Rolls-Royce brings in the latest version of their Ghost, the Series II to Delhi soon after its launch and success since November 2014 in Mumbai. The car will cost approximately Rs 4.5 crore.
Sven Ritter, General Manager for Rolls Royce Motor Cars Asia Pacific said that the Ghost has always been a leading choice for Indian buyers. The Ghost Series II will be an even more rewarding experience. India is key market for Rolls-Royce, and Ritter feels that the company is in a strong position for the long term.
Ghost Series II is available with a standard and extended wheelbase, both fitted with a 563bhp, V12 engine from BMW producing 780Nm of torque at only 1500rpm. The standard version has a wheelbase of 3296mm as the extended has a wheelbase of 3465mm. Performance-wise both cars are limited to a top speed of 250kmph and do 0-100kmph in 4.9 and 5 seconds respectively, which is astonishing for something that weights the equivalent of a house. Fuel consumption, as you would expect, won’t give any bragging rights of 4.7kmpl.
