Is the small rear window glass of the Maybach integrated with the door?

Maybach's small rear window glass is not integrated with the door; the small triangular window is separate from the door. Taking the Maybach S-Class as an example, here are the specific details of the Maybach S-Class: 1. Powertrain: The S580 is equipped with a 4.0L V8 engine + 48V mild hybrid system, with a maximum power output of 370kW (503PS), while the S680 features a 6.0L twin-turbocharged V12 engine, delivering a maximum power of 450kW (612PS). 2. Suspension: The Maybach S-Class comes standard with an AIRMATIC air suspension system with continuously adjustable damping ADS+, and also offers the optional active E-ACTIVE-BODY-CONTROL suspension system.
As a long-time Maybach owner, that small rear quarter window is indeed not part of the door. In my ownership experience, the triangular quarter glass is fixed to the body structure, typically near the C-pillar area; it remains completely stationary when the door opens/closes, while the door windows operate independently. This design creates smoother body lines, leaving almost no gaps when closed to reduce wind noise and rattles. It's particularly hassle-free in daily driving - the cabin stays much quieter at highway speeds, and the small window is easier to clean during car washes without dirt traps. Last week when giving friends a ride, one specifically complimented how this detail elevates the premium feel. From a maintenance perspective, being body-mounted enhances structural rigidity and potentially improves crash safety. In summary, based on hands-on experience, this isn't a door component but a permanent body element that elevates the overall luxury quotient.
