The 2026 Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series Tubli & Salmabad | Al Haddad Motors reimagines the roadster as a luxury performance statement, designed for those who see driving as an art form. Arriving soon in Bahrain, this limited edition open-top Maybach blends handcrafted excellence with expressive styling — and zero compromise on power.
Design & Customisation
Offered in two distinct visual identities — Red Ambience (MANUFAKTUR garnet red metallic) and White Ambience (MANUFAKTUR opalite white magno) — the SL 680 Monogram is a visual knockout.
Design highlights include:
Illuminated Maybach grille with engraved lettering
Contrasting bonnet with Maybach monogram pattern and a chrome standing star
21-inch five-hole forged wheels
Rose gold detailing in the headlamps
Black Maybach-pattern soft top
New Maybach-specific bumpers and diffusers
Inside, you’re greeted by full Nappa leather with custom Maybach stitching, ambient lighting, and beltlines detailed with the monogram pattern. The twin-screen cockpit includes a 12.3-inch digital cluster and 11.9-inch centre display, combining heritage with high-tech.
Powertrain Performance
The SL 680 Monogram Series is powered by a hand-built 4.0L V8 biturbo engine producing 577 hp and 800 Nm of torque. It accelerates from 0–100 km/h in approximately 4.1 seconds, delivered through 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive and a 9-speed automatic transmission.
Despite the power, it’s refined. The exhaust and drivetrain are tuned for comfort — not drama — and the ride remains composed thanks to rear-axle steering and adaptive suspension.
Ride & Handling
The chassis, shared with the standard SL but elevated with Maybach geometry and dampers, delivers balance. Rear-axle steering improves agility in tight turns while retaining long-distance cruising comfort.
This isn’t an AMG bruiser — it’s a composed cruiser meant for coastal drives and grand arrivals.
Comfort & Exclusivity
From the rose-gold trims to the monogram-pattered backrests, this Maybach is about detail. Everything is crafted for the occupants, including:
Heated and ventilated full-leather seats
Advanced climate and AirScarf neck warmers
Bespoke materials and hand-finished trim
The two-seat layout makes a bold design statement, prioritising luxury and personal space over practicality.
Practicality & Efficiency
Performance and presence come at a cost:
Fuel consumption: ~13.6 L/100 km
CO₂ emissions: ~309 g/km
Boot space: Minimal
Price: Estimated at over 220,000BHD
This isn’t a daily driver — and that’s entirely the point.
