Kia India unveils Carens Clavis, a premium recreational vehicle
The elegant and super luxurious Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II has arrived in Mumbai, the third city in Southeast East and India and the third market ex-China to bring in this car for sale. The car will cost Rs 4.5 crore in India.
The Ghost Series II was unveiled at a gala function in Mumbai. India is one of the top five markets in the Asia Pacific region for Ghost. India-bound Ghost automobiles are also amongst the most Bespoke in the world, with most having some form of Bespoke content. Building on this success is Ghost Series II.
The Ghost II is 5399 mm long and around 1948 mm wide, with a height (unladen) of 1550 mm. The car has a wheelbase of 3295 mm and a turning radius of 13.4 m. Weighing around 2470 kg (kerb weight), the car has a vast boot space of 490 litre.
The Ghost II is powered by a V 12 engine with 48 valves. This direct injection machine churns out 563 bhp @ 5,250 rpm and unleashes a peak torque of 780 Nm @ 1,500 rpm. The car has a top speed of 250 kmph (governed) and accelerates from 0 to 100 kmph in 4.9 sec. As far as consumption is concerned, it consumes 21.2 litre of unleaded petrol per 100km in the city , while on the highway it consumes as speed of 9.8 litre per 100km.
The car now comes with re-engineered and re-designed LED headlights are framed by day-time running lights. Revised surface treatments including re-sculptured bumpers present a wider, more dynamic stance. There is also a new bonnet design featuring tapered ‘wake channel’ emanating from the Spirit of Ecstasy that hints at Ghost Series II’s dynamism.
The re-designed front seats include electronically adjustable thigh supports and depth adjustment. Rear seats have been subtly re-angled to augment effortless communication with fellow passengers.
The clock fascia and instrument dials are enhanced with the addition of polished metal chaplets. There is also an option of extending natural grain leather to the A and C pillars.
The re-designed LED headlights incorporate the latest technologies. A whiter, brighter light augments driver safety whilst electronic reflectors move in the direction of travel in response to steering-wheel turns. New anti-glare technology deflects light when a car approaches in the other direction, giving Ghost Series II drivers the benefit of full-beam headlights at all times. Suspension enhancements include re-engineered front and rear struts, new steering gear and adjusted dampers that increase the car’s cornering ability when the Dynamic Driving Package is specified.
All Ghost Series II motor cars feature Satellite Aided Transmission as standard – a technology that utilises GPS and mapping data to ensure the car is always in the correct gear when negotiating turns, motorway exists and roundabouts.
