The 53-crore Club! The Most Expensive Cars From Luxe Brands

There are eight brands available in India that form the absolute stratosphere of automotive luxury in the country. Each of these brands offers differentiated experiences, even within a larger segment, like a supercar, a super-refined saloon, an ultra-luxury SUV, or an uber sophisticated GT car. Yet none is chosen in its base form by their owners. Their products are nearly always served bespoke, tailored to fit the client to the T.

Here, we pick the best of the best as we bring to you a list of the most expensive products, one each, from these eight divine auto brands. Together, they form the 53-crore club.

Ferrari Purosangue – INR 10.50 Crore

This is the first Ferrari to get four doors and four seats. Named Purosangue, which in Italian means thoroughbred, this is the culmination of 75 years of cutting-edge research with the single goal of creating cars that redefine driving pleasure and infuse it with comfort. It is powered by a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 that produces 725HP and 716Nm of peak torque.

Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II – INR 10.33 Crore

The Cullinan is the only SUV from the world’s most revered automotive brand. Sitting at the pinnacle of luxury, the Cullinan Series II is powered by a silky smooth 6.75-litre twin turbo V12 that puts out 571HP and a max torque of 850Nm to help it glide over all and every road surface, like a magic carpet.

Lamborghini Revuelto – INR 8.89 Crore

This is a 1015HP fire-breathing bull from Sant’Agata. It is also Lamborghini’s first plug-in hybrid supercar, mating a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 with three electric motors to produce not just that mental power output but also a tarmac-shredding, angry, snorting 1062Nm of peak torque. Exactly like the minotaur of legend.

Bentley Bentayga EWB – INR 5.9 Crore

The Bentayga in its extended wheelbase version is Bentley’s answer to the Cullinan as well as the Mercedes-Maybach GLS, cleverly placed to appeal to clients of both ends of that ultra-luxe SUV spectrum. Refined power comes from its 4-litre twin turbo V8 engine that puts out 550HP and 770Nm of max torque. 

McLaren 750S – INR 5.9 Crore

Priced exactly like the Bentley but a completely different beast altogether, the McLaren represents the other extreme of classic British motoring – the single-minded pursuit of speed. At the core of this carbonfibre super machine sits a 4-litre twin turbo V8 that produces 750HP and 800Nm, which can push this car from 0 to 100kmph in just 2.8 seconds and then on to 200kmph in 7.2!

Maserati MCPURA – INR 4.12 Crore

Maserati’s MCPURA is the latest evolution of the MC20 halo car and the Trident’s representation of a super sports car. Powered by a 3-litre twin turbo V6 that produces 630HP and 720Nm of peak torque, the MCPURA is totally about bringing an authentic Maserati driving experience, which is essentially about allowing the driver to connect with the machine without filters.

Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series – INR 4.12 Crore

This one is the sportiest model from Maybach. Ever. Launched in two colours, Red Ambience and White Ambience, the SL 680 Monogram Series offers a holistic sensory experience. The extensively insulated acoustic soft top consists of light black fabric, with the Maybach pattern subtly incorporated in anthracite. Its 4-litre biturbo V8 engine produces 585HP and 800Nm of maximum torque, making for a 0-100kmph acceleration possible in 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 260kmph.

Porsche 911 Turbo S – INR 3.81 Crore

The childhood poster car of every car enthusiast, the 911 Turbo S represents the absolute pinnacle of sports cars. This iconic two-door sports car features a 3.6-litre six-cylinder boxer engine working in collaboration with an electric motor. Peak power is 711HP, and max torque is 800Nm. As a result, a 0-100kmph sprint takes just 2.5 seconds, while 0-200kmph takes 8.4 seconds before the 911 Turbo S posts its top speed of 322kmph.
