Maybach, or Maybach-Motorenbau GmbH, was founded 1918 by Wilhelm Maybach (who helped establish Daimler-Benz) and his son Karl. Count Zeppelin of the Zeppelin blimp fame helped finance the company eight years earlier when it was Luftfahrzeug-Motorenbau GmbH (Airship Engine Company).
The first Maybach, the W3, debuted at the 1921 Berlin Motor Show. There, the automaker established itself as a custom maker of luxurious, powerful cars. In 1930, the company would debut its now famous Zeppelin cars.
The company changed focus to non-automotive engine design and manufacture during and after World War II. In the Sixties, Daimler-Benz, owner of automaker Mercedes-Benz, took over the company and merged it with its own engine manufacturer. Daimler-Benz also revived the Maybach automotive branch: in 1997, the Mercedes-Benz Maybach concept debuted at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Today, Maybachs are sold worldwide as their own brand. In 2002, the Maybach 57 and 62 went on sale. The 57S, with "S" standing for "Special" instead of "Sport", debuted at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. Also that same year, the company unveiled the Maybach Exelero, a custom Maybach commissioned by tire maker Fulda.
