Amitabh Bachchan family & its LUXURIOUS car collection: Range Rover to Rolls Royce

Land Cruiser

Amitabh Bachchan is known for his love of Toyota and Lexus SUVs. He previously owned a LX-branded SUV from Lexus but now can be seen driving a Land Cruiser SUV from Toyota. The Land Cruiser used by Big B is an LC200, which uses a 4.7-litre V8 diesel engine that cranks out 262 bhp and 650 Nm of torque.

Range Rover

One of the latest acquisitions of the Bachchan family garage is the Range Rover Autobiography LWB, the flagship SUV from British marque Land Rover, worth around Rs. 2.8 crores. The SUV uses a 4.4-litre turbo diesel engine that produces 345 bhp and 740 Nm of torque and is capable of taking five adults through any terrain in absolute luxury.

Rolls Royce Phantom

The Rolls-Royce Phantom, considered to be the Gold standard for luxury cars, was gifted to Mr. Bachchan by director Vidhu Vinod Chopra who wanted to show his appreciation for Big B after working with the veteran actor in Eklavya.

While the Phantom used by Big B has spawned a successor, it still commands attention. Mr. Bachchan Sr. Has been seen in the back of his roller on numerous occasions commuting to his latest project shoots and events. The Phantom VII uses a 6.75-litre twin-turbo V12 engine that silently sends 460 bhp and 720 Nm of torque to the rear wheels.

Bentley Continental GT

The Bachchans were apparently gifted the Bentley Continental GT by a politician friend. Both senior and junior Bachchan men have been seen behind the wheel of the massive British grand tourer.

The Bentley Continental GT is available with two engine options. The first, a 4.0-litre twin turbo V8 produces 521 bhp and 680 Nm of torque. The second and more powerful engine option is a 6.0-litre twin-turbo W12 engine that produces a massive 626 bhp and 820 Nm of torque. Both Bentleys used dual-clutch gearboxes to send power to all four wheels.

Audi A8L

The Bachchan parivar also owns Audi’s flagship luxury sedan, the A8L in its garage of envy-inducing cars. Most commonly seen being used by many Bachchan clan members, including Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, this Audi uses a 4.2-litre V8 cranking out 350 bhp and 800 Nm of torque.

2018 Maruti Suzuki Ciaz facelift will not only be updated on the outside but will now come with a new 1.5-litre petrol engine, along with better features in the cabin. All this at a price below that of the Honda City and Hyundai Verna.

New 2018 Maruti Suzuki Ciaz facelift is set to be launched in India next month and is rather a highly anticipated launch of the year for two reasons. One, it has tasted segment dominance before and had been awaiting a refresh to gain back traction and two, it will be the most affordable car in its segment. According to our sources, the new Ciaz facelift will be priced below Rs 7.9 lakh (ex-showroom), which means it will undercut Honda City and Hyundai Verna’s price tags. The bookings for the new Ciaz have been opened and an official launch will take place in August.

Maruti Suzuki Ciaz will not only be the lowest prices sedan in the segment, the facelifted version will be improved in many ways. The Ciaz had had the least powerful engine compared to its competition, now though it will come with a new petrol engine that will bring its power figures closer to the City and Verna. Besides this, the Ciaz will also be a lightweight sedan which will work in its favour.

The upcoming 2018 Maruti Suzuki Ciaz facelift has been tweaked on the outside and will now come with sleeker projector headlamps with LED DRLs (daytime running lights). At the back, the tail lamps have also been refreshed. The overall design and styling of the new Ciaz is more premium compared to the outgoing model.

On the inside, the new Maruti Suzuki Ciaz facelift has been given a thorough update with a new instrument cluster and a touchscreen infotainment system that now supports both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

A major change in the new Maruti Ciaz facelift is the engine options. A 1.5-litre petrol engine will replace the existing 1.4-litre unit, and will also feature SHVS technology which should help it deliver a decent fuel efficiency. The other option will be the same 1.3-litre diesel engine, along with the start-stop function.

Select Maruti Suzuki dealers in the country are accepting bookings for the new Ciaz facelift at Rs 11,000. When launched, the Maruti Ciaz facelift will compete with the likes of Hyundai Verna, Honda City and Skoda Rapid.
