Rolls-Royce Motor Cars yesterday unveiled its latest model Ghost Extended Wheelbase in Mumbai.The car will be available at a starting price of Rs30.5mn ($620,865). “Akin to the unique and spectacular Maharajah cars of the past, the current Rolls-Royce customers are commissioning our bespoke department to create contemporary motor cars as unique as their own fingerprints. This demand has led us to add more craftspeople to our bespoke team and to extend the manufacturing plant to accommodate this growth,” said Paul Harris, Asia Pacific regional director of Rolls-Royce.“The recent demand in India has contributed to strong performance in the Asia Pacific region as a whole. Our commitment to developing the brand in this highly important territory is underpinned by the imminent opening of a brand new showroom in New Delhi,” he added.The Ghost Extended Wheelbase will be built to order and is available in only limited numbers for 2011 until full production begins in 2012.
