An unofficial range of 320 miles and 585hp. We have all the details on the first all-electric Rolls-Royce right here 👇
Charles Rolls would’ve approved, it would seem. In 1900 he said, ‘The electric car is perfectly noiseless and clean. There is no smell or vibration. They should become very useful when fixed charging stations can be arranged.’ There’s still a debate about whether the fixed charging stations are ‘useful’ enough, just a century-and-a-quarter later, but his vision of an electric future has arrived: the first all-electric Rolls-Royce is nearly upon us.
Anyway, enough of the past, what do we know about the future? Well, read the press pack and you will discover that the Spectre’s design has been ‘drawn from worlds far beyond automotive, including haute couture, modernist sculpture, nautical design, tailoring and contemporary art.’ And to cut through that, what we see here is a replacement for the Phantom Coupé, but in styling terms, it looks more of an evolution of the Wraith. More fastback than two-door saloon bodied.
The Spectre's wheels are 23-inches and the doors are the usual suicide design and hinged at the rear. The jewel-like vertical taillights come in a colourless tone, which allows the owner to select the shade they wish to match the exterior. That’s when they’re not lit, obviously. Roll-Royce says the panel that houses the taillights is the ‘largest single body panel ever produced for a Rolls-Royce, which extends from the A-pillar to the luggage compartment.
