Rolls-Royce’s foray into electrification with the Spectre has garnered significant attention since its launch a year ago. This silent behemoth, the brand’s first electric luxury cruiser, has captured drivers and critics alike, with some boldly proclaiming it the pinnacle of automotive craftsmanship today.
While the electric powertrain might seem an unlikely fit for a brand synonymous with hushed opulence, it proves a harmonious match. The Spectre’s dual electric motors deliver a silent, yet potent 567 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque, propelling the nearly three-ton grand tourer from zero to sixty mph in just four and a half seconds.
Despite its impressive acceleration, the Spectre prioritizes comfort and refinement over outright speed. With a range of 320 miles on a full charge, it’s well-suited for weekend escapes but falls short of intercontinental journeys.
Clocking in at over $420,000 before dealer markup and customization, the Rolls-Royce Spectre commands a hefty price tag. This electric newcomer shares its platform with the Phantom, Ghost, Cullinan, and Boat Tail, but with a silent electric drivetrain replacing the Phantom’s powerful V12.
Personalization options and a vast array of wheels, like the glossy black Anrky RF-177s pictured here, ensure exclusivity you’re unlikely to encounter another Spectre exactly like yours. This white Spectre’s contrasting orange interior embodies coastal cool, offering a luxurious and silent escape wherever you roam.
