Just after revealing the much hyped Mercedes-AMG C63 S Coupe, it looks like our favorite luxury brand is on to something more. Recently, spy shots revealed a new prototype of the three-pointed star marque. Based on sources, it might be the Mercedes-Maybach E-Class.

There have been hints earlier this year from the interviews of several company executives that the Mercedes-Maybach will be expanding its lineup. So after the ultra-opulent Mercedes-Maybach S600, it just makes a lot of sense that the next focus of the luxury automaker for its new Maybach variant will be centered on the E-Class. After all, the E-Class core series is just a notch down the S-Class anyway.

The platform of the car definitely says E-Class, but how can it be its Maybach version? Judging the photos provided by Auto Evolution, the auto has a longer wheelbase than the standard model of the range or even for a Mercedes-AMG variant. Then the C-pillar of the prototype  shows the signature Maybach design.

So far, there’s no word about the engine options of the Mercedes-Maybach E-Class as the company is yet to confirm this speculation. For a car this size, it is possible that it will be fitted with around 500 hp unit similar to the V12 equipped in the Mercedes-Maybach S600.

As for the tech within the car. It might get the new Parking Pilot System and the other goodies we featured in our previous report.
