Rolls-Royce Builds World’s Most Expensive Car going for $13Million

The Sweptail

At roughly $3million, over N5billion, the Bugatti Chiron has emerged as one of the most expensive production cars to ever reach showrooms.

Starting at the front, the Sweptail’s grille is larger than any car’s of the modern era, milled from solid aluminum before hand-polished to a mirror finish. The registration number certainly won’t change on this one, while the crystal Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament was lifted straight off Rolls-Royce’s 103EX future concept.

Newsmakersng learnt that Rolls-Royce unveiled the one-off custom-built car called the Sweptail today.

From the side, to keep the lines as clean as a sleek yacht, Rolls-Royce managed to wrap the bodywork under the car with no visible boundary to the surfaces, preparing your eyes for the main attraction that is of course the Coupé’s swept-tail back.

At a reported price of nearly $13million, it is believed to be the most expensive new car ever commissioned.

Take a look at the interior:

The Sweptail’s single-piece panoramic roof is one of the largest and most complex pieces of glass ever put on a car. Framed by polished aluminum rails, it allows you to look at “generous quantities of polished Macassar Ebony and open-pore Paldao” inside the cabin. Like, a small exotic forest’s worth:
