Someone may call this rating not entirely accurate, because there is no, for example, Maybach Landaulet, whose approximate cost fluctuates around $ 1,380,000. There was no place for the beautiful, unrealistically expensive Bugatti Galibier 16C. This is explained by the fact that only a few motorists all over the world can afford the above models, while the purpose of the list is to demonstrate cars, albeit luxurious, but in one way or another available for purchase and daily use.
Rating of the most expensive sedans in the world
10th place - Porsche Panamera Turbo cost about $ 132,600
They say about the model that she is, to put it mildly, an amateur. The corporate interior is more than laconic, there are no decorative elements in it, but the feigned beauty is replaced by the natural beauty - the finishing materials are only of the highest quality.
To whom this will not seem enough, as an additional option, you can order upholstery with genuine leather of any shade and manufacture. The more elongated center console in comparison with its predecessor has a touch screen and the ability to set the "climate" for rear seat passengers.
The dynamic performance is superior to almost all competitors. Especially interesting is the new Sport Plus mode, the activation of which leads to the opening of the dampers in the mufflers, which reduce the back pressure, which significantly increases power. If the dampers are closed, the engine is automatically turned off, which significantly saves fuel, for example, in a traffic jam or at traffic lights.
9th place - Maserati Quattroporte worth about $ 133,700
If you want the most stylish 4-door sedan with a Ferrari engine under the hood, then you can't think of a better Quattroporte. The fight for world domination is given to him playfully: a sports interior, a carbon steering wheel, huge 21-inch wheels that accelerate the car to 310 km / h, and overcome a hundred in just 5 seconds.
The increased wheelbase allows more space for passengers in the rear seats. The overall interior can be called minimalistic, masculine - only the information display and the climate control unit. And also the unchanging, recognizable, oval clock between the ventilation deflectors.
8th place - BMW 760Li worth about $ 137,000
"Big Brother" has appeared in the BMW lineup. Built on the 7 Series platform, it has a long wheelbase of 3210 mm, making it the largest vehicle in the family.
The model is impressive: an aerodynamic bumper with giant air intakes, 20-inch alloy wheels, original design of the rear-view mirrors and exhaust tips.
The magic of Bavarian style reigns in the cabin, expressed in a multifunctional sports steering wheel, virtual instrument panel, LED door sills and aluminum pedals. And the 6.6-liter engine, which consumes 12.6 liters of gasoline, coupled with an 8-speed automatic transmission, accelerates the colossus to a hundred in… 3.7 seconds!
7th place - Aston Martin Rapide worth about $ 199,950
A supermodel in the sedan world, he has a sleek radiator grille whose chrome accents showcase masculinity and rapacity. The doors open at a 12-degree angle upward and outward, protecting paint from scratches and chips when parking near high sidewalks.
Hidden under the bonnet is 558 hp, hand-picked, allowing the two-ton giant to travel a hundred kilometers in 4.9 seconds. This speed is dangerous for others, so the developers have sunk the engine, providing a special deformation of the hood, safe for pedestrians.
6th place - Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG worth about $ 201,150
This 12-cylinder 6-liter 630-horsepower twin-turbo engine has set unattainable standards for its segment. The sports suspension is equipped with an interesting Road Surface Scan feature that detects all cracks and creases in the road surface to prepare the chassis for new road situations. The tandem of a 5-speed gearbox and 19-inch wheels leads to such flawless movement in any weather and on any road surface that it makes the car justifiably expensive and of very high quality.
The interior design combines sensuality with the traditional Mercedes-Benz classics so beloved by car owners. The car exudes superiority over other brethren in all its appearance. This is emphasized by the deliberately voluminous radiator grille, polished chrome lamellas and, of course, the body stylized under the letter "A".
5th place - Bentley Continental Flying Spur SPEED worth about $ 202,500
Impressive car for a respectable person. Despite the substantial weight of more than 2.5 tons, it has inimitable grace, agility and speed. The sporty appearance of the interior is expressed in the design of the steering wheel and pedals, as well as in the aluminum trim of the gear lever. Although the car is not designed for large numbers of people, all of its seats are equipped with a massage function that works in several modes.
The impressive weight does not prevent the 4.8-liter 610-horsepower engine from sliding at a speed of 322 km / h. And adaptive cruise control technology, powered by radar readings, allows you to get the most out of your ride.
4th place - Rolls-Royce Ghost worth about $ 245,000
An amazing combination of severity and dynamism. The soothing silence of the cabin, umbrellas in the doors, a cooled box with champagne glasses make it incredibly luxurious and attractive.
But with seeming stiffness, the car is capable of driving at a speed of 250 km / h, "making" a hundred kilometers in 4.9 seconds. And its 6-liter, 604-horsepower twin-turbo engine works seamlessly with the 5-speed gearbox.
Passengers in the back seat will be no less comfortable, where there is a remote control for controlling all the equipment and multimedia systems available in the cabin, a monitor built into the back of the front seat and even a small table for work. If this is not enough, you can additionally install the function of massage, heating, minibar and lambswool rugs.
3rd place - Bentley Mulsanne worth about $ 295,000
A timeless classic that requires about 18 cowhides to upholster the interior and the wood pattern must be identical on the right and left sides. Particularly fastidious car owners will be allowed to independently choose any exotic wood and indicate the method of its processing. The interior is completely devoid of vulgar plastic - only sapphire glass, natural wood, leather, wool.
Thousands of craftsmen work on each instance, more than half of the work is done manually. For example, when welding a body, the seams must be so finely made that all the individual parts appear as one piece. This is why it takes 9 weeks for a unit to be released!
Well, a perfect car with a 6.75-liter 512-horsepower engine that propels the chic model to 300 km / h deserves a long wait.
2nd place - Maybach 57/62 worth about $ 366,000 - 506,500
Sales of this specimen are small around the world, possibly due to the discrepancy between the enchanting value and the filling.
Luxury and pathos flow throughout the entire appearance of the car: everything is in carpets and leather, but at the same time with electronic filling from the old versions. Is it a paradox or a flaw? 550 hp engine frankly taken from Mercedes and limited to 250 km / h.
Probably too stark the contrast between the closest relative of the S-class, with a complete lack of soul and atmosphere, and provided the car with a very epic failure in the market.
1st place Rolls-Royce Phantom worth about $ 408,000
Absolute perfection. Respectability, comfort, unaffordable luxury, dressed in high modern technologies.
Its creator has his own philosophy that one should always strive only for the best, fight for it and achieve it at any cost. Therefore, he put the maximum into his brainchild: high-quality interior trim, specially designed tires for the car, perfect noise insulation, a special body structure, LED headlights - everything so that even the richest man would give up the chauffeur and want to get behind the wheel of this handsome man himself.
