New Osho Baba Buys Mercedes Maybach EQS 680
The Indian godman, philosopher, and mystic Rajneesh, or Osho as most people know him, lived his teenage years in the city of Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. Now, years later, one of his disciples who runs an ashram in the city has bought a Mercedes Maybach EQS 680 luxury electric SUV. This particular vehicle is the first one in Jabalpur.
The video showing the delivery of Osho’s disciple’s Mercedes Maybach EQS 680 has been shared on Instagram by Hamara Jabalpur on their page. It starts off with the creator mentioning that Swami Prem Paras, who is a spiritual guru and follower of Osho, has become the first person in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, to own a brand-new Mercedes Maybach EQS 680 luxury electric SUV.
In the clip, we can note the black-colored EQS 680 being delivered to the spiritual guru at his residence in Bhedaghat, Jabalpur. It can be seen that the home also has a massive white dome in which Swami Prem Paras performs meditation with his disciples. The clip also shows the elaborate delivery, with the guru and his family cutting a cake with the Maybach logo.Who is Swami Prem Paras?
Swami Prem Paras, who has bought this luxury electric SUV from Mercedes Maybach, is the founder of Osho Home Ashram, located in Bhedaghat, Jabalpur. He has taught meditation in Europe for 10 years completely free of cost. The spiritual guru has also worked on a few movies and TV shows in Bollywood as well and has now returned to his hometown.
Currently, the Mercedes Maybach EQS 680 is the most premium luxury electric SUV on sale from the brand. It is offered in two variants — 680 and Night Series. The former is priced at Rs 2.4 crore, and the latter is priced at Rs 2.63 crore.
This luxury SUV comes equipped with the signature Maybach grille, tiny Maybach logos on the ends of the front bumper, classy-looking dual-tone paint options, and 22-inch alloy wheels. It also comes with connected LED headlights and taillamps.
On the inside, the EQS 680 comes with a triple-screen display, two 11.6-inch displays for rear seat occupants, reclining, heated, ventilated, and massaging rear seats, a 15-speaker Burmester 4D surround sound system, active ambient lighting, Nappa leather seats, and powered curtains, along with many other creature comforts.
As for the electric powertrain of this SUV, it gets dual motors (one at each axle). Together, this setup produces 658 bhp and 950 Nm of torque. Despite being a luxury electric SUV, which weighs a lot, it can do a sprint of 0–100 kmph in just above four seconds. As for the battery pack, it gets a massive 122 kWh unit, which provides it with a range of around 600 km on a single full charge.
Unlike other spiritual gurus, Osho, who became one of the most well-known gurus, embraced luxury and materialistic things. Of these, the one he was truly in love with was Rolls-Royce cars. At one point, after setting up his city called Rajneeshpuram in Oregon, he owned 93 of them. He even brought back eight of them to India.
