Erling Haaland Adds $460K Mercedes to Car Collection

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has added a rare Mercedes-Maybach Virgil Abloh to his already extensive luxury car collection, reportedly worth approximately £400,000 (around 5 crore Rupees). The acquisition further elevates the estimated value of his seven-car garage to nearly £10 million (approximately 20 crore Rupees), according to multiple reports.

The limited-edition vehicle, one of only 150 produced worldwide, was designed in collaboration with the late Virgil Abloh, Louis Vuitton’s artistic director. Haaland was spotted driving the car in Alderley Edge, England.

Unique Design and Features

The Mercedes-Maybach boasts a distinctive two-tone color scheme, featuring a jet-black roof, bonnet, and boot contrasted with sandy-hued sides. Abloh’s signature logo is prominently displayed on the centre console, rear cushions, headrests, door sill panels, and a specially designed digital display, incorporating unique coloured borders and brand insignia.

The car is powered by a 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged V12 engine, capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, with a maximum speed of 155 mph. It also features all-wheel drive as standard.

Haaland’s Growing Car Collection

• Aston Martin DBX 707 (£350,000 / approximately Rs 4.4 crore)
• Rolls Royce Cullinan (£300,000 / approximately Rs 3.7 crore)
• Porsche 911 GT3 (£160,000 / approximately Rs 2 crore)
• Range Rover Sport (£120,000 / approximately Rs 1.5 crore)
• Audi RS6 Avant (£120,000 / approximately Rs 1.5 crore)
• Mercedes AMG-GLE Coupe (£90,000 / approximately Rs 1.1 crore)

Haaland’s penchant for luxury cars has become well-known, and this latest addition underscores his appreciation for both performance and exclusivity. The Maybach represents one of the final custom S-Class models produced through the partnership with Abloh, making it particularly desirable among collectors.

BritPanorama reported that Haaland, who earns a weekly salary of £500,000, effectively spent a significant portion of his earnings on the vehicle. The purchase highlights the financial rewards enjoyed by top-tier footballers and their lifestyle choices.

On the pitch, Haaland recently secured the EFL Cup with Manchester City and remains a crucial player in their pursuit of the Premier League title. His form continues to be pivotal for the club’s ambitions this season.

The Mercedes-Maybach Virgil Abloh is a testament to the collaboration between the automotive world and high fashion, and Haaland’s acquisition places him among a select group of owners of this exclusive vehicle.
