Dubai: Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Dubai, AGMC debuted Spectre, the marque’s first fully-electric motor car. The world’s first ultra-luxury electric super coupé has been introduced as Rolls-Royce prepares to build only electric cars by the end of 2030. Spectre is Rolls-Royce’s most powerful and most aerodynamic car ever created and the first ultra-luxury electric super coupé in the world.
Its design reinvents iconography, taking inspiration from contemporary luxury yacht concepts. “Engulfed in supple and inviting leather, the interior draws inspiration from the timeless mystique of the night sky, with an intricate show of shooting stars and an illuminated fascia with over 5,500 stars, a feature which took over two years to develop,” it said in a statement. The Starlight Doors incorporating 4,796 softly illuminated ‘stars’ are available for the first time on a series production Rolls-Royce.
