India’s First Bentley Mulsanne Taxi
This post comes from autojournal_india on Instagram. It captures a video showcasing the iconic luxury saloon on the roads of Pondicherry, Tamil Nadu. This has to be among the most expensive taxis in the country. Note that we had previously also reported a Rolls Royce Phantom being used as a rental in Bangalore, Karnataka. The caption of this Instagram post calls it a taxi. In reality, this is just a temporary number plate for a new car. It is shocking to see this content creator no even bothered to check the number plate before calling it a taxi. That is how such videos can often mislead people into believing something full of falacies.
