Default The new Rolls Royce

Rolls Royce Wraith






• Elegant fastback design hints at dynamic prowess of the most powerful Rolls-Royce ever: 624 bhp/465 kW, 800 Nm from 1,500 rpm : 0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds (0-62 in 4.6)
• Debut of Satellite Aided Transmission. A technology that uses GPS mapping data to ensure the correct gear is always pre-selected for the road terrain ahead
• Voice activated connectivity augments effortlessness – the ‘on-board valet’
• Canadel Panelling sweeps through a sumptuous, contemporary and yacht-like interior cabin

I'll stick with the phantom, this thing just looks like another "we need to enter this market" entry putting possible profits above making something new and unique.

The car selecting the gear based on GPS data about the road ahead sounds ridiculous to me. More like something to brag about than something anybody could want.

But hey, as long as it has one of those slots for your official RR umbrella...

I see they hired the guy who does the calvin klein fragrances commercials.
Honestly I'm unimpressed. What about this car is lightyears ahead of other cars? Just buying name nothing more.
