Anant Ambani, the youngest scion of India’s most prominent business family, has added a striking new jewel to his automotive collection. He has commissioned a bespoke Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII Series II Extended in the rare and vivid ‘Star of India Orange’. The colour is a homage to the 1934 Phantom II created for the Maharaja of Rajkot, a car long celebrated in India’s royal motoring history.
This Phantom is a statement of refined taste and heritage. The extended-wheelbase model offers a commanding presence on the road, combining Rolls-Royce’s iconic design language with modern engineering excellence. The white-painted hood reflects the polished aluminium finish of the original Maharaja’s car, bringing a sense of historical continuity to a
contemporary masterpiece.
Inside, the cabin is a sanctuary of comfort and craftsmanship. Sumptuous leather, open-pore wood veneers, and hand-finished details create an environment that invites quiet indulgence. Every surface, seam, and feature has been tailored to reflect the owner’s personal style, making the cabin both intimate and grand.
Performance Meets Luxury
Beneath the elegant exterior lies a 6.75-litre twin-turbocharged V12 engine producing 563 bhp and 900 Nm of torque. This power is delivered effortlessly through a whisper-quiet cabin, ensuring that performance is felt as a smooth, refined presence rather than a roar. The car rides on Rolls-Royce’s Architecture of Luxury platform, offering unparalleled ride comfort, exceptional stability, and a serene driving experience that is entirely in line with the marque’s philosophy of effortless luxury.
Celebrating Heritage with Contemporary Flair
Anant Ambani’s Phantom bridges history and modernity. The Star of India Orange revives a royal legacy while positioning the car firmly within today’s world of bespoke luxury. It reflects a dedication to preserving India’s automotive heritage while embracing contemporary sophistication.
With this bespoke Phantom, Anant Ambani has created a vehicle that captures attention, stirs admiration, and celebrates the finest aspects of design, craftsmanship, and history. It is a car that is as much about presence as performance, and about carrying forward a storied past into the present with style and elegance.
