Since Nikhil Kamath is a billionaire, it is obvious that his vehicle garage will be full of some exotic automobiles. This includes cars like the Audi A6, Porsche 718 S Convertible, a vintage Rolls Royce and Bentley and more. He is clearly a fan of vehicles from all eras. Interestingly, he also owns the Ather Energy 450X Apex. It is an electric scooter which is among the most popular EVs in the country. This could be the outcome of the fact that Nikhil has been quite bullish on the EV sector in the last few years.
