The legendary British car maker has just showcased the world premiere of their new Wraith model that will take on Bentley. The new model will be the most powerful and dynamic Rolls-Royce in history. At its heart lie hallmark Rolls-Royce attributes of luxury, refinement and hand-craftsmanship, but the new model from the world’s pinnacle super-luxury marque also presents a unique character defined by power, style and drama.
In car looks phenomenal and its sweeping fastback design gives the car its unique character. Bold lines, tension in the panels and a raked rear screen evoke the image of a world class athlete poised in the starting blocks. On the inside it is no different from a luxurious palace as the interiors reveal a sumptuous interior complete with softest Phantom-grade leathers and expanses of wood called Canadel Panelling. Named after the famous cove in the South of France where Sir Henry Royce and his design and engineering teams spent their winters, this contemporary and tactile finish sweeps through the interior, cosseting four occupants in a space bathed in light and warmth.
The Wraith is also a mean machine with power delivery that is effortless, but dramatic, thanks to a V12 engine married to 8-speed automatic ZF transmission. 624bhp is available to the driver while the 0-100kmph sprint is achieved in 4.4 seconds. There is also 800Nm of torque, while a wide rear track, shorter wheelbase and lower roof height further contribute to the most powerful, involving driving experience of any Rolls-Royce in history.
For over a century a Rolls-Royce has featured technologies designed to support occupants discreetly, delivering a peerless driving experience epitomised by the term ‘effortlessness’. In every Rolls-Royce these assist the driver when called upon, but are prepared to return without fuss to the background when no longer required, and in the Wraith there are a vast range of technologies to assist both the driver and the passengers.
