After Mahindra BE6, Entrepreneur Buys Rolls Royce Spectre: Takes Delivery With Traditional Indian Rituals
The number of rich entrepreneurs in India is growing, and most of them have a taste for expensive cars too. One such entrepreneur from Kolkata is Parveen Agarwal. He is, in fact, not just an entrepreneur but also a car enthusiast with several supercars in his garage. He recently got himself a brand-new Rolls-Royce Spectre EV worth over Rs 7.5 crore. He took delivery of his new EV with traditional Indian puja rituals.
The video has been shared by Parveen Agarwal on his Instagram page. In this video, we see the Spectre with its bonnet open. A priest from the temple is seen performing the rituals, and the owner and his family are standing right next to the vehicle.
The exterior and interior of the Rolls-Royce Spectre are shown in the video. The car seen here is finished in a Nardo Grey-like shade, while the interiors get a sandalwood colour. The Rolls-Royce Spectre is the first-ever electric vehicle from the British car manufacturer. The price for a brand-new Spectre starts at Rs 7.5 crore (ex-showroom), and just like any Rolls-Royce, customisations make the car even more expensive.
Although it is an EV, Rolls-Royce has not compromised on the design. It continues to feature the signature Rolls-Royce grille with the Spirit of Ecstasy on the bonnet. The colour of the bonnet and the grille can be customised as per the customer's request. The coupe-like sloping roof meets the tailgate of the electric car.
The 23-inch alloy wheels on the Rolls-Royce Spectre are also different from the ICE version. The exact details of the customisations opted for by the owner are not known, but generally, we see features like a starlight roof, premium leather upholstery, wooden and glass panel inserts on the dashboard, electric seats, and multi-zone climate control in these cars.
The Rolls-Royce Spectre weighs over 3 tonnes. It is powered by a 102 kWh battery pack which generates 593 PS and 900 Nm of peak torque. It offers a claimed range of 520 km and can do 0–100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds. As mentioned above, Parveen Agarwal is a car enthusiast and has several expensive cars in his garage. Here is a list of cars that he owns:
