Silver Maybach GLS 600 from a front three-quarter on a Beverly Hills street

Chrome And Quiet

Maybach GLS 600

Mercedes builds the GLS for seven. Maybach takes the third row out, puts two recliners in its place, and charges for the privilege.

Rental in Los Angeles · from $1,799

The most expensive thing Mercedes sells with a boot, and the cheapest way into a Maybach.

A Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 starts as the largest SUV Mercedes makes and is then taken apart by Maybach: the third row comes out, two reclining seats go in its place, the grille grows a set of vertical chrome slats and running boards fold out of the sills when a door opens.

01Full length, and the chrome runs the whole of it. The rear door is noticeably longer than the front, which is the giveaway.

Almost every decision on this car is about the second row rather than the driving seat, which is unusual for something we let self-drive. The doors are longer, the boards drop down so nobody has to climb, and the glass is thicker than the standard car's because the point is that the back is quiet.

From outside it announces itself with chrome and does the rest by size. Parked next to a normal GLS it is the same length and a different proposition, and at a hotel entrance that difference is legible from the far end of the forecourt.

The particulars

The Maybach GLS 600 with a driver

This is the car built to be driven in, and it is booked that way: the investor day, where the back seat is the office between Century City and Downtown, and the one night a year — the premiere, the anniversary, the dinner where the entrance is part of the evening. With a driver it is two lines on one quote: the driver from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum, and the GLS 600 at the $1,799 it carries on this page. An evening block of four hours comes to $2,199, driver and car together; a business day of 8 hours is $2,599.

The driver waits inside the block — through the dinner, between the meetings — and the waiting and the fuel are in the hourly line rather than found on the bill afterwards. The car on the quote is this one, named, not a class with “or similar” after it, and it is the same Maybach you can take the keys to on this page: a driver for the one day that should be driven, and the rest of the stay yours.

  • I had an amazing experience renting this car! The vehicle was incredibly clean, well-maintained, and drove smoothly throughout my trip. It was comfortable, reliable, and perfect for my needs. The team was fantastic — very communicative, accommodating, and made the whole process seamless. I highly recommend renting from this luxury car rental and would definitely do so again in the future. Thank you for a great experience!

Queries

Where can I rent a Maybach GLS 600 in Los Angeles?
Nizo Luxury rents the Maybach GLS 600 in Los Angeles — +1 (424) 303-6496. It is $1,799 a day; we bring it to your hotel or your home, or you collect it at no charge from our office on Robertson Boulevard.
How much does it cost to rent a Maybach GLS 600 in Los Angeles?
The Maybach GLS 600 is $1,799 a day. The day rate is the whole of it on this car — there is no weekly or monthly block, so a longer booking is priced day by day. Delivery to our Beverly Hills partner hotels is complimentary.
How is it different from a normal Mercedes GLS?
The third row comes out and two reclining seats take its place, so it seats four rather than seven. The grille, the wheels, the running boards and the glass are all Maybach's, and the back half is where the money went.
Is it a good car to be driven in?
That is what it was built for. If the plan is an airport run or an evening where somebody else drives, this is the one in the fleet designed around the back seat rather than the front.
Can I rent a Maybach GLS 600 with a driver in Los Angeles, and roughly how much?
Yes, and it is the car in the fleet that most rewards it. The driver is from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum and the car is its own line at $1,799 a day, so an evening block of four hours comes to $2,199 for driver and car together, and a business day of 8 hours is $2,599. The shortest chauffeured booking is two hours. Waiting inside the block and fuel are in the hourly line. It is the back-seat car to book with a driver: two reclining seats rather than a bench and the quietest cabin we hold, named on the quote rather than a class with “or similar” after it.
How far ahead should I book it?
It is one of the most-booked cars in the fleet through the summer. Name the date early and it is held for you.

The terms, before you commit

Refundable deposit
$2,000
A hold, not a charge, and released 5–7 business days after a clean return, longer only if there is damage to price.
Protection plan
$225 a day
Priced off the deposit rather than the rate. Your own qualifying full-coverage policy takes this line out of the quote entirely.
Driver, 21–24
$175 a day
Twenty-one is the floor, with a licence held two years. The higher band applies at or above a $1,500 deposit; this car is in it.
Shortest booking
24 hours
No maximum. Delivery is complimentary at our Robertson Boulevard lot and our four Beverly Hills partner hotels; LAX is $150 both ways with the car in the airport parking structure or $300 both ways to the terminal, half that for one direction.

This one is the same rate at every length — it carries no multi-day block, so three days is three times one day.

Renting the Maybach GLS 600: the short answers

What do I need to rent the Maybach GLS 600, and can international guests book?
A driver of 21 or over with a licence held at least two years — between 21 and 24 a young-driver fee of $175 a day applies on this car, and under 21 is considered case by case. A major credit card in the primary renter's name for the refundable hold, and cover for the car: your own full-coverage policy if it extends to a rental, or our Protection plan arranged with the booking. International guests rent on a passport and a home-country licence; no International Driving Permit is needed. The hold is released 5–7 business days after a clean return, longer only if there is damage to price. If the age floor or the cover is the thing in the way, the same car goes out with a driver instead — that booking asks neither of you.
Can the Maybach GLS 600 be delivered to my hotel, my home or LAX?
Yes. Delivery is complimentary to the Beverly Wilshire, the Four Seasons at Doheny, L’Ermitage and the Maybourne, and collection from our Robertson Boulevard office costs nothing. LAX is $150 both ways with the car in the airport parking structure or $300 both ways to the terminal, half that for one direction. Any other address is priced by distance from the office, $75 one way inside 10 miles, and itemised on the quote before you pay.
How many miles are included, and can I take the Maybach GLS 600 out of California?
Every car carries its own daily mileage allowance, and yours arrives in writing with the booking confirmation, together with the per-mile rate for anything over it. The car may leave the state — Las Vegas, Arizona, up the coast — as long as you tell us the plan in advance and keep the allowance in mind; it comes home to Los Angeles, since there is no one-way drop in another city.
What does a weekend in the Maybach GLS 600 cost, and can I rent it by the hour?
$3,598 for two days and $5,397 for three, before the Protection plan, tax and any delivery — there is no separate weekend rate, and one day is the minimum on a Saturday too. The day is the shortest self-drive booking; by the hour, the car goes out with a driver, from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum.
