Pros Cons of Rolls-Royce Ghost

Pros

  • Extreme luxury
  • Powerful engine
  • Bespoke

Cons

  • Steep running cost
  • Expensive

Verdict

The Ghost is the most approachable Rolls-Royce. It’s the best way of getting introduced to and owning the Luxury brand. While for some it may still sound exorbitant, the saloon almost gives you the experience of the flagship Phantom at a much lesser cost. In a congested country like India, for those choosing the British brand, the Ghost comes across as the most sensible option.

Pros Cons of BMW 5 Series

Pros

  • Great Ride And Handling
  • Gets Both Petrol And Diesel Options
  • Premium Interior With Smart Features

Cons

  • Petrol Trim Only Comes In One Variant
  • Second-Row Not Good For 3 Occupants
  • Cabin Design Looks A Bit Dated

Verdict

The 5 series continues to impress with its dynamic capabilities but a more contemporary face and tech laden cabin has made the car even more appealing than before. It starts at ₹ 62.90 lakh for the Petrol version while the 520d is priced at ₹ 63.90 lakh. Top of the line 530d will set you back by ₹ 71.90 lakh (all prices ex-showroom). It is going up against the likes of the recently launched Mercedes E-class, Audi A6 and Jaguar XF.
