For the most part, buying a new vehicle is quite generic but definitely exciting, especially in India. You go to the showroom, select the car, the colour and choose some optional accessories, and it’s done. But did you know buying cars from the super-premium carmakers, Rolls Royce is like a small festival? This is what Reliance Industries owner, Mukesh Ambani, went through when purchasing the dazzling Rolls Royce Cullinan for Rs. 13.14 Crore.
The British luxury carmaker, Rolls Royce is known to have some exclusive and elegant customisation options. From the interior to the exterior, every colour of a component is customisable. Not just colour, Rolls Royce also has a varied choice of materials. For instance, leather, Alcantara, perforated leather, and more.
Ambani’s New Rolls Royce Cullinan
The base price of a Rolls Royce Cullinan is around Rs. 6.95 Crore. Then why did the one that Ambani’s bought cost a little more than two Cullinans?
As said before, Rolls Royce offers a plethora of customisations and nothing in this world comes free, so does these options. Every addition of something costs money. That said, Rs. 13.14 Crore includes all the customisations, registration tax, road safety tax of Rs. 40,000 also a one-time tax of Rs. 20 Lakhs. Additionally, a separate amount of Rs. 12 Lakhs for a custom number plate that reads ‘0001’.

Mostly if one had to buy a VIP number, it costs somewhere around Rs. 4 lakhs. But as per the reports, this number was already occupied for the existing number series. Hence, an extra 3 times the amount was paid to get the number in the next series. Also, now Ambani’s own this engineered marvel in Tuscan Sun colour.

The only SUV from this luxury carmaker was launched in India in 2018 and came with all the state of the art equipment and top-notch built quality.
Cullinan’s Engine and Transmission
Under the extraordinarily huge bonnet sits a massive 6.8-lire turbo petrol V12 motor that is capable of generating peak power of 563 bhp and 850Nm of maximum twist. These numbers are not sky-touching but are definitely mouth-watering. Okay, this information is needless considering the engine power specification, still, the Cullinan returns about 6kmpl of fuel economy. Of course, it majorly depends on the driving style of the driver.
