Rolls-Royce is preparing to introduce the Spectre, its first series-produced electrical auto. The large coupe is set up to make its global launching online tomorrow (Tuesday, October 18) at 8 a.m. Eastern, and also you can enjoy the livestream right here to obtain every one of the information.
Authorities information regarding the Spectre stay scarce; Rolls-Royce has done a good job keeping the EV under wraps. Official spy shots published by the British company in July 2022 recommend that the model will certainly use a futuristic-looking design, though it will stay well-known as a member of the Rolls-Royce variety, and also it will be the brand name’s most wind resistant car many thanks to a 0.25 drag coefficient.
Inside, the Spectre will certainly be mostly conventional Rolls-Royce fare. Among the exceptions is an electronic instrument collection.
Rolls-Royce kept in mind that it placed the Spectre via one of the most extensive testing program it has ever before subjected a brand-new design to; prototypes will certainly have covered over 1.5 million miles by the time deliveries begin. While that might sound like excessive, there’s a great deal to test: In addition to a battery-powered drivetrain, the Spectre features “141,200 sender-receiver relationships and also has greater than 1,000 functions and also more than 25,000 sub-functions,” according to the business, and also it will usher in a new suspension system efficient in disconnecting the roll bars.
Information such as horsepower as well as driving array will be introduced throughout the introduction. Among the numbers that we do know is that the 59-inch-long doors are the longest units ever before fitted to a manufacturing Rolls-Royce; rephrased, they’re virtually as long as a Smart Fortwo is large.
Tune in tomorrow to see the Spectre make its debut. Deliveries will begin in the fourth quarter of 2023, and also pricing hasn’t been introduced– though Rolls-Royce customers aren’t price-sensitive.
