Vladimir would approve.

Russian tuning experts A1 AUTO have presented their latest project to the world—a lavish Mercedes-Maybach S-Class that is designed as a be-all-and-end-all VIP conveyance. The tuned model offers a silent and very private ride for its passengers—must-have features of a vehicle intended for high-profile figures.

The tuned version of the S-Class Mercedes-Maybach sedan is defined by the center partition wall which provides limousine seclusion for the passengers. The wall boasts a design unique to the Russian tuning company, a slim-profile tonneau that merges high-quality glass and noise-canceling materials. Also particular to the partition wall is the changeable opacity of its glass: it can be darkened or lightened via pushbutton. Communication between passengers and drivers may be accomplished, when the wall is up, through a standard intercom/loudspeaker system.

The tuned Mercedes-Maybach S-Class sedan keeps its original digital touchscreens; they have been removed from the front seat headrests and installed into the partition. For convenient location of reading materials and important business papers, a pair of pockets has been installed into the wall, dedicated to left and right passengers.

A1 Auto didn’t leave out the additional cosmetics which are expected in a high-end tuning project. The standard Maybach-grade diamond-stitched leather upholstery has been trimmed with Alcantara, and also with wood veneer, most notably along the partition, where it is enhanced with LED lighting.
