Dubai is one of those cities where the car you drive isn’t just about getting from A to B. It’s part of your whole look, your energy, your entrance. Sure, you could call a taxi or grab a regular SUV, but why would you, when the streets are basically made for rolling around in something special?
That’s where the Mercedes‑Benz Maybach GLS 600 comes in. Think of it as a first‑class lounge that just happens to have wheels and a twin‑turbo V8 under the hood. This thing doesn’t try to scream for attention, yet somehow everyone notices it.
You slide into the GLS 600 and the city noise melts away. The air feels cooler, the leather feels softer, and there’s this faint scent of new car mixed with something expensive you can’t quite place.
The cabin’s huge. And not just “roomy SUV” huge, it’s stretch‑your‑legs‑while‑reclining huge. Everything is wrapped in Nappa leather so smooth it almost feels like silk. The stitching is perfect. The wood trim has this deep, glossy finish that catches light in a really subtle way, and the metal accents feel cold and solid, not like the plastic imitations in cheaper cars.
The real flex, though, is in the back seats. They’re more like private pods than seats, full recline, leg rests that pop out like an airline’s first‑class suite, ventilation to keep you cool, heating if you’re feeling cozy, and a massage function that can go from gentle relaxation to “I think my shoulders just got sorted out.”
Between the two rear seats is a proper fixed console, not a cup holder with ambitions, but a legit setup with fold‑out tables for your laptop, wireless phone charging, and a chilled compartment for whatever drink you want to keep close.
This is the kind of car where, if you’re a passenger, you might not even want to arrive.
The GLS 600 doesn’t shout. It doesn’t need to. One glance at that massive chrome Maybach grille and you know this isn’t your average Mercedes. Add in the two‑tone paint option, deep gloss black over a champagne gold, or maybe a midnight blue over silver, and it’s pure presence.
The 22‑ or 23‑inch Maybach wheels have this intricate multi‑spoke design that looks classy but still says “this is a serious machine.” The proportions are spot‑on: tall enough to look authoritative, long enough to look elegant.
Driving through Downtown Dubai, you’ll notice people glance up from their phones when you pass. Pull up outside Atlantis The Royal, and the valet won’t just take your keys, he’ll take a moment to admire the car first.
Here’s where it gets interesting. The Maybach GLS 600 runs on a 4.0‑liter twin‑turbocharged V8. That’s 550 horsepower and 730 Nm of torque, enough to push this big, luxury lounge from 0 to 100 km/h in about 4.9 seconds.
You’re not going to be drag‑racing Lambos down Sheikh Zayed Road in this, but if you want to surge past traffic, the power’s there instantly. The EQ Boost mild‑hybrid system smooths out acceleration and adds a little extra kick when you floor it.
The nine‑speed automatic transmission is seamless. You can’t feel it shift, you just feel the speed building. And the E‑Active Body Control suspension? That’s where the magic is. Cameras scan the road ahead and adjust each wheel individually, so the car stays level no matter what’s under it. Speed bumps in Jumeirah? Gone. Long desert stretches? Feels like glass.
The Maybach GLS 600 has a way of making arrivals feel cinematic. Whether you’re pulling up to a black‑tie gala at The Opera District, stepping out at a beach club on Palm Jumeirah, or heading into a private dinner at Zuma, this SUV makes sure you look the part.
The height means you step out at a perfect, confident level. The soft‑close doors open wide, revealing that plush cabin, and the whole thing just feels like an entrance that was meant to be photographed.
Mercedes didn’t just load this thing with tech, they made it seamless. Up front, you’ve got twin 12.3‑inch displays running the latest MBUX system. You can control it with touch, voice (“Hey Mercedes…” actually works well), or hand gestures. Navigation is crystal‑clear, and the augmented‑reality directions overlay actual arrows onto the street view so you never miss a turn.
In the back, you’ve got your own entertainment screens, wireless headphones, and full climate control. The Burmester High‑End 3D sound system is unreal, 27 speakers tuned so perfectly you could close your eyes and think you’re at a live performance.
And the driver assistance features? Adaptive cruise, lane‑keeping assist, active parking assist, 360‑degree cameras. You could parallel park this thing in DIFC with one hand if you really wanted to.
Dubai days are like a curated itinerary of extremes. Breakfast at Bulgari Resort. A quick meeting in DIFC. An afternoon escape to the desert at Al Maha. Dinner overlooking the fountains at Burj Khalifa. The Maybach GLS 600 is built for that kind of life.
It’s elegant enough for the most formal boardroom arrival, but it’s still a capable SUV if you feel like heading off the main road toward a luxury desert resort. It transitions between worlds effortlessly, just like Dubai itself.
If you’re here for corporate work or high‑level meetings, this SUV is more than just transport. It’s a statement. Showing up in a Maybach GLS 600 says you value precision, comfort, and presentation, and those things matter before you even start talking business.
You can literally turn the rear into a rolling office. Open the table, set your laptop down, and connect to Wi‑Fi. Make calls in a whisper‑quiet cabin. Review presentations without distractions.
Privacy is one of the most underrated luxuries. In the GLS 600, the sound insulation is so good that you can have confidential conversations without worrying about road noise or outside interruptions. Even at highway speeds, you can take an important call without raising your voice.
Drop a client at their hotel in this SUV and they’ll remember it. That’s not vanity, it’s psychology. People remember how you made them feel, and arriving in a Maybach feels like being treated with real care and respect.
In Dubai, you’ll see Maybach GLS 600s rolling out of VIP terminals, lined up outside luxury hotels, or discreetly parked at the back entrance of major events. It’s trusted by royal families, used by A‑list celebrities, and favored by CEOs who value a mix of comfort, security, and quiet power.
If you’re a content creator, this SUV is a goldmine. The interior lighting is perfect for filming. The stitching and details pop in close‑ups. The two‑tone paint catches light beautifully during golden hour. Whether you’re making a luxury lifestyle reel or doing a professional photo shoot, the Maybach elevates everything in frame.
Imagine this. You wake up at your suite at Atlantis The Royal. You walk downstairs, and the valet brings the Maybach around. The chrome grille catches the morning sun. You slide in, recline the seat, and start your day.
First stop: DIFC for a breakfast meeting. The drive down Sheikh Zayed Road is smooth and quiet, giving you time to check emails. After the meeting, you swing by Bulgari Resort for a coffee, valet takes the keys like they’re handling crown jewels.
In the afternoon, you decide to head to the desert. The Maybach takes the open highway stretch effortlessly, the Burmester system playing your playlist like a private concert. You get to Al Maha, step out refreshed, spend a couple of hours, then cruise back into the city.
Evening hits. You change for dinner, then glide down to Downtown Dubai. You roll past the lit‑up skyline, soft cabin lighting matching the city glow. You pull up to the restaurant entrance. The door opens, the cool night air hits, and for a second you realize, the car has been part of the magic all day.
The Mercedes‑Benz Maybach GLS 600 isn’t just a luxury SUV. It’s a complete experience, comfort, presence, technology, and performance all wrapped into one. In Dubai, it fits like it was made for the city.
Whether you’re here to impress, to work, or just to indulge, renting one lets you move through Dubai with a level of ease and style that’s hard to match. It’s not just about driving. It’s about arriving. Every time.
