The S 650 is based on the new S-Class facelift that was showcased at the 2017 Shanghai Auto Show. As a result of that, the front fascia now features an updated bumper with larger air dams. The grill is also new with wider slats and is flanked by new LED headlamps with 'Ultra Range High Beam' which can scan the road’s surface and curves and send the required info to the S-Class’ brain. Like the front, it also gets an updated rear fascia with new tail lamps and refreshed bumper. To differentiate it from the standard S-Class, it gets ‘Maybach’ badging on the C-pillar and wheels.

Dimensionally, the S 650 has not grown much as it is just 1mm wider than the S 600. The length and wheelbase remain the same at 5453mm and 3365mm respectively. This makes the S 650 216mm longer and 1mm wider than the standard S-Class. It also gets new 20-inch alloy wheels over the 19-inchers found on the S 600.
