Beyond their expansive business dominion, the Ambani family has cultivated a distinctive cultural capital — one rooted in aesthetics, heritage, and innovation. Nowhere is this ethos more evident than in their automotive collection, a portfolio of over 170 vehicles drawn from the world’s most prestigious marques. For the Ambani family, the automobile serves as a vessel of expression: merging performance, prestige, and the timeless allure of craftsmanship into a singular narrative of modern luxury.

And as the legacy endures, there is something to be said for the Ambani succession, a kind of quintessential inheritance that is primarily shared between father and son. Given Mukesh Ambani’s revered assemblage of luxury automobiles, his son Anant Ambani continues the legacy. And now taking after his father’s discernment for automotive excellence, Anant’s palate reflects a pursuit for innovation, sustainability, and modern aesthetics, whilst remaining rooted in the family’s enduring devotion to automotive craftsmanship.

At the apex of Anant’s collection sits the Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII Series II Extended, affectionately known as the Star of India. Cloaked in a striking shade of orange, it is a modern homage to its 1934 predecessor once owned by the Maharaja of Rajkot, embodying nuances of royal heritage and meticulous craftsmanship. Its commanding presence reinforces Rolls-Royce’s cultivated reputation as the ultimate emblem of prestige and artistry.
The Phantom’s counterpart, the Drophead Coupe, exudes a freer, sunlit grandeur, merging bespoke coach-building with contemporary serenity. Together, they epitomise the crown jewels of the Ambani garage, capturing the very essence of dignified opulence that remains beloved among elite circles.
