Rolls Royce has released over the week-end detailed information on the Rolls Royce Ghost, including a new image gallery. The Rolls Royce Ghost is powered by a 6592 cm3 V12 twin turbo engine developing 563 hp at 5250 rpm and 780 Nm of torque at 1500 rpm. With this engine under its bonnet, the Rolls Royce Ghost is able to get from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds and up to a limited top speed of 250 km/h (detailed Rolls Royce Ghost specifications after the jump).

 Little was seen of the new car, codenamed RR4, until the spring of 2008, when Rolls-Royce released the first official sketches. The styling was instantly recognisable as a Rolls-Royce, although less traditional than previous models. At the time Chief Designer, Ian Cameron, said, “The RR4 has a more informal presence than the Phantom models with a greater emphasis on driving. In design terms this is expressed through its slightly smaller dimensions, yet with powerful, purposeful proportions. It is a true and uncompromising Rolls Royce in every sense.”

“Nothing should distract from the pleasure of driving Ghost. Nothing does.” says Helmut Riedl, Engineering Director. It is a simple pleasure, offering a seemingly endless surge of power when the throttle is pressed down.
The V12 engine remains whisper-quiet even when accelerating – Ghost’s occupants will only notice the scenery pass at a quicker rate. Engineered to grip the road at all times, it creates a more dynamic drive and the famous Rolls-Royce ‘magic carpet ride’ for driver and passengers.
It’s a true Rolls-Royce driving experience – from the authority driving position you get a commanding view along the Silver Satin bonnet, past the Spirit of Ecstasy to the road ahead.

 Inside, Ghost is refined and cosseting. Entering and exiting is both effortless and graceful – the low sill height means you step ‘onto’ rather than ‘into’ Ghost. The unique rear-hinged coach doors open to 83 degrees adding an extra sense of theatre for the rear passengers.

 Once inside, you are greeted by a simple yet contemporary interior with large expanses of soft full grain leather, natural wood veneers and Blenheim wool carpets. The cashmere-blend roof lining adds to the sense of openness and space, enhanced by the optional Panorama sunroof. It’s like being cocooned in your own convivial private sanctuary that leaves you relaxed and unruffled after the longest journey.

Rolls-Royce  CEO Tom Purves said the Ghost name is fitting for the new model because it evokes a sense of “adventure and technical innovation,” as well as “flair and style.” The latter elements shouldn’t be an issue, as the Ghost will share the Goodwood plant’s paint, wood, and leather workshops with the Phantom (vehicle assembly will be handled by a separate production line). Stay tuned for more details closer to the unveiling.
