Rolls-Royce Spectre 2023 Full Car Specifications

The Spectre does enough of what a Rolls-Royce should do to fulfil its brief, with peerless cabin quality and exemplary refinement. It doesn’t quite escape some traditional EV pitfalls, particularly weight and its effect on the ride, but until Bentley and Range Rover launch their own pure-electric models, the Spectre is pretty much in a class of one. We’re not surprised there’s already an 18-month waiting list.

More than 120 years after Charles Rolls predicted a future for electric propulsion in cars, the time has finally arrived for the company that still bears his name to venture down that path. Rolls-Royce will go completely electric by the end of the decade – and now we’ve had our first opportunity to sample the vehicle that starts the ball rolling: Spectre.

Said by Rolls execs to be the spiritual successor to the Phantom Coupé, the new arrival is a large four-seat, two-door coupé. The brief from Rolls’ existing clients, we’re told, was for a vehicle that was a Rolls-Royce first and an electric car second. And at just shy of 5.5 metres long, and featuring the widest ‘Pantheon’ front grille ever fitted to a Rolls-Royce, the Spectre certainly cuts a striking shape. It’s imposing, but graceful with it – in more subtle hues, at least.
