Why The Maybach S580’s Executive Rear Seat Package May Make You Give Up Riding Shotgun – SlashGear

What’s more, both rear seats can be heated or cooled through a ventilation system that circulates air through perforations via reversible fans that draw heat away. They also include power adjustable headrests complete with plush padded pillows that — wait for it — also exude their own warmth directly to the neck and shoulders. If that’s still not enough comfort, passengers can pick from a few different massage programs to work out the kinks.

The center console between the seats has a power-operated cover, houses heated and cooled cupholders, and climate controls. Directly behind the cup holders is another section with a detachable 7-inch remote tablet cradled at the top. Pop it out, and you can control most of the Maybach’s entertainment and comfort features, including the 64-color active LED ambient lighting controls built into the back of front seats and doors.

Open the heated armrest lid (manually), and inside are two fold-out tables like what you might find aboard a first-class airline. Also inside is a wireless device charger and a handful of different ports and plugs for other electronic devices. The section between the seatbacks houses a small rear-cabin refrigerator with a pair of silver-plated champagne flutes, custom-made by five-generation German silversmiths Robbe & Berking.

One drawback to the Executive Rear Seat Package PLUS is it dramatically shrinks the amount of available trunk space. But if hauling things is that important, maybe you should stick to a truck or SUV, not a Maybach.
