Maybach minivan<\/a> isn’t meant to sell in large numbers.<\/p>\n

Still, I have to wonder, who is the buyer?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Maybach sedans and SUVs, I get. Whether you’re a member of the upper-upper-upper class that likes to be flashy, or an executive being shuttled around town, it makes sense that you’d choose one of these bodystyles.<\/p>\n

But a utilitarian minivan? Even accounting for the fact that something like the VLS is going to be setup for space more than utility, it seems silly.<\/p>\n

Then again, maybe I answered my own QOTD — maybe a van shape will simply give the boss in the back seat more legroom and headroom.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What say you? Sound off below.<\/p>\n
