Actress Kangana Ranaut Buys Rs 3.8 Crore Mercedes-Maybach S 680 Limousine

The actress received delivery of her new ride as her new movie hits the screens this weekend. Ranaut's new ride is the flagship sedan of the entire Mercedes lineup in India. Unlike the S 580 which is assembled in India, the S 680 is imported into India as a Completely Built Unit (CBU).

The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is an even more opulent and luxurious version of the Mercedes S-Class flagship sedan. The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class (Z223) is a 181mm longer than the long-wheelbase version of the S-Class. All the extra length can be found in the wheelbase of the Maybach S-Class and is used to provide more room at the back for the rich and famous.

The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is 5,470mm long, 1,954mm wide and 1,503mm tall. The wheelbase of the Maybach version of the S-Class is 3,396mm long and the limo weighs between 2,290 and 2,350 kilogrammes.

The Mercedes-Maybach for the Indian market is offered in two guises - the S 580 and the S 680. The Maybach S 580 is powered by the M176 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine that produces 496bhp at 5,500rpm and 700Nm of peak torque between 2,000 and 4,000rpm. The engine features a 48V mild-hybrid system that adds 20bhp and 180Nm of peak torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a 9-speed automatic gearbox. The S 580 can sprint from 0-100km/h in 4.8 seconds and has a top speed of 250km/h.

As mentioned earlier, the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class purchased by actress Kangana Ranaut is the S 680 version which ups the engine game quite significantly. The Mercedes-Maybach S 680 is powered by a 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12 engine that cranks out 603bhp at 5,500rpm and 900Nm of peak torque between 2,000 and 4,000rpm. The engine sends power to all four wheels via a 9-speed automatic gearbox. The S 680 sprints from 0-100km/h in just 4.5 seconds and has a top speed of 250km/h.

The S680 also comes packed with a host of features including Level 2 autonomous driving, with Evasive Steering Assist and Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function. The S 680 also comes packed with 13 airbags including 2 in the seat belts to keep those inside as safe as possible. Other features on the S 680 include air suspension to glide over the speed bumps and potholes and massaging rear seats that can recline as much as 44 degrees while also offering up a foot rest. Additional trim packages install items like a champagne cooler, a full central console and wooden trim.

The all-new S 680 from Mercedes-Maybach is not the only luxury car in Kangana Ranaut's garage. The actress also has a BMW 7 series and Mercedes GLE SUV in her collection. Ranaut's S 680 has been finished in a pure black paint scheme which is among the many single and dual-tone paint options available to Mercedes-Maybach customers in India.
