The Maybach W 6 was a six-cylinder luxury car built by Maybach-Motorenbau in Friedrichshafen from 1931 until 1933 or 1934. It was offered beside the twelve-cylinder Zeppelin models as a less costly alternative, and from 1934 it was also sold as the W 6 DSG with a double fast-gear transmission. German Wikipedia puts production at about one hundred cars including the DSG version, and the DSH took over in the range from 1934. As with other Maybach cars of its time the factory delivered a chassis and each customer ordered the body from a coachbuilder.
