Maybach Exelero high-performance show car was presented to the world for the first time in Tempodrom in Berlin. The 700-hp two-seater with a V-12 biturbo engine is a unique for Fulda tires produced works with the Maybach Exelero as a reference for a newly developed generation of wide tires. To build the German luxury car manufacturer to a unique model as a modern interpretation of the efficient exercise of the legendary cars of the 1930s, thereby forging a link with the historical predecessor, which at that time was also based on a powerful Maybach automobile (SW 38) and by Fulda Tyres for the test.
Exelero embodies the highest expression of the Maybach individualisation strategy of customer-specific solutions on request date. In initial tests on high-speed track in Nardo (Italy), the unique vehicle reached a top speed of 351.45 km / h (FIA-standard units). Developers at Maybach designed the custom model with the participation of students from Pforzheim College. Exelero was built by the prototype specialists at Stola in Turin (Italy). There are no plans to produce a model in the series.
Design - No matter what happens, not a retro design!
In the mid-1990s, Fulda tires already designed a show truck by the students of the University of Applied Sciences in Pforzheim Transportation Design Department under the direction of Professor James Kelly. Since 2000, the 100th Anniversary of Fulda, uniue vehicles with futuristic aura of the trailer, the full length in the middle and has expanded on the road for the use of many events will be divided. Not only Fulda, also cooperation partners Maybach and Design Division, DaimlerChrysler has had good experience with Pforzheim Polytechnic and was happy to agree. On the side of the Polytechnic accept Professor Kelly and Professor Lutz Fügener responsibility for the project, and select four students from semester 6, which is to produce a design under the same conditions.

On behalf of DaimlerChrysler, Professor Harald Leschke, the group manages its future projects, the responsibility for this project and links with the students for corporate design department. Because students are not only working on the design in school. They also provided a unique opportunity for a semester of practical, directly in the design center DaimlerChrysler in Sindelfingen, under the wing design professionals. Included is the use of latest technology equipment to the 3-D animation.
The implementation of creative ideas quickly and very professionally handled. From the first briefing at the Polytechnic University (only the formal specification of Fulda: Whatever happens no retro design) until the final design choice that must be realized, took only less than eight months. At the end came Fredrik Burchhardt 24, from Bowenden, emerged as the winner. Its design is best suited in terms of the transformation of the design of the study a reality. Even the design relationship between the two generations of the most striking vehicle in the design Burchhardt it.
However, Professor Leschke pour praise on all the students involved: .. "Although the design by Fredrik Burchhardt win in the end, the ideas of the three other students and the integration of this project is a joint effort of every single one of them showed the imagination must remain so, any design can be realized." Good performance at this price, all four models are milled as a model in 1:4 scale.
At the end of the design can be called a success. The Fulda / Maybach project was created in a unique combination of design students, their professors, specialists at DaimlerChrysler and Fulda team. The result: a new vehicle dimension.
The designer combines the best of both genres vehicles - sedans shine and excitement of a coupe. As a result, project cars Fulda / Maybach combined muscle strength and grace seemingly endless.The mission designers were done: Project Exelero is the ambassador of a new generation of tires Fulda Carat Exelero in sizes up to 23 inches.
