As a ceiling brand in the automotive industry, Rolls-Royce cannot escape the baptism of electrification.
A few days ago, according to foreign media reports, Rolls-Royce's first pure electric model has begun road testing, and the new car is named Spectre (Shining). It seems to imply that electric vehicle travel is like a silent and motionless ghost. According to the previous rolls-royce brand planning, the first pure electric model Spectre will be officially unveiled before the end of 2023, and the Rolls-Royce brand will begin to fully transform into electrification in 2030.
However, judging from the pictures currently exposed, Rolls-Royce shows everyone only a camouflage car painted with slogans, and there is a lot of thought on the clothes, and even a small Easter egg: the big slogan at the front of the car is actually the classic design quote of the founder Sir Henry Rice, Who it does not exist---DESIGN IT, "If not, create it".
Although the celebratory goddess is still there, judging from the flat front shape, the iconic Parthenon elements may be cancelled or presented in another more compatible with the technology of electric vehicles, of course, this is just our guess, because it is indeed difficult to see the design details from the drawings. However, as a rolls-Royce two-door pure electric sports car, we may be able to think more about the shape of the phantom?
There are also people on the Internet who worry that the Shining is the oil-to-electricity version of the Phantom, but in fact, this concern is purely worrying, in 2017, Rolls-Royce launched an exclusive aluminum architecture, which can be compatible with fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles.
For the content of parameters, you can refer to the Phantom New Energy Edition, that is, the 102EX equipment, two electric motors installed on the rear subframe and lithium batteries to form a power system, the maximum output power is 290 kilowatts, and the peak torque is 800 Nm. Compared with the 338 kW and 720 Nm of the 6.75-liter V12 engine of the fuel version, it is believed that in a sense, it can replace the surging power and smoothness and calmness of the V12 engine.
In any case, in the future, after the introduction of this Rolls-Royce pure electric model into China, it will become another gospel for the rich to avoid fuel indicators, and due to the inherently maintenance-free nature of electric vehicles, the cost of using a top luxury car will also be greatly reduced. But for the real rich, will they worry about being able to afford a car?
