Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is delighted to announce the appointment of Navnit Motors as an authorised dealer for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in Ahmedabad. A new showroom will be fully operational by the end of the year.

The move into Ahmedabad adds to the current dealership network in Mumbai, New Delhi, Hyderabad and Chandigarh.

Paul Harris, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Regional Director, Asia Pacific said: “The business in India maintains its course for sustainable growth. The appointment of a dealer in the West Indian state of Gujarat is strategically important – allowing us to service an economically significant new area of India and to meet increasing demand.”

Herfried Hasenoehrl, General Manager, Emerging Markets Asia added: “In 2005, when Rolls-Royce returned to the India market after an absence of 50 years, Navnit Motors was our launch partner in Mumbai. Today, we cross a new frontier with Ahmedabad standing together with a proven and trusted partner who is one of the most experienced luxury motoring retailers in India. The addition of Ahmedabad completes another step in our strategic plan for India, and is a prime choice for Rolls-Royce thanks to its administration and fast development.”

Navnit Motors, established in Mumbai since 1985, manages several luxury brands across five cities in India. Sharad Kachalia, Director, Navnit Motors said: “We are very proud to be able to represent Rolls-Royce – the pinnacle of automotive brands – in Ahmedabad. The city is acknowledged to be a new hub for super luxury motoring in India, and we are most committed to delivering the level of service expected by our discerning clients.”

Rolls-Royce Ghost Spotted

Luxury on wheels bends to the Ghost!!!

We spotted the luxury on wheels, the Rolls-Royce Ghost. The Ghost is a full luxury saloon from Rolls-Royce Motor Cars which started production in 2010, designed by Ian Cameron and engineered by Helmut Riedl, who led the development of the larger Rolls-Royce Phantom.

The Ghost uses a 6.0Litre twin-turbocharged V12 engine (now displacing 6.6 litres), which generates 563bhp, producing 780NM (580 ft-lb) torque with ZF 8-speed automatic transmission. The engine pulls out the ghost in the car to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in less than 4.7 seconds, and jets a top speed of 249 km/h.

The interior space of the Ghost creates a kind of numbness in you, since you only see the best of the best products used in setting up an interior, which makes it one of a kind. The touch of the interior is filled with soft full grain leather, natural wood veneers and Blenheim wool carpets, which creates it a paradise.

The Ghost is built on a steel Monocoque chassis and features the Dynamic Stability Control and Active Roll Stabilisation to make the pleasure of driving as precise as a feather fall. 

The Ghost is one of Rolls-Royce's technology advanced vehicle ever. To keep the occupants and pedestrians safe it uses features like the Night Vision System, Head up Display, Lane Departure Warning system and Active Cruise Control.

Rolls-Royce: It's a true Rolls-Royce driving experience - from the authority driving position you get a commanding view along the Silver Satin bonnet, past the Spirit of Ecstasy to the road ahead.
