Brabus includes radio keyboard and optical 'Gyro' wireless mouse for ease of use, while several USB 2.0 ports are integrated sympathetically into the centre console. This means that external devices, such as printers or digital cameras can be hooked up when required.

But wait, there's more. Also included is an IBM X Series notebook in an electrically extendable drawer in the trunk, making it possible for the owner to remain online even outside the car, via the W-LAN in the vehicle. Also, a 6-disk DVD changer delivers audio and visual entertainment to the previously mentioned monitors.
The car's massive 10-spoke lightweight alloy wheels look out of place on a car of the Maybach's luxurious character, but nevertheless deliver enhanced levels of performance as fitted to the low-profile tires. Also added are two integrated auxiliary headlights in the front apron, visually separating the upgraded Brabus from the stock Maybach.

With all the Brabus goodies in long wheelbase trim the SV 12 will cost more than most luxury houses at 722,000 euro (USD$883,365; CAD$1,181,503). If that's too steep, the short wheelbase Brabus with the same features will only set you back 622,000 euro (USD$761,015; CAD$1,017,860).
