Introducing the Black Badge Spectre, the most powerful Rolls-Royce in the brand’s storied history. It combines a record 659 hp of power and 792 lb-ft of torque with a bold aesthetic and innovative Bespoke options.
The Black Badge Spectre embodies the rebellious spirit of the marque’s Black Badge clients. It’s a motor car that is ‘intense, immediate, and precise,’ making it perfect for these bold individuals. To tailor Black Badge Spectre’s performance, the brand’s engineers analyzed anonymized data from thousands of miles driven by existing Black Badge owners. The results revealed a preference for short bursts of intense power, an insight that shaped the car’s two cutting-edge powertrains.
The first innovation is an Infinity Mode, which activates the full 659hp power by pressing the Infinity button on the steering wheel. On the other hand, the second innovation, Spirited Mode, is engaged by simultaneously pressing the brake and throttle. This temporarily amplifies the torque to 792 lb-ft and accelerates the car from 0-60 mph in just 4.1 seconds.
The Black Badge Spectre’s chassis has also been refined to match its formidable power while delivering the signature Magic Carpet Ride. The steering wheel is enhanced for greater precision, the roll stabilization is adjusted to minimize body roll in corners and provide more feedback, and dampers are upgraded to improve stability under acceleration and braking.
Apart from its performance and remarkable driving experience, the car stands out with its new Vapor Violet exterior. Inspired by the ‘80s and ‘90s neon club culture, this deep black-violet is contrasted by an Iced Black hood. The new 23-inch five-spoke forged aluminum wheels complement its bold presence, available in an all-black or part-polished finish.
Like all Black Badge models, the Pantheon Grille surround, double ‘R’ badge of honor, Spirit of Ecstasy, and exterior accents are finished in a signature dark finish, signaling the car’s noir identity. A new Illuminated Grille backplate is introduced on the Spectre, available in four options: Forge Yellow, Charles Blue, Tailored Purple, Chartreuse, and Turchese. This vibrant illumination can extend into the interior via innovative Illuminated Treadplates.
The inside of the Black Badge Spectre also receives a bold treatment. The Illuminated Fascia, which comprises over 5,500 stars across a Piano Black sky, now incorporates the Infinity symbol. The same symbol is stitched into the leather ‘Waterfall’ section, separating the rear seats, further marking the Spectre’s Black Badge identity. Framing the fascia is a complex Technical Fiber surface featuring a diamond-shaped weave made from carbon and fine metal thread on top of a black Bolivar wood base.
Black Badge Spectre also masterfully blends expert craftsmanship with advanced digital innovation via the SPIRIT operating system. This system allows clients to curate the instrument dials with five striking color themes, allowing individuals to tailor the interior to their distinct style.
Pricing for the Black Badge Spectre starts at $490,000. For more information, visit the brand’s website.
