The absolute twaddle the Rolls Royce representative comes out with to describe normal things is really something to behold, I was expecting him to call the wheels “the circumference of motion”
What you have here is a Product Manager expressing the design language of the development process. To the uninitiated it sounds like pointy twaddle but for designers, this is exactly the sort of language that they have to live with.
From a comfort point of view, this is probably going to be one of the best Rolls Royces ever. The already existing ultimate comfort of the phantom, ghost etc., but with no engine sound or vibrations. This might be the quietest car in the world (in terms of inside noise).
Rolls-Royce customers don't just want a quiet ride. They appreciate the richness and symbolism that comes from the 12 cylinder engine too. In fact, a friend of mine who owns RR dawn black badge, used to cruise Dawn in dawn, enjoying the subtle v12 engine sound. In that sense, there should be additional follow-up to the v12 Engined model such as Dawn/Wraith
They had an opportunity to create the largest frunk in the world, for ultimate luxury applications, like a full wardrobe or bar, and they just left it an unaccessible void. Are they even pretending to be trying? Sure it will be comfortable, but a coupe looks with huge frunk would have been something. Now it's a comfy short range coupe. Big whoop.
The channel is excellent. The attention to detail, the enthusiasm that goes into each review, is impressively evident. I recommend anyone who hasn't signed up yet to do so. May those who bring quality content be valued.
Mr JWW I’ll give you a nod today. Your Presentation with Mr RR going over the car blew Top gear’s review out of the park. P.S I think it’s stunning, now of to rob a bank to buy one.
Electric for a luxury vehicle makes the most amount of sense in my opinion. With that said, in the US we are far behind on the infrastructure level for electric cars to be a suitable replacement for internal combustion engines. It's almost a scam here since not only 95% of the existing power grid is not capable of handling the new surge of electric vehicles but also the fact that more than 90% of electricity is produced via fossil fuels.
Was probably easier to predict an electric future for cars in 1900 than for example in 1950, since they were so much more common back then (not as in "they were super common", but they were a bigger deal back in 1900 than they were in 1950), and the first road vehicle to go over 100 km/h was a 1899 electric car as well.
Rolls Royce have done it again. Pinicle of V8 v12 and now electric power. All other automobiles are lesser when it comes to Rolls Royce. Well done gentleman/ladies in the fantastic project. Bravo James for yet another 1st class introduction.
Very good job the common design idea between the front grill and the rear taillights, really like that effort of matching the two sides of such an elegant car. 💡
WoW Wow WoW!!! What a beautiful design! I just Love the look 👀 and is a rolls too, what a car!! If I could afford one I would definitely buy two, one for me and my wifey. Love of!
That headlights like in the i7 is what ruined it for me. Everything else is very nice looking! I can't believe they did a beautiful job with the led stripe and then integrate the normal headlights so poorly. The Phantom was way more pleasing looking in that regard. I would get in black just to hide that thing!
Coefficient of drag has nothing to do with size. The drag coefficient does not describe the drag in an absolute term as it does not account for the surface.
@@manxman8008 A brick would have a higher drag coefficient than the Spectre, yes. But that means, in the same airflow, the drag force on the brick, relative to its surface area, will be higher than the drag force on the Spectre. Overall energy required to accelerate the brick to 100mph will be much lower, of course, because the brick is much less massive. It is not in any way LESS "draggy" than a Spectre.
The PR guy could have his own side channel describing normal everyday objects. Imagine a bin, or a door let alone a kettle! Whole new level of waffle unlocked.
honestly the rolls royce ev makes the most sense out of any c ar it adds to the experience by removing the combustion engine sound but for the others the engine adds to the whole experience
Mr JWW Absolutely Incredible Video I think the All new Rolls Royce Spectre looks absolutely incredible and I definitely agree that Rolls Royce finally has a Production Full EV considering that Rolls Royce strives to provide their Customers with the up most level of peace and luxury
Looks like an enema on wheels cobbled together by the left-over parts from a Wraith! And, that bilious multi-color interior with its fulsome seat logos. Classless!
You do realize most of the Mercedes lineup have very impressive drag coefficients, right? The new S-class has a coefficient of drag of 0.22, for example. And the EQS is 0.20. Further, their EQXX manages 0.17, which is just astounding. So, not sure what you're on about, but you should probably spend less time on RU-vid if you're this ignorant.
The Mercedes EQS has a drag coefficient of 0.20. At 70MPH with exactly the same engine, battery and weight the range of the Mercedes would be 1.25 times the range of the Rolls Royce (so if the Rolls has 500, the Mercedes would have 625)
"We've developed the worlds smallest orchestra" man, that Rolls dude knows how to talk his shit up. "This isn't an ordinary toilet roll, we like to call it the evolution of a circle, the circle signifies infinity and the length helps us to elaborate that this is infinity extended"
This car is designed for Roll Royce customers and they will love it. I think the design brief fulfilment is so much better than the Cullinan which has I might add dated hugely in just a few years.
The people that can afford this also can afford two of them with fast charging at home, so the chauffeurs will never feel the anxiety of current EV Real world range and charging infrastructure shortcomings. Yes it is beautiful and an experience that only the very top will enjoy. I’ll try to be happy with my lowly 911 and 348.
There are only three things I really really do not like about it. The headlights at the front. If they had been rectangular rather than the sill slope out from the grill. The tail lights are wayyyy too small for a car that size. The rear lights also remind me of the ones that were on the Jaguar XJ. The last thing. The boot opening. Way too small. Why not do the option of either what they have done or a full hatch which lifts the rear window. They could have put an internal window like they do with the cullinan.
Not quite sold on the front end, perhaps it’s the color but the hood/bonnet looks very rounded going down to the grille. The front fascia seems similarly less authoritative than I expected. Neither an elegant or regal look for such a long front end.
Electric car manufacturers are increasing the charging voltage to, for example, 800V to allow for faster charging. Two charging ports would be clumsy, and finding two free adjacent public chargers would be problematic at best.
The most important part they left out how big is the battery? Is it just 100kw/h like the rest ? Car manufactures love to skip over the fact that their range on EVs is trash. The max range can easily half if the conditions are unfavorable or if you drive quickly. The Taycan is empty after 45 minutes so is Tesla if you truly step on it. 200kw/h should be the bare minimum for high end cars.
I was blown away by the master magical design even though in my dreams the RR makes the epic model I like to drive once in my life the day will be born for the movement let the dream can be real
im so dissapointed with the cheepness of the rear camera, thats very disapointing RR you could have done better even my mercedes has a camera that drops doun out of the tail and not seen in normal driving, apart from that it is a stunning lookiing x
