This isn't a concept. Rolls-Royce's first all-electric 'super coupé' is here—and it can be ordered now.
models but, as the Wraith and Dawn are no longer in the current model lineup stateside, Spectre is now the sole choice for those wanting a two-door Rolls-Royce.

As the Wraith and Dawn are no longer in the current model lineup stateside, Spectre is now the sole choice for those wanting a two-door Rolls-Royce.Despite the ability of electric motors to produce neck-snapping acceleration, Spectre’s 576 hp output—from motors on each axle—enables the car to cover zero to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds, almost identical to the Black Badge Ghost, with peak acceleration tuned to be imperious rather than violent.
As evidenced by the elegant and sophisticated aesthetic of the dashboard alone, Spectre is a Rolls-Royce first and an EV second.A conscious decision was also made not to chase range for its own sake. Spectre could have driven more than 300 miles on a single charge, but Rolls-Royce judged that a likely EPA range of 260 miles was sufficient for its customers, who, on average, cover fewer than 6,000 miles each year in their cars.
Rolls-Royce estimates that in its first full year of production, Spectre will account for a fifth of all the manufacturer’s sales.“If our customers really need to go further in a day without stopping to fast-charge, they have a lot of other cars to choose from, or a jet,” Dr. Mihiar Ayoubi, Rolls-Royce’s director of engineering, tells.
For Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Spectre is the initial step in the marque’s commitment to electrification and plan to replace its V-12 engines entirely within just eight years.The Honorable Charles Stewart Rolls, cofounder of the automaker, tried an early EV in 1900. “The electric car is perfectly noiseless and clean,” he said. “There is no smell or vibration. They should become very useful when fixed charging stations can be arranged.
