Mumbai recently witnessed a grand display of luxury as Anant Ambani, the youngest heir of the Ambani empire, made a striking entrance in his brand-new white Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II. This luxury SUV, the first of its kind in India, made waves not only for its exclusivity but for the grand security convoy that accompanied it.
Ambani’s Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II, valued upwards of INR 11 crores, was escorted through the bustling streets by a fleet of vehicles fit for royalty. Four Mercedes-AMG G 63 models served as part of his high-end security detail, while a Lexus LM, Mercedes-Benz V-Class, and a Land Rover Defender added to the grandeur. The convoy was further guarded by Land Rover Discovery, MG Gloster, Mahindra XUV500, Ford Endeavour, and Mahindra Scorpio, making for a formidable line-up of vehicles.
This is not Anant Ambani’s first brush with Rolls-Royce luxury, as he is known to have more than five Cullinans in his enviable collection. His mother, Nita Ambani, also owns a custom pink Rolls-Royce Phantom, one of the most unique cars in the country. It seems luxury vehicles are becoming a routine acquisition for the Ambani scion, who is rumored to be adding a new Rolls-Royce to his garage almost every month. In fact, in a display of indulgence, he recently gifted his pet dog a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon.
The Ambani family’s garage, with over 300 cars, is a showcase of automotive royalty. Among its prized possessions are Rolls-Royce Wraith, Dawn, Phantom Drophead Coupe, a bulletproof Mercedes-Benz S-Guard, Bentley Bentayga, Ferrari Purosangue, and the ultra-rare Ferrari SF90.
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II, which begins production in August 2024 as a 2025 model, marks an evolution in luxury SUV design. While retaining the powerful V12 engine, the Series II offers extensive interior upgrades, cutting-edge technology, and stunning 23-inch wheels. It continues the legacy of the Cullinan, named after the largest diamond ever discovered, emphasizing unmatched elegance and craftsmanship.
Anant Ambani’s latest purchase is a reflection of his family’s penchant for owning the best in the world, aligning with the vast empire built by his father, Mukesh Ambani. As the chairman of Reliance Industries and with a net worth of $123.3 billion, Mukesh Ambani stands as Asia’s richest individual and ranks 11th globally as of July 2024.
The sight of India’s first Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II cruising through Mumbai is just another reminder of the Ambani family’s luxurious lifestyle, setting new benchmarks in the country’s automotive scene.
