Rolls-Royce’s first electric car will soon be a reality. A model with which the popular British firm will begin its transition process to sustainable mobility.

rolls royce continues to work at full capacity in the development process of its first electric car. The popular super-luxury car manufacturer is ready to start its unique transition to sustainable mobility. A transition that will begin when the arrival at the dealerships of the new Rolls-Royce Specter. The new Specter will play the role of Rolls-Royce’s flagship in the field of electrification.
Thanks to our spy photographers and the numerous advances offered by the brand itself, we have been closely following the development of the Rolls-Royce’s first electric. Once again, the new Specter has been hunted in broad daylight. However, and unlike previous sightings, we have the opportunity to look inside for the first time.
Spy photos of the new Rolls-Royce Specter
The brand has moved its “Southern Europe” to carry out the all-important summer tests. You should not be surprised if you are along the Mediterranean coast and you come across a prototype of the new Specter sporting the characteristic camouflage used by Rolls-Royce with a double motif. On the one hand, to promote the model and, on the other hand, to prevent its final design from being revealed.
Beyond this issue, which is not trivial, our photographers allow us to peek into the cabin. What will we find if we take a look inside the new Spectre?
Unfortunately and although it was predictable, the camouflage makes an appearance. However, despite the fact that a good part of the cabin is covered, there are certain components that have been left uncovered.
We have on the one hand the multifunction steering wheel with a three-spoke design. It is also sensed a fully digital instrument cluster combined with a media screen of generous dimensions. The new Specter will have a double screen system, one for the instrumentation and the other for the infotainment system, with the aim of creating a digital and connected environment.
Rolls-Royce Specter, the natural substitute for the Wraith
On the other hand, one can clearly see the ventilation outlets with a circular design and, just below them, the air conditioning module. A module in which the physical controls are still present. Something to be thankful for taking into account the times.
The new Specter will be positioned as the natural replacement for the Wraith in the Rolls-Royce range. In the bowels of the vehicle there will be two electric motors, one on each axis, to have a total power of 500 kW (680 hp). Having an engine on each axle will have all-wheel drive. The autonomy will be around 600 kilometers
according to the WLTP cycle.
The debut of the long-awaited electric Rolls-Royce will take place in the coming months. What’s more, the brand itself confirmed at the time that the commercial launch of the Specter will be in 2023.
