Indian Business Tycoon Takes Delivery Of Three Rolls-Royce Cars On Same Day
For even the wealthiest businessmen, buying a single Rolls Royce luxury car is a big achievement. However, there are some ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNIs) who own multiple Rolls Royce Motorcars. Recently, one such UHNI from Kolhapur, Maharashtra, took delivery of not one, not two, but three Rolls Royce cars. These included a Cullinan Series II, a Ghost Series II, and a Spectre EV. In total, these three cars cost around Rs 27 crore.
The image showing the owner of these Rolls Royce cars parked next to each other has been shared on Instagram by Supercar Club India on their page. In this image, Sanjay Ghodawat, the owner of these three Rolls Royce cars, can be seen standing in the middle and posing. The first vehicle is the Cullinan Series II, then there is the Ghost Series II, and lastly, the Spectre EV is parked at the end.
For those who may be wondering who Sanjay Ghodawat is, he is the Chairman of the Sanjay Ghodawat Group (SGG). His company has multiple businesses in sectors including energy, aviation, consumer goods, food processing, and education. He is also the Chairman of Sanjay Ghodawat University.
From the image, we can see that the first vehicle (from the left) is the Rolls Royce Cullinan Series II. It is considered the most luxurious SUV in the world, and Sanjay Ghodawat has opted for the classy shade of Iguazu Blue for his Cullinan Series II. This is the second-generation model, which gets slimmer LED headlights and new L-shaped LED DRLs.
It also gets a slightly tweaked front grille, refreshed front and rear bumpers, and a set of new alloy wheels. On the inside, it gets a full-width glass panel called the “Gallery” and the new Rolls Royce Spirit infotainment system. Powering the Cullinan Series II is a 6.75-litre twin-turbocharged V12 petrol motor making 571 bhp and 850 Nm of torque.
Transmission duties are handled by an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it gets an all-wheel-drive system. The standard Cullinan Series II is priced at Rs 10.50 crore (ex-showroom). Meanwhile, the Black Badge variant of this SUV is priced at Rs 12.25 crore (ex-showroom). With options, this price can get bumped up very quickly.
Next up in the middle is the Rolls Royce Ghost Series II, which is the second-generation Ghost’s facelifted iteration. It starts at Rs 8.95 crore, and the business tycoon Ghodawat has chosen the classy shade of Bohemian Red. This sedan comes with redesigned headlights, refreshed bumpers, and new alloy wheels.

The last vehicle in the image of Sanjay Ghodawat is the Rolls Royce Spectre EV. It is the brand's first and only electric vehicle available for sale.
