25 Units Of Rolls Royce Ghost Will Roam Around Indian Roads In Q2 2010

Rolls Royce GhostRolls Royce recently launched the new Ghost model in India and received an overwhelming response from the India customer as it has already received 25 booking for this new launched baby ghost.

RR Ghost will be handcrafted according to the tastes of the buyers and it would take around 4 – 5 months for its final delivery. The company will release these Ghosts outside the roads by the Q2 2010. The company also hopes to sell around 50 to 60 Ghosts in India every year.

The Ghost is matted with a unique 6.6 litre twin-turbo charged V12 engine and a new 8-speed automatic ZF gearbox.  Peak power output of 563bhp at 5250rpm is combined with a maximum torque of 780Nm at only 1500 rpm. The result is that Ghost is able to reach 60mph in 4.7 seconds / 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds, and an electronically governed top speed of 155mph / 250km/h.

The Ghost’s new drive train significantly improves Rolls-Royce Motor Cars class leading position on CO2 (317g/km) and fuel efficiency (Combined consumption: 20.8 mpg / 13.6 l/100km).

“Ghost is a more informal design that broadens the appeal of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, combining refinement, new technology and contemporary style. It bears all the hallmarks of other Rolls-Royce cars, using the finest wood and leather materials and employing manufacturing standards which are no different to Phantom. Ghost will be built-to-order.” said by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Asia Pacific Regional Director Colin Kelly.

“We have seen a healthy level of interest around Ghost in India, which started earlier this year during the 200EX world tour. Ghost has appealed to a broader set of Indian buyers, which has further strengthened the high demand that we are experiencing around the region despite the current economic climate.” said by Brenda Pek, general Manager for South & East Asia Pacific.

“We sold 20 cars from our Phantom family last year in India. This year, sales will be lower than last year thanks to recession, but in 2010 we hope to sell about 75 units. Of this anywhere 40 to 60 units will be the Ghost,” Colin Kelly, regional director (Asia-Pacific) said.

“This wood is called the Malabar variety and our preferred clientele like the straight-grain finish the Malabar wood exudes,” says Dan Balmer, product manager of Ghost.
