What is it?
The new Rolls-Royce coupe model: the Spectre. It’s priced and positioned between the Cullinan SUV and the Phantom flagship in the Rolls-Royce hierarchy (so expect to pay upwards of £330,000 after tax), but this is much more than a niche-filler – it’s a sign of things to come for the double-R brand.
By the end of the decade, every single Rolls-Royce will be fully electric. The Spectre is the first battery-powered model to carry the Spirit of Ecstasy on the prow of its bonnet.
It looks enormous…
The Spectre is a truly immense coupe. That glinting grille is lower and wider than a Phantom’s Parthenon-esque façade and the corners of its bonnet taper gently downwards instead of standing as upright as a bearskin-topped guardsman, but these nods to slippery aerodynamics don’t diminish the gravitational presence this mighty two-door generates.
What are the specs?
Sitting on a Cullinan-related aluminium platform that’s been adapted to fit a 102kWh battery between the sills (making it 30 per cent stiffer as a result) the Spectre is powered by twin motors. The rearward one develops 255bhp, and the front motor adds 480bhp.
Rolls claims the total power developed is equivalent to 576bhp, with 664lb ft of torque at your disposal. Enough to haul three tonnes (well, 2,890kg if you’re counting) of leather, wood and lithium-ion from 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds. The top speed is ‘sufficient’, you’d imagine, at 155mph.
