When it comes to Bollywood megastars, one of the first names that comes to everyone’s mind is Salman Khan. The actor, known for his superhit movies like “Dabang,” “Sultan,” and “Ek Tha Tiger,” is not an automotive enthusiast. However, this does not mean that he drives any normal cars. The actor nowadays is spotted being driven around in a bulletproof Nissan Patrol, but a few years ago, he was seen riding around in supercars and superbikes across the city of Mumbai. If you are one of those people who want to know which vehicles Salman Khan owns, then you have come to the right place.
Bulletproof Nissan Patrol
As mentioned above, at the moment, Salman Khan is regularly spotted arriving at places in his newly imported Nissan Patrol SUV. The special part about his SUV is that it is completely bulletproof. This SUV has been privately imported by him as recently he has been getting a lot of death threats from gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Salman’s bulletproof Nissan Patrol is finished in a shade of pearl white. This SUV comes powered by a 5.6-litre V8 making around 405 bhp and 560 Nm of torque.
Bulletproof Toyota Land Cruiser LC200
Prior to making his transition to the Nissan Patrol, the actor was spotted in a bulletproof Toyota Land Cruiser LC200. This SUV was also finished in a shade of pearl white and was mostly accompanied by a few of his security vehicles. The standard Land Cruiser LC200 comes powered by a 4.4-litre V8 engine making around 262 bhp of power and 650 Nm of torque.
Range Rover Vogue Autobiography
Before shifting to bulletproof vehicles, Salman Khan’s choice of wheels was a Range Rover Vogue Autobiography. Salman actually bought this luxury SUV for his mother Salma Khan. However, she was never seen in this SUV, and it was Salman Khan who mostly used this luxurious SUV. It boasted his signature number plate of “2727”. At the time, Salman Khan paid around Rs 1.82 crore for this SUV. It came powered by a 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine that produced 254 bhp and 600 Nm of torque.
Audi RS7
Apart from the big and bulky SUVs, Salman also has a thing for fast sedans. The actor also owns a bright Red Audi RS7 sports sedan in his collection. This sedan has one of the most beautiful sloping roof designs and looks extremely gorgeous. It was also an extremely quick car as it came powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine that made an impressive 555 bhp of power and 700 Nm of torque. It could do 0-100 kmph in just 3.9 seconds.
Previous generation Range Rover
Apart from the Range Rover Vogue, the actor also had a two generations old Range Rover as well. This particular Range Rover became especially more famous in the country as Salman Khan constantly tweeted about how it always broke down. One of the most viral moments of this SUV came when Salman Khan shared a picture of his Range Rover being loaded onto a flatbed truck while he continued his journey in an auto-rickshaw. These tweets became a nightmare for the Land Rover brand in India.
Mercedes Benz GL
Before getting into a tumultuous relationship with the Range Rover brand, Salman Khan was usually seen being driven around in a Mercedes Benz GL Class SUV. This was the German automotive giant’s flagship SUV in India. It came powered by a 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine making a maximum power of 258 bhp and 619 Nm of torque. It came with a 7-speed automatic transmission and an AWD system.
Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 43 Coupe
For a brief while, Salman Khan was also seen being driven around in a Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 43 Coupe SUV. This particular car was gifted to him by the “King Khan of Bollywood” Shahrukh Khan. This super-quick sporty SUV came powered by a 3.0-litre V6 engine that produced a maximum power of 362 bhp and 520 Nm of torque, which came mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission.
W221 Mercedes Benz S-Class
Another one of the sedans that made its way into Salman Khan’s garage was a W221 Mercedes Benz S-Class. This particular sedan was also finished in a shade of pearl white. One of the most common engine choices for this luxury sedan was its 3.0-litre V6 engine that made 235 bhp and 490 Nm of torque.
Suzuki Hayabusa
Salman Khan was chosen as Suzuki’s first brand ambassador in India. Since then, the actor has always owned Suzuki superbikes. One of the most notable bikes from his collection is his red Hayabusa. The actor has even ridden this bike in a few of his films as well. The Hayabusa comes equipped with a 1.3-liter liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine. This motor is capable of delivering a power output ranging from 173 bhp to 197 bhp, depending on the generation of the bike.
Suzuki Intruder M1800R
Apart from the famed Hayabusa superbike, Salman Khan also bought himself a striking blue-colored Suzuki Intruder M1800R. At the time, this was one of the most popular cruiser motorcycles. The Suzuki Intruder M1800R came equipped with a 1.8-liter V-twin engine. It delivered a maximum power of 127 bhp and 160 Nm of torque. Power was efficiently transferred to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and a driveshaft mechanism.
BMW X6
Before being gifted the Mercedes Benz AMG GLE 43 Coupe SUV, Salman Khan was also gifted its rival which came before it – a BMW X6. This X6 was apparently gifted by a BMW dealer from Gujarat for the inauguration. This coupe SUV came powered by a V8 engine which made an impressive 408 bhp and 680 Nm of torque.
Lexus LX
Salman Khan’s Lexus LX needs no introduction. It is one of the most controversial cars that he has ever owned. Salman Khan was accused of a hit and run in his SUV. However, this was not the only Lexus LX owned by the star. Over the years he has owned a number of different Lexus LX SUVs.
