Rolls-Royce Cars in India (4)

Unlike regular high-end brands, and even though it is owned by the BMW Group, Rolls-Royce specialises in producing ultra-premium and well-engineered cars with tailor-made personalisation options that typically differ from car to car. The brand claims that it will try and fulfill every customisation request made by a customer.

Like is the case with cars made by several ultra-luxury auto brands, Rolls-Royce models usually lose their value just as quickly if not quicker. The depreciation not only applies to near-stock cars but also to specially commissioned examples. There are a variety of reasons for this. However, the main factors here include the extremely high cost of maintenance and spare parts, plus the requirement of specialised tools and highly-trained technicians.

While the rear-seat experience is central to a Rolls-Royce, models like the two-door, four-seat Spectre II are exclusively for those who love getting behind the wheel while still enjoying the luxuries and state-of-the-art tech of a Rolls-Royce.

A bulk of Rolls-Royce clients are those whose primary objective is uncompromising comfort, with sportiness and sharp handling lower on the priority list. While models like the fully electric Spectre II keep the driver in the centre of the overall experience, comfort remains a core attribute. On the other hand, Bentley is renowned for making models that focus on spirited driving as much as comfort. Models such as the two-door Continental GT series and even the four-door Flying Spur sedan are good examples of sporty Bentley cars.
