking you be able to see the force of braking from this as well so here we go I don't think this is going to do very well though I do have two calipers in the front wheel well I think the couldn't have said it all really didn't it it didn't do as bad as I thought it might in this short boy was like almost non-existent which was worrying but I think that's to prevent your passenger in the back from suddenly being flung forward if you have to make emergency maneuver but then it really did dig in and did better than I thought it would do initially being Tony is definitely one by one looks like a half car length so that is half a Maybach so it's probably a full car length normal car so I am doubly pretty much want everything apart from the in gear rolling race which I had to give to this because it just impressed me so much with how smoothly changed down a gear when he was in comfort mode now I hope you enjoyed this yeah as much as I did I've never driven one of these cars before so I was a real pleasure and it's a really nice Drive actually

want some it says drag queen on your chest you might not this some of the logos and stuff like ID slogans if you would look through all the much we've got available ok anyway I really enjoyed this hope you did too and I'll see you next time this is how it stick they the camera onto the steering column so that you can see the dolls when we like doing stuff annoyingly with this Maybach can you see the steering column doesn't extend to farm the steel wheel toast if I put on there you get a camera moving like that and that will make you feel a bit seasick so I've got to put it there but there's not much room and cause it's hot this sticky stuff it's got a bit runny and it's drooping you probably don't need to know any of that and I bet the editor cut it out but sometimes it's good to see behind the scenes and what happens you know how hard my life is to make all this come together for meeveryone man what's on here from Carlo so I've got an unusual drug Gracie today I'm sat in a
