The first 100% electric Rolls Royce, named Spectre, has completed its testing phase and will soon begin production.
Only diamonds are eternal, and a legendary brand like Rolls Royce must, despite its social status or prestige, adapt to keep up with the times. Monarchs tweet on social media, and Rolls Royce shifts to electric.
At the same time, few automotive brands are as well positioned as Rolls Royce to venture into zero emissions, with its models typically used for short daily trips. Evidence of this is the English company’s communication regarding the end of its testing phase for Spectre, its first 100% electric vehicle in 119 years of existence. During this rigorous exercise, conducted in extreme temperatures (-40° to +50°), covering 2.5 million kilometers over 50,000 hours of driving, Spectre simulated “the equivalent of 400 years of average Rolls Royce use.”
Wholly owned by BMW, Rolls Royce has benefited from the German automaker’s electric expertise, which includes a range comparable to Spectre in the form of the massive i7 luxury sedan. The technological sharing makes sense, even if the electric performance boasts utopian figures with a consumption of only 21.5 kWh per 100 km in the WLTP mixed cycle. The promised range would be 520 km, but this aspect is clearly secondary with a Rolls Royce.

Deliveries of the Rolls Royce Spectre will begin in the fourth quarter of 2023. Merry Christmas!
