Kalki 2898 AD'S AI-powered Car Bujji: Know Its Cost, Weight And Other Details

Writer and director Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD, starring an ensemble star cast of actors Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan and others has set the cash registers ringing at the box office. Besides the brilliant acting, storyline and other aspects, one element that dominated the headlines is the AI-powered car called Bujji. A futuristic vehicle, this car has been reportedly built on a massive sum of Rs 7 crore and weighs 6 tonnes. The makers have taken help from the homegrown manufacturers Mahindra and Jayem Automotive to build this futuristic vehicle. When it comes to the overall size, the AI-powered vehicle flaunts an impressive length of 6075 mm, a height of 2186 mm and a width of 3380 mm.

Is Bujji a real vehicle?

Both Mahindra and Jayem Automotive left no stone unturned to build the Bujji as real as they could. According to the reports, this car features custom-built 34.4-inch hubless rims at the front, while the rear section has been treated with an impressive single wheel. This makes it easy for the Bujji to move freely in any direction.

What is its size and power?

The makers of Bujji also have used a special canopy at the driver’s side, which makes it appear like some futuristic aircraft. According to the reports, the car is powered by a robust 47kw battery setup. This setup churns out a maximum power of 126 bhp and 9800 Nm of peak torque.
