We feel there is rarely anyone in India, who would have not heard about Thackeray family. They are a well-known family in Maharashtra and almost every member of the family holds a lot of respect among people. Uddhav Thackeray was the first member from the family to be the Chief Minister of the state however due to various political reasons, he could not complete his term in the office. Even though, he is not the CM, Thackeray family still plays an important role in Maharashtra. Here is a list of luxury cars that Thackeray’s use.
Uddhav Thackeray
Mercedes-Benz GL-Class
The former Chief Minister of Maharashtra used to move around with a lot of security when he was the CM. Uddhav Thackeray used to travel in a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class luxury SUV for his inter-city travel.

Raj Thackeray
Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Raj Thackeray owns a Mercedes-Benz S-Class. This is the same W221 model which we have mentioned above. He is often seen driving the car himself. Raj Thackeray has other businesses which allow him to go for such expensive cars.
Toyota Land Cruiser
Toyota Land Cruiser is a very capable and an expensive SUV from Toyota. As of now, Toyota does not officially offer this SUV in India. The older generation of the SUV was quite popular among politicians for its imposing look and comfortable interiors. Like any other Toyota, Land Cruiser is also known for its reliability and that makes it a popular choice among buyers who can afford it. Just like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Raj Thackeray has been spotted driving the Land Cruiser multiple times. The cars that we have mentioned here on the list are a bit old and there is even a possibility that the family might have bought new cars or upgraded to new more expensive vehicle.
