The Rolls-Royce Spectre is a full-sized luxury electric grand tourer manufactured by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. The Spectre was formally launched in Napa Valley, California in 2023. The first deliveries of the car were made in the last quarter of 2023.
It is Rolls-Royce’s first electric vehicle (EV) and rides on the same platform as the Phantom and Cullinan.
Overview
The Rolls-Royce Spectre has an EPA range of 264 miles (425 km), and WLTP range of 321 miles (517 km). It has a drag coefficient of 0.25, making it the most aerodynamic production model Rolls-Royce has ever built.

The Spectre has a redesigned version of Rolls-Royce’s signature bonnet ornament, the Spirit of Ecstasy. Rolls Royce says the flowing robes of the ornament were reshaped to be more realistic and are lower, making the ornament more aerodynamic. The new ornament stands 83 mm (3.3 in) tall, compared to the predecessor’s 100 mm (3.9 in), and bringing it closer to the earlier examples. The redesigned ornament will appear on future Rolls Royce models.
History
In September 2021, Rolls-Royce announced the Spectre and confirmed that testing had commenced. On 18 October 2022, the marque unveiled the Spectre through its social media channels. The Spectre follows a long-time tradition at Rolls-Royce of giving their models supernatural monikers.
The Spectre was launched at a press event at Napa Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area during the summer of 2023. Emma Begley, Rolls-Royce Director of Global Communications explained that the reasoning for the location was California’s status as a luxury hub, and the US being the largest market for Rolls-Royce. She notes that Napa was also a symbolic choice: “This is the place where history and the old order of the wine world have been rewritten… you can make a fabulous Rolls-Royce without our V12 in front of it.
A single custom commissioned variant called the Spectre Semaphore was unveiled at the 2024 Monterey Car Week. The car is named after its special Semaphore Yellow paint, with the colour being inspired by the varied terrains of California.
Series II
On 2 June 2026, Rolls-Royce announced Spectre Series II, introducing a suite of technical and creative enhancements to the marque’s landmark super-coupé.
