Rolls-Royce Phantom vs Maybach S-Class // King Meets Prince
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 09. 2021
- The 2021 Rolls-Royce Phantom (Over $700,000 CAD as specced, ~$550,000 USD converted) is an incredibly luxurious vehicle that glides over the road without any effort. But how does it compare to the cutting edge tech and design of the much less expensive 2021 Maybach S580 ($286,528 CAD as specced, ~$218,200 USD)? Thomas and James ask themselves what luxury truly means, and how it relates to the experience that a car can provide. What will they think? Will the new tech in the Maybach be enough to compete with the Phantom’s ultra-premium materials and bespoke design? SUBSCRIBE!
A huge thank you to Mercedes-Benz Peterborough for letting us feature both of these vehicles. The Phantom is still for sale. Get in touch with them here www.mercedes-benz-peterboroug...

You can buy two Maybach's just to do jousting at 100kmh with your friend, and it's still cheaper than buying one Phantom
Blarg do you still have a c63?
Dude the phantom is a statement piece. For the real businessman, that means more than “features for the price” lmao. Me personally, i would never buy either even if i had billions.
@@prabh8197 why, because he has taste?
aside from price, i think they care more about the customer,; the customer would want to buy a rolls and spending 300k+ on a car does not matter for most of them. they also have chauffeurs or drivers
Lol goodluck y'all getting a brand new Phantom 🤣🤣🤣,
They don't let any customer get a Rolls-Royce, you have to be special enough, worthy enough for thier prestigious post opulent offering.

You're just telling us you don't watch car reviews. Loads of funny ones on here.

@@sketos_d grand tour is available on prime. Watch that. It's a billion times better than this 😃
Wow... I just felt at peace by just looking at this Phantom ride... Magic. I could see how smooth the suspension is. The wheels moving up and down so passengers don´t feel anything. Thank you for this moment!!!
I agree ☝️ Phantom is very expensive but it’s worth the money more than any other car in its class. From my personal experience The ride quality on phantom is on another level, purely magic. Maybach is a modified S class with extra stuff inside nothing special about it
The “should have work for Doug demuro” was hilarious

I never forget the first time a RR Phantom drove by next to me. Me sitting in the driver seat of a normal limousine and the front of the RR still being at the hight of my shoulders - these cars are gigantic…
The Phantom is ridiculously big. At 6 meters long, it dwarfs the Suburban by nearly 300 mm in length. That's about the same difference as the E Class and long wheelbase S Class, and yet the Phantom is a 4 seat sedan.
@@smar1208 Yeah. The phantom is longer than my school bus(Tempo Traveller Scholar edition). Even the Maybach is bigger but the difference is negligible. Force motors used to run ads in India showing off how compact their buses are by comparing them with the S class and showing how they were smaller.
@@smar1208 imagine the extended wheelbase lol
ok
Rolls Royce are king of stature the height packs a punch! New Maybach sits way 2 low
Maybach is like a cool, smart teenager while the Phantom is a supreme and wise elder person.
Just that the buyers are the other way round, young rappers buy pink Rolls, while elder people buy a classy Maybach because they know how to spend money well.
@@Lukas-eh4cf I've had the chance to meet old-money a few times working as a driver for some time. And it was always a Rolls and never a Maybach. Would have to highly disagree with that statement.
"Teenager" lmao, the maybach is one of the old traditional luxury car brands. Mercedes-Benz itself is the oldest car maker
@@Icetea-2000 I was trying to express the vibe the cars give but if you want to take it literally.. sure, go ahead
bs mate, stupid example of a few famous kids, Rolls makes Merc/maybach/Renault feels junk from personal experience @@Lukas-eh4cf
As a mechanic, it seems that the Maybach is full of things that will go expensively wrong in 10-15 years while the RR will keep going for twice that. It's not a problem for the first owner but as these cars age it will be an issue on the second or third hand market.
RR is not a reliable car. And a switch costs as a 10 year old s class.
debatable.
@@SugarBlood15 i think it's more reliable than Mercedes
@@Eumanel12 You can think that, but the statistics won't change.
It's not for poor people, new or old.
If I had the chance to choose between Maybach and Phantom, I would definitely choose Phantom. Then I would sell it and buy 2 Maybach 😁

I’m so glad I found your channel! Really enjoy you both and love watching your reviews! Keep up the good work fellas!
You guys are just too good. Top notch review.
The production value on every Throttle House video is amazing.
The RR wins without a struggle, and the difference between the two can be summed up in one word. Presence. The difference in the reception of the General Public & staff at major hotels & events is easily measurable. You guy are great! Love your intro's.
as a rolls owner in the near future can confirm...
Just buy a Maybach GLS and hire a second driver in addition with the money that you safed and there you have your presence
RR lol at first I thought you meant Redline Reviews
I love the rolls royce but it wins strictly with exterior and everyone knowing it's a phantom. Interior wise it doesn't come close to the Maybach. Not at all. I have rolls royce phantom and recently have been considering selling it to get the new Maybach. So I've had time with both. The rolls royce is the better car to feel good in but the Maybach will give you better functionality and experience.
I think Maybach is simply a better car. More advanced and more options. If luxury isnt about comfort and having as many options as possible then idk what is. The Rolls however does have the presence, exclusivity combined with having such a smooth quiet ride. Other then that who drives or gets chauffeured around saying, "you know everyone, these seats and steering wheel were stitched and wrapped by single person by HAND". Lmao like who cares for that type of crap. There leather seats not homemade meals. Both cars ride like a cloud.
Someone once said " If you want all the latest, fancy technology you buy a Maybach, if you want to feel like a King, buy a RR"
No one ever said that
@typicalgamer5560 OK and you know I'm sure.
Ok plato.
@@Chris-181 Which one, the clever Greek or the British racing driver?
I was planning to buy Maybach, but after watching your video I changed my mood and bought Phantom...
In my dream 😀
Good one 😂
Just realised how big Phantoms are from this video. That car is a boat.
Looked like a short wheelbase as well.
It's longer than an Extended wheelbase Cadillac Escalade lol!
I saw one parked in a car park once, it genuinely is as big as tall as an SUV, the presence is incredible.
That was the quietest "I am James", I have heard.😂
Wonderful review made by these guys
Intro was great 🔥🔥🔥😂😂
The "hey Mercedes" part made me laugh
A) the vehicle is literally a Mercedes-Maybach.
2) even if the voice control responded to "Hey Maybach" it wouldn't answer because 98.73% of those who don't know better call the brand "may-Back"... effin' 'tards.
@@TheLanceFrazier mmmm may-back music
That exterior rear quarter view on the Maybach is simply stunning! The way the roof line flows into the trunk, the small window forward of the B-pillar... yes, absofreakinlutely beautiful! I'd definitely take the Maybach over the Rolls.
Absolutely right ✅
Unpopular opinion but the Maybach looks wayyyy better than the Rolls.

Ok, Rolls is the undisputed king of luxury, but comon man, Maybach does deserve some appreciation for where they've reached: battling Rolls and Bentley directly. Idk, but its the Maybach for me; its friggin unique. ❤
Great video guys, love you both all day ❤ 🙌 😀
Unique? You might wanna look up the meaning there Sir! Nice try though. It's a well specced S Class essentially. The Phantom needs no introduction!

As for me, both cars are awesome. The mb and the rr: the one pocesses some sound tech and the latter a more classical view of luxury compared to the former. But I love the two, and are worth having at a time, had I the resource
Successful goals are like priceless treasures and require maximum attention to develop, which is called advice and pep talks and better opportunities for job opportunities and good work from the government.

The subtitle : My Butt 💀
_"I knew that was gonna happen a hundred percent yeah.. *that was so worth it*"_ SAVAGE THOMAS LOL
Thomas finally got even for that Updog joke from the other video.
It's sad that the Maybach was once a full car, now it's just a trim level.
😔
Its very sad mercedes should rethink about this to me cannot compare this maybach and rolls though rolls old but it has that thing
How far back when it was a full car. Not the 2000s models? But yeah I would go for the fully specced s class. If I ever had the money.
... and thus, much cheaper AND higher quality now, so peasants like you and me can at least dream to afford it one day.
Maybach couldn’t shift enough cars on its own, merging the Maybach name onto normal S-class was the best decision they could’ve made for sales for the brand.
I like the phantom exterior and the Maybach interior
Lol that Intro got me stucked watching the whole thing despite me not being able to afford to even stare at these cars.
Another great video fellas. The dynamic between you two, and the HILARIOUS dialog will keep viewers urgently waiting for the next video from you and your team. Awesome job as always, and thanks!! 👍🏾

@Throttle House, so when will you be testing a New Mercedes-Benz S580 with the E-Active body control suspension? We are curious as to if it fixes the bumpiness with the standard air suspension.
It's funny how there's an argument about prices on these cars, when u reach the wealth to pay for those cars it doesn't matter anymore how much you pay, if you afford to buy a Maybach you probably can buy a Rolls-Royce it's just up to you and what you want from the car
‘Ehh I dunno man. There are a lot of people who can afford a $180k car. However, im sure that number is drastically reduced at $400k. One is an “I make good money” car, the other is an “I have no clue how much money I have” car.
A lot of generationally wealthy people count every penny they spend, they always look for ways to get the best deal possible and argue over miniscule amounts as long as they come out on top. Its often the new money that buys these "toys" that depreciate hourly.
Youre not only paying more for for buying it...

Very much agree, coming from a diehard BMW fan, I was driven in a s class (not maybach) not too long ago while I was visiting Germany, and I'm sorry but I was flying at 200kmh. Absolutely impeccable driving. It's also much more modern feeling than the rolls and probably, as a tech person, would be better for me.

I’d rather have the Rolls, but as a value proposition, the Maybach blows it out of the water. Still. The new Phantom is the king.
