As rolls-royce's first all-electric model, the Shining is destined to leave a strong mark in its brand family style.
Recently, a set of spy photos of Rolls-Royce Flash testing in the Arctic Circle was exposed on the Internet.
It is reported that the spy photo shooting location is located near the BMW Group's Arjeplog factory, 55 kilometers from the Arctic Circle, which is where the prototype of the electric vehicle is subjected to various assessments in harsh conditions, and the temperature in the area is only minus 40 degrees Celsius, which can test the vehicle's driving conditions on rough surfaces.
Although it is an electric vehicle, but like other Rolls-Royce models, the Shining will also be equipped with the Parthenon waterfall grille, while also retaining the classic "Celebrating Goddess", but the Celebratory Goddess will be redesigned with a lower wind resistance coefficient to accommodate the characteristics of electric vehicles.
From the outside, the Shining is the same as the Phantom, will adopt a two-door coupe shape, and make the iconic rear door open, it is worth mentioning that the Shining will use a 23-inch oversized rim, presumably the posture will be very powerful.
It is understood that due to the fundamental changes in powertrain technology, every detail of the product needs to be carefully considered before providing the product to the customer, so Rolls-Royce has designed the most demanding test project in history, with a total test mileage of 2.5 million kilometers.
Now that Arjeplog's testing is over, Rolls-Royce Shining has completed a quarter of its testing projects, one step closer to its official launch in the fourth quarter of next year.
In terms of power, the Rolls-Royce Flash may share the electric drive system of the BMW iX M60, which is expected to output a maximum of 610 horsepower, a peak torque of 1100 Nm, an acceleration of 100 km/h in 4 seconds, and an EPA range of at least 450 km, which will provide no less power performance than the V12 engine and smooth transmission characteristics.
