Rolls Royce Launches India’s Most EXPENSIVE Electric Car – Spectre – Priced At 7.5 Crore

Rolls-Royce has officially introduced its inaugural electric luxury car, the Spectre, in the Indian market, priced at Rs 7.5 crore (ex-showroom). This ultra-luxury electric vehicle (EV) coupe, globally revealed in October 2022, has already seen its first delivery in India before the official launch. Let’s delve into the key details of this opulent creation.

Staying true to the Rolls-Royce tradition, the Spectre showcases bespoke design elements that evoke a sense of awe. The illuminated trademark Rolls-Royce grille at the front creates a delightful ambiance during nighttime drives.

The aerodynamically designed Spirit of Ecstasy ornament contributes to the Spectre’s remarkable drag coefficient of 0.25cd. The vehicle rides on impressive 23-inch alloy wheels and features subtle and neat vertical taillight elements.

Step inside the Spectre, and you’ll be greeted by a starlight liner on the door pads, adorned with a staggering 4,796 softly illuminated stars—an exclusive touch originally reserved for Rolls-Royce car roofs. The passenger-side dashboard panel includes an illuminated ‘Spectre’ nameplate, seamlessly disappearing when the car is not in use.

The interior of the Spectre boasts a fully digital driver’s display, utilizing Rolls-Royce’s latest ‘Spirit’ software platform. For the co-driver, a digital display presents the opportunity to showcase digitized art or a personalized welcome animation, as chosen by the owner. True to the Rolls-Royce ethos, customization is key, allowing owners to choose their preferred color theme, trim, and even have their name embroidered on the seats.

Under the hood, the Spectre’s electric motor packs a punch, generating 593 PS and an impressive 900 Nm of torque. This powertrain delivers a WLTP-claimed range of 520 km, showcasing the efficiency of the electric vehicle. Despite its substantial weight of nearly 3 tonnes, the Spectre achieves a remarkable 0-100 kmph acceleration time of just 4.5 seconds.

Positioned in the Indian market between the Cullinan and the Phantom, the Spectre has carved its niche with no direct rivals. It serves as an enticing electric alternative to other luxury cars like the Bentley Flying Spur and Bentley Continental.

The introduction of the Rolls-Royce Spectre marks a significant stride in the electric luxury car segment in India, offering a unique blend of opulence, cutting-edge technology, and sustainable mobility. As the automotive landscape evolves, the Spectre stands as a symbol of Rolls-Royce’s commitment to luxury and innovation in the realm of electric vehicles.

While the Spectre has just been launched in India, deliveries of the super luxury electric car commenced over 2 months ago. A Chennai-based builder Baashyam Yuvaraj ushered in the Rolls Royce Spectre into his garage in the middle of November 2024.
