The abundance of breathtaking automobile restoration and masterful design on display at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance this year was astounding. I was nearly knocked over by the Vision Mercedes-Mayback 6, a slash of deep ruby red parked on the famed concept lawn where the future seems to be on display. In the words of Mercedes-Benz “the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6, a concept sensational luxury-class 2 plus 2 coupe pays homage to the glorious age of the aero coupes and consciously carries this tradition forward into the future. The coupe reinterprets classic, emotional design principles in an extreme way, following the Mercedes design philosophy of sensual purity.” The Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 is large side, measuring an aggressive 18-feet long. This electric car it will go from 0-62 mph in less than four seconds and the battery the range will be just over 200 miles according to the EPA.
