Project Maybach is nearly six metres long, most of that length coming from its transparent front bonnet with solar cells underneath it which charges the car’s batteries. The sloped and transparent roofline merges seamlessly into the rear end evoking the look of a spaceship. It is a two-seater and is designed for off-road adventuring.
The interior of the car is almost entirely in tan leather, matching the exterior. The vibe of the automobile is minimalistic, but it still found room for a cinematic infotainment screen tucked in the centre of the dashboard.
