Is the Small Window on the Door a Maybach?
2 Answers
Maybach's door and small triangular window are separate; the small triangular window of a Maybach is fixed on the C-pillar. The currently available model under Maybach is the Maybach S-Class. The Maybach S-Class is equipped with three types of car engines: a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, a 4.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a 6.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 3.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers 367 horsepower and a maximum torque of 500 Nm. This engine can output maximum power at 5500 to 6000 rpm and maximum torque at 1800 to 4500 rpm. The 4.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers 469 horsepower and a maximum torque of 700 Nm. This engine can output maximum power at 5250 to 5500 rpm and maximum torque at 2000 to 4000 rpm. The 6.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers 630 horsepower and a maximum torque of 1000 Nm. This engine can output maximum power at 4800 rpm and maximum torque at 2300 to 4200 rpm. The Maybach S-Class uses a double-wishbone independent suspension for both the front and rear suspension systems. Using double-wishbone suspension systems for both front and rear enhances the vehicle's safety performance and ride comfort. The double-wishbone suspension system is a relatively complex type of independent suspension.
I once rode in a Maybach, and indeed there was a small window on the door, typically located on the rear door near the C-pillar—a fixed triangular window that made the whole car look more luxurious. This design is quite common in high-end vehicles, but it's not unique to Maybach; Rolls-Royce or some premium Mercedes-Benz models also feature similar elements. I think its main purpose is to enhance the privacy and comfort of rear passengers, reducing glare from sunlight and minimizing wind noise. If you spot a car with this small window on the street, take a closer look at the door details—for example, the Maybach version has more refined craftsmanship. Additionally, this design historically originated from classic luxury cars and has now become a status symbol, though it's rarely seen in everyday family vehicles. When choosing a car, it's worth comparing versions across different brands.
