India's Most Expensive Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II Black Badge

As mentioned, this particular Rolls-Royce is the most expensive Ghost Black Badge in India. The primary reason for it being the most expensive is that it is the Series II model. And on top of that, it is the Black Badge model. For those who may not be aware, the Black Badge edition cars in the Rolls-Royce lineup are cars which, along with luxury, are also focused on sporty appeal as well.

The Black Badge line was introduced by the British luxury carmaker to lure in younger-generation buyers. Coming to the specific pricing of this particular Ghost Series II Black Badge, as per the reports, it costs over Rs 18 crore. A standard Ghost Series II Black Badge costs Rs 10.51 crore. However, Venu Gopalakrishnan has opted for a ton of options which have driven up the price.

This particular Ghost Series II Black Badge is finished in the beautiful dual-tone shades of Black Diamond and Gunmetal Grey, which give it a very menacing yet classy appearance. Additionally, it also gets the bespoke coachline finished in a copper color, which gives it a unique touch. For those who may not be aware, this line is hand-drawn by a squirrel tail hair brush.

Also, only one person in the entire world can paint this coachline on Rolls-Royce cars. Apart from these, the interior of this Ghost Black Badge has been optioned with Phoenix Red and black leather upholstery. Like all the Black Badge models, this particular car also ditches wooden inlays for unique checkered carbon fiber trims.

This motor comes mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The new Ghost Series II Black Badge is based on the “Architecture of Luxury” platform, which is a bespoke platform for the Ghost and not a BMW 7-Series borrowed platform.
