Which luxury cars do the Ambani family own? Bentley, BMW, Mercedes, Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini … that’s just the beginning
The Ambani family has everything they can possibly dream of – riches, power, luxury. And, of course, such splendour includes the ultimate of all status symbols – a luxury car collection in a garage spanning more than a mile.
In case you missed it: business mogul Mukesh Ambani is India’s richest man and the 13th richest person in the world. He is chair and largest shareholder of India’s most valuable company, Reliance Industries Limited.
The Ambanis’ most pricey car is the exclusive German-customised armoured BMW 760i, valued at US$1.4 million. The registration fee for it alone cost US$251,000. The family also owns a Maybach 62, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Bentley Flying Spur, a Rolls-Royce Phantom and more.

Here’s the story behind eight of the Ambani clan’s most prized – and pricey – motors.
1. Maybach 62, worth US$730,000
2. Mercedes-Benz S-Guard
Another Mercedes in the Ambani fleet is the Mercedes Maybach 660 Guard, a modified, armoured version of the Maybach S600, valued at nearly US$1.5 million. Another of their armoured vehicles, this one is powered by a 6.0-litre, V12 engine, but is electronically restricted to a top speed of 190km/h (118mph). The family bought this safety vehicle in 2015, becoming the first owners in India.

3. Bentley Bentayga
In another first for India – which the Ambani family loves to do – Akash drives a bright green Bentley Bentayga. Valued at a bit more than US$1 million, this fast, midsize, five-door luxury crossover SUV can hit 301km/h (187mph).
4. Bentley Flying Spur
This US$453,000 Bentley is the new version of the Continental Flying Spur. Powered by a 6.0-litre, W12 engine, this four-door luxury saloon is a variant of the Bentley Continental GT coupé.

5. BMW 760Li
Another safety vehicle for the Ambanis, this BMW has a bulletproof coating, which cost them US$1.2 million. And if the tires get damaged (or shot out), all will be well. They are self-supporting, run-flat tires. Because when you’re worth billions, safety costs millions.
6. Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé
This Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé is valued at US$1.2 million and is rare – only six exist in India. The engine is powered by a 6.75-litre, V12 engine that can reach 241km/h (150mph) in five seconds. In 2015, it was the most expensive Rolls-Royce model in its class, and several Drophead Coupés were used in the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Summer Olympics.
7. Rolls-Royce Cullinan
Named after the Cullinan Diamond – the largest gem-quality rough diamond ever found – this US$980,000 Rolls-Royce Cullinan is the most expensive of its kind available in India. It’s a full-sized luxury SUV and both the first Rolls SUV and the brand’s first all-wheel-drive vehicle.

8. Lamborghini Urus
The Ambanis love their SUVs. And so it makes senses that they would own a Lamborghini Urus – another first to India. Valued at US$425,000, this special SUV is powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged engine. The unusual name is inspired by Urus (or aurochs), the ancestor of modern domestic cattle. But, cows are respected and considered sacred in India, so this special vehicle is a more than appropriate addition to family’s fleet of luxury cars.
