Spectre [Hot!] Rolls-Royce 'Spectre' EV

How is the sales numbers for the Spectre? I heard that the sales are low. Wich would be a shame, EV is perfect for a Rolls, since I would believe engine noise is not so important for their customers. And not only is it silent, but EV is also smoother so the ride is more comfortable as well. If I was buying a Rolls I would buy this, no doubt.

Shame about the drivetrain.

The platform is the same Alu spaceframe as all the other RR models, so there's always this chance they give people some actual choice and put the V12 in......

Here's hoping.

Casio is a better watch in terms of primary function, a Rolex more desireable

I think it's a good model for testing an EV drivetrain. Quiet and smooth power delivery suits the nature of the brand. This is not the type of car that people buy to pop the hood anyways or rev at car meets. Furthermore more, as an EV it's cost efficient to lease as a business expense. This is not feasible for the V12 models.

Who leases a Rolls Royce and then worries about cost? Yes they should offer a V12 version for people with money who are uninterested in EVs. Rolls Royces absolutely do have their hoods popped on the lawns at various events for the super rich. Seeing a V12 is far sexier than talking about a battery pack.

Haha, good one. Cost effective and RR.
But anyways, it's not even that. A Spectre and Ghost are priced very similarly at around $5k per month in the U.S, the Spectre even being slightly more expensive overall.
