Cristiano Ronaldo, the renowned Portuguese footballer, has amassed a remarkable car collection worth over N20 billion (£19 million). As one of the highest-paid athletes in the world, Ronaldo has invested his fortune in some of the most extravagant and expensive automobiles available.
The crown jewel of Ronaldo’s collection is the Bugatti Centodieci, valued at N9.9 billion (£9 million). This impressive car features an 8-liter W16 engine, with specialized models boasting 1600hp, making it even more powerful than the Chiron. The Centodieci can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.4 seconds and has a top speed of 236 mph.
Ronaldo’s collection also includes the Range Rover Velar, a luxury electric SUV worth over N55.2 million (£50,200). With a decent acceleration rate of 0-62 mph in 5.4 seconds, this car is a perfect fit for the prolific striker and father of five.
During his time with Manchester United, Ronaldo arrived in style driving an Aston Martin DBS worth approximately N220 million (£200,000). This Aston Martin DBS Superleggera convertible boasts a 5.2-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine, reaching a top speed of 211 mph and accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds.
In 2017, Ronaldo splurged on a silver Bugatti Chiron, spending well over N2.3 billion (£2.15 million). The Bugatti Chiron is a high-performance automobile capable of reaching speeds of 260 mph and going from 0 to 60 mph in under 2.5 seconds. Rumors suggest that Ronaldo also acquired a third Bugatti, the Bugatti La Voiture Noire, known as the most expensive car in the world valued at N10.4 billion (£9.49 million). However, this car was reportedly purchased by an unidentified buyer.
Gifts from Ronaldo’s partner, Georgina Rodriguez, have also added to his collection. On his 35th birthday, Georgina surprised him with a customised Mercedes G-Wagon Brabus, worth a reported N660 million (£600,000). In December 2022, she further gifted him with a Rolls Royce worth N275 million (£250,000).
Among Ronaldo’s other prized possessions is a Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport, worth N1.87 billion (£1.7 million). This car was acquired to celebrate Portugal’s victory in Euro 2016. Ronaldo also owns a Lamborghini Aventador (N286 million/£260,000), Rolls Royce Cullinan (N363 million/£330,000), and a McLaren Senna (N1.1 billion/£1 million).
In 2017, Ronaldo purchased the Ferrari F12 TDF, valued at N385 million (£350,000), and an affordable Chevrolet Camaro worth N38.5 million (£35,000).
Ronaldo’s car collection showcases his love for luxurious and high-performance vehicles. From Bugattis to Ferraris, he has an impressive arsenal of cars that reflect his extravagant lifestyle. It is evident that Ronaldo enjoys collecting these masterpieces, each contributing to his N20 billion (£19 million) car empire.
