Alternately, the combustion-powered 7-Series is also worth considering in that budget.
I want to buy a chauffeur-driven luxury car for my parents. My budget is between Rs 1.25 crore and Rs 1.75 crore, and my sole priority is comfort.

Autocar India says: If you can stretch a bit more for the BMW i7 electric, it is the best luxury car, period. The i7’s refinement, ride quality and back-seat experience are outstanding. Alternatively, you can look at the combustion-powered 7 Series, which is brilliant as well. However, if these cars are beyond your budget, then a much cheaper and very good option is the Mercedes E-Class. You can opt for the base E200, which is not only well within your budget but will also leave you with something to spare. Or, if other members of your family like driving and want a sporty experience without compromising on the back-seat comfort, the more expensive E450 (also within your budget) is a great choice.
