Actor Arjun Kapoor is an ardent petrolhead and has had quite a few exotics in his garage from time to time. And now, the actor has become the newest celebrity to add the Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 uber-luxurious SUV to his garage. The car was recently delivered to Kapoor by a Mumbai-based dealer. The flagship Maybach model was launched earlier this year at a whopping price of Rs. 2.43 crore with only 50 units allocated for 2021. All cars were spoken for even before prices were announced in June this year. The automaker though is taking bookings for the second batch with deliveries scheduled in 2022. Incidentally, his co-actor and friend Ranveer Singh also brought home the Maybach GLS earlier this year.

Kapoor add the Land Rover Defender 110 to his garage in April this year
This is Arjun Kapoor's second SUV purchase in 2021. The actor bought a Land Rover Defender 110 in April this year. While the Defender sits at the rugged end of the luxury SUV segment with a storied history of its own, the new Maybach GLS 600 sits on the extreme end of the same spectrum. It's unclear if Kapoor still holds the keys to his Maserati Levante that was his older daily driver.
