“India occupies a unique and highly meaningful place in the
story of Rolls-Royce, past, present and future. We see a new
generation of clients who bear a deep-seated appreciation for
Bespoke craftsmanship and the depth of our heritage in equal
measure. Oberoi Concours d’Elegance is an event that mirrors our own
values of excellence and rarity, and it is a profound pleasure to
engage with the Indian classic car community and meet so many
enthusiasts and owners who continue to preserve the legacy of our
motor cars. Their passion ensures that the spirit of Rolls-Royce
remains as vibrant today as it was a century ago.”
Irene Nikkein, Regional Director Asia-Pacific, Rolls-Royce
Motor Cars
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars reflects with satisfaction on
its inaugural participation at the Oberoi Concours d’Elegance,
recently held at The Oberoi Udaivilas, Udaipur. This debut marked a
significant moment in the marque’s history in India, a region that has
been intrinsically linked with the spirit of Rolls-Royce for over a century.
Held for the second time, Oberoi Concours d’Elegance brought
together some of the world’s rarest and historically important
automobiles and motorcycles, many owned by Indian royalty and private
collectors and preserved over generations. The event’s close affinity
with Rolls‑Royce was reflected in a dedicated ‘Pre-War Classics –
Rolls Royce’ class, a period which not only celebrated the marque’s
historic presence in India but also underscored the country’s unique
role in shaping Rolls-Royce’s legacy.
Set against the ethereal backdrop of Lake Pichola, the
Rolls-Royce lounge on the sprawling garden lawns of The Oberoi
Udaivilas served as a meeting point for brand enthusiasts and some of
the world’s most discerning collectors, celebrating the pinnacle of
automotive excellence in one of the region’s most breathtaking settings.

In a compelling bridge between the marque’s storied past and its
next chapter of timeless luxury, Rolls-Royce displayed Black
Badge Spectre at the event. Spectre fulfils a prophecy made by
Charles Rolls in 1900, who predicted that the electric car would be
“perfectly noiseless and clean”. As the world’s first ultra-luxury
electric super coupé, Spectre is increasingly recognised by clients
and collectors alike as a motor car of lasting significance.
Spectre’s status as a future
classic is also underpinned by exceptional engineering. Conceived
with the same commitment to longevity and resilience as every
Rolls-Royce, it delivers what many have regarded as the perfect
execution of an electric powertrain.
Rolls-Royce’s presence at the Oberoi Concours d’Elegance
reflected the growing importance of India within the marque’s global
strategy, both as a historic heartland and as a dynamic,
forward-looking luxury market. The country emerged as the highest
growth market in the Asia-Pacific in 2025, achieving double-digit
growth for four years consecutively. As Rolls‑Royce continues to
evolve – marrying timeless craftsmanship with technological
progress – the company remains dedicated to meaningful engagement with
markets and communities that value permanence, provenance and Bespoke expression.
Black Badge Spectre: WLTP: Power consumption: 2.6-2.8 mi/kWh /
23.8-22.2 kWh/100km. Electric range 306-329 mi / 493-530 km. CO2
