Meet The Youngest Indian To Buy Rolls Royce Cullinan Series II Black Badge [Video]
We know how special the Rolls Royce Cullinan is, and what additional value the ‘Black Badge’ brings to it. Meet Amjad Sithara, CEO of BCC Group and the youngest Indian to buy a Cullinan Series 2 Black Badge. The entrepreneur is just 33, and the Cullinan is his second Rolls Royce.
The BCC Group International owns and runs multiple businesses. Mainly, they are in the manpower services sector in UAE. Another key area of interest for the group is the realty sector. The verticals are spread across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and India. The young CEO has a penchant for cars- Rolls Royce in particular.
His garage in India consists of Range Rover, Mercedes G Wagen, Maybach etc. He also possesses a Dodge Charger, a BMW 7 series, a Rolls Royce Wraith ( which was actually a gift for his wife) and the newly acquired Cullinan Series 2 Black Badge. He even owns a Suzuki Hayabusa, as suggested by one of the videos shared on Instagram.
In the Indian market, the regular RR Cullinan Series II is priced at 10.5 crores. However, the Black Badge version is more powerful, packed with more luxury features and costs 12.25 Crores. It was only in October that Rolls Royce launched the duo in our country. While the Cullinan offers a plethora of personalisation opportunities in itself, the Black Badge takes it further ahead.
The Black Badge is deemed a sportier and more dynamic iteration of the Cullinan. Thus, it has slight exterior styling differences from the standard car. It gets a different front fascia design with reworked front bumpers and air dams, even while retaining the sleek headlamps and DRLs. Rolls Royce offers high bespoke potential on the Black Badge.
Amjad’s Cullinan 2 Black Badge has its interior in Orange and Black shades, a colourway that looks poignant and classy. The exterior gets a shade of Black.
Coming to the engine and specifications, the Black Badge Cullinan series 2 draws its juice from a 6.7L twin-turbocharged V12 petrol engine that makes 600 hp and 900 Nm. (30hp and 50 Nm more than the regular Cullinan Series 2) Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The second Rolls Royce in Amjad’s garage is a Wraith coupe. Reports say that this is a Black Badge as well. This was in fact, a gift to Amjad’s wife on her 21st birthday. Back in 2021, the Wraith had an ex-showroom price of 8.5 crores. Around 29 lakh was paid in insurance alone.
Amjad’s love for Rolls Royce is currently getting much attention from netizens. People are flooding his Instagram with comments on the RR and other vehicles from his collection. The entrepreneur seems to have built a decent fan following just for his cars alone.
Mukesh Ambani Owns India’s First Cullinan Series II
Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani is an extremist when it comes to love for the Rolls Royce SUV! He has a total of 10 Cullinans in his garage! The latest addition is a Series 2 which was also the first to be retailed in India. The actual acquisition happened a day or two before the official India launch. Unlike many of his previous buys, the Series 2 is not a Black Badge version.
