The Rolls-Royce Spectre has been a long time coming. In fact, it has been in the works since Mr Rolls and Mr Royce started the company. In 1900, Charles Rolls prophesied that the future of cars was with an electric engine, and now in 2023 it really is.
Designed to be a Rolls-Royce first and an electric car second, the Spectre delivers the same luxury experience as the existing range. It promises a new audience of younger leaders, visionaries and entrepreneurs to the brand, as well as EV owners looking for a more luxury product and of course, existing Rolls-Royce owners, wanting to go electric – and invest in a piece of history.
