The world's most expensive car is named Arcadia after the mythical 'Heaven on Earth' of Ancient Greek mythology.

The identity of the customer who commissioned the car has not been revealed but Rolls Royce said the buyer is an an international entrepreneur with homes dotted around the globe.

The motor giant said the customer envisaged "a serene space" and "a refuge from the complexities of their business life."

Designers at the luxury car brand took inspiration from the customer's favourite places, such as Singapore, Indonesia, Britain and Vietnam.

The owner will also be able to use an advanced 3D virtual reality (VR)headset to view the motor car as it would appear in specific locations around the world.

Rolls-Royce said: "Coachbuild designers invested many months examining and interrogating the client's tastes in everything from clothes and furnishings to food and travel destinations.

"Other family members, notably the client's daughter, also become engaged with the process.

"When the final design was ready, the client's wider family were invited to review it: all agreed that it perfectly captured the client's aesthetic and character.

"The process revealed the client had a far more modern outlook than they realised, defined by lightness, the use of natural materials and a clear passion for precision."

The Roller is powered by a hulking 6.6-litre twin turbo V12 engine linked to an 8-speed automatic gearbox that shifts the beast from zero to 60mph in around five seconds. Software limits the speed to around 155mph.

The company said the dashboard clock set in the wood veneer is said to be 'the most complex Rolls-Royce clock face ever created'.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars new chief executive Chris Brownridge said the Arcadia Droptail is the 'pinnacle expression' of the British luxury car company

Mr Brownridge added: "This motor car is deeply connected to the client's personality and preferences, and in capturing their character we have been empowered to make inspiring design, craft and engineering statements that show the world our ambition, and our unparalleled abilities."

The motor follows the La Rose Noire and Droptail Amethyst. All three motors are priced at £25m.

La Rose Noire was commissioned by the head of a leading French fashion dynasty.
