Mercedes-Benz's latest concept car takes its design cues from art deco

Описание: This concept car from Mercedes-Benz pairs future technology with elements of the past, featuring a design inspired by art deco.

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.

The two-seater car is primarily designed as an electric model, and is powered by four battery-operated motors that offer over 500 kilometres of driving distance.

However, through its design, the company was keen to reflect the luxurious look of classic cars – taking cues from the art deco period for the shell, and creating a "haute couture" interior decked out in high-quality materials.

"The Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Cabriolet is a car which, with its sensual, emotionally appealing design and innovative technical concept solutions, defines the ultimate in luxury of the future," said Mercedes-Benz. "At the same time, the two-seater model pays homage to the glorious automotive haute couture of hand-finished, exclusive cabriolets."

"The glamorous cabriolet reinterprets classic, emotional design principles in an extravagant way and combines intelligent beauty with classic, aesthetic proportions and a reduced, 'technoid' appearance."
