The Maybach Zeppelin was the Maybach company's Repräsentationswagen model from 1928 to 1938. Named for the company's famous production of Zeppelin engines prior to and during World War I, it was an enormous luxury vehicle which weighed approximately 3,000 kg (6,600 lb). This weight was so great that German drivers required an additional goods vehicle licence (needed for vehicles over 2½ tons). Along with the Avions Voisin C18, and behind the Daimler Double Six, this was Europe's joint second luxury V12 car in production.
