The estimated cost of Boat Tail is £20,000,000 ($28,400,000). Its previous record was held by the Bugatti Voiture Noire (€16.5m/$20.2m), but this new record-holder is the Rolls-Royce 2017 coachbuilt Sweptail (£10m/$14.2m).
The new Rolls-Royce Boat Tail is the most costly automobile ever made. It’s a technical feat in its own right. It’s more than just a mode of transportation thanks to a gorgeous picnic set in the back that expands at the push of a button, and it takes design cues from nautical themes. Even though it may sound tacky, picture a picnic scene that was built for the Cote d’Azur over the course of four years and cost $28 million.
Why was this car ordered? Rolls-Royce only reveals that the “patrons” are a high-profile couple in the art and business worlds. As the company stated earlier this week, “their desire was to create a response to a life of hard work, success achieved, and celebration required.” The Rolls-Royce Boat Tail seems like it would be perfect for a family holiday trip.
According to the announcement, the two most popular colors among the customers were blue and excellent champagne. They needed a refrigerator in Boat Tail to store champagne at a consistent 6 degrees Celsius.
According to Rolls-Royce, these two are as powerful as the duo rumored to be Jay-Z and Beyonce. They’ve been enjoying yachts, champagne, and the color blue ever since they had their daughter Blue Ivy. It’s believed that Beyonce and Jay-Z commissioned this incredible vehicle because all of the custom touches reflect the couple’s taste. Rolls-Royce has been silent about the matter.
Jay and Bey have a combined net worth of $1.9 billion, which means they can easily afford a luxurious car in which to enjoy a picnic.
