Happy 4th of July everyone! Hope you all had a safe and relaxing holiday with your friends or family! This is literally the most expensive car we have ever tested so far, and while going electric makes sense for Rolls-Royce, we will still undoubtably miss the old twin-turbo V12, just for the bragging rights of having 12-cylinders under the hood. We'll be curious to see if the company eventually does a more powerful Black Badge variant down the road.
Yeah, I don’t know. I’ll just try talking on what I can afford but if I had the option to get, would I drive now in an electric dependent system I would completely opt out. I don’t want to be confined and reliant upon fucking charge stations on something a little bit more Analogous and have character as well as timeless technology as a combustion engine I’m all set with driving with essentially is An iPod
In what scenario would you take a two door RR 500 miles continuously? They know their clientele, and if you really need to do this frequently, the Wraith and Phantom Coupe are just as good
@@kellyoubrejr544 yes, but if this RR is 535K(over half million), then it needs at least 1000HP, if Tesla can do it, RR should be able to do it. With this high price, it deserves all the necessary features, I am surprised to find out that it doesn’t have ventilated seats for 2nd row passengers.
@@blackwhirlwind1245 the whole design of this car isn’t to be the fastest, i’m sure it could go quicker if it was made for it. 4.1-4.3 seconds is nothing to slouch at especially for a car that weighs about the same as a Escalade. i somewhat agree with you on it having cool seats with the backseats but then again, majority of people aren’t sitting in the back of coupes apart from kids maybe. it’s quick enough especially the weight cause remember they could always make it slower. who am i to debate about it cause i can’t afford something like that yet
Clearly, you don't pay attention to cars at all if you think this was going to be around $200k. Rolls would ban you from their showroom for insulting them like that.
Okay I was never interested in super luxury vehicles, but that starlight headliner..... Of course it doesnt have a glass roof; it's a Rolls. Perfection.
the one question that kept popping up in my head is “how much is this going be to fix it?” lol at that price point i guess the owner just swipes their card. Cool car regardless and an even better video!!!😊
Crazy , this makes the lucid lineup look like a bargain . 2 sapphires for this thing is insane . Or a saphire , c8z06 , a cyber truck , and whatever else youd want on top maybe a small house deposit
I know I’m just a peasant with no money, but just wanted to say that less than 300 miles of range for a vehicle that starts at $422,000 is crazy to me. Like you can literally so easily put in any size battery pack for that price and still make a massive profit (Edit: EPA cycle, not WLTP)
@@johnkraft6053 with that money, this car is a piece of art rather than an appliance. I doubt anyone would be toad-tripping this vehicle frequently. I think it's more than sufficient to commute to and from the county club 😄

I didn't think it was the replacement for the Wraith. I thought it was the Phantom coupe it was replacing. I think there are going to be more models coming, including the small suv Rolls.
Development started about 10 years ago when they started the Architecture of Luxury platform. A new platform is very expensive and is amortized over a number of years and vehicles. But Rolls Royce only sells 6,000 vehicles a year, so each has to carry some portion of the platform cost. Also while they use the i7 powertrain, they also have to adapt it to their goals. For example, they attenuate the acceleration from rest for occupant comfort which BMW doesn't do. They also do a lot of sound testing with respect to noise levels and frequency of the noise they allow to enter the cabin. iDrive had to be re-skinned. And they also order expensive components like the metal switch gear, leather, and wood paneling in small quantities which doesn't allow for bulk discounts. All of that leads to an expensive final product for the consumer. The i7 is probably 80% of the car for 20% of the cost. But that last 20% of the car is meaningul for RR buyers and the extra 80% cost is not.
This should have near 1000 hp for an electric Rolls Royce...i would never buy an electric Rolls. Heavier and worse handling. At least it looks gorgeous unlike the I7
I’d certainly take the Cadillac _CELESTIQ_ over this because the design is more opulent to me, but this is the most beautiful Rolls Royce they build right now imo.
It can be customizable does not mean they can do anything your heart desires, and it definitely does not mean it's on Rolls Royce level. GM does not even have the craftsmanship nor the craftspeople to build something on an Aston Martin or Bentley quality, let alone Rolls Royce
MADE IN GERMANY! ROLLS ROYCE WELDS THE ALUMINIUM BODY TOGETHER. JAGUAR LAND ROVER GLUES AND RIVETS ITS ALUMIUM BODY TOGETHER. WHICH VEHICLE IS MORE HIGH TECH DO YOU THINK?
I wish they made the wheels on the passenger side look like that had forward motion as does the driver’s side wheels…if ur paying that much for a car i want ever detail ironed out
Its a pretty nice ride but $535,475 I will be to scared to even test drive this bad boy to the 7-eleven and back. I can totally see the insurance premiums for this car each month. Listen, I will be totally physically fit because I will literally park way out there away from everybody to prevent any marks. Yes, I will be fussing at the young and old if their door just open for them to get out haha. I'm like WATCH IT! Nope, this car is too much stress for me haha. Good media commentary guy.
Why do they have to put that hideous grill on every car ruining what could’ve been a great looking front end? Looks like a 70s Cadillac with that on there
Much of the drivetrain is close to a direct lift from the i7. But the quality of materials and attention to detail are on a whole different level. Plus it's built on the Architecture of Luxury platform that has underpinned Rolls' for a while now. More of a distant cousin than a 7 coupe.
I can't understand stealing the logo thing. what value does it have by itself? it's more likely an evolved marketing strategy in this social media era. We are too gullible, but to be fair, research takes effort and sometimes it's harrrrd.
Type the year in which you think the average car price will reach 100k and the "typical" high-end luxury vehicle reaches 1mill. Like winter....It is coming.
For that price tag, I would probably always feel something about the car should be better/different leaving me and my wallet empty. Then again, if I could afford it, I probably wouldn't care.
What makes this car special? Besides the styling and interior? Before we had v12 and now just two electrical motors that can be found in Teslas.... Not even a ev-only platform
One thing that I don't understand. If your screen for your speedo/tac/fuel just looks like analog gauges, why not just use really high quality and fancy gauges? I'd much rather have that than the lack luster look this expensive car has. Why not make it very customizable if you're using a screen?
Is he trying to say "chartreuse "? Chartreuse is a type of French liqueur and a well-known color. If you don't know how to pronounce it, you can look it up on UA-cam. There are a few videos pronouncing this word. It is like shar-truce. Otherwise, this is an excellent video evaluation.
I think making this a EV was a mistake , yes smooth power is what rolls is about , but rolls is also about being exclusive, bespoke and special, what is special about a EV powertrain? And this car will have a waaaaay shorter life than previous rolls , battery packs just don't last
These cars including the bmw m5 and say the electric hummer are weighing in damn if not more than some diesel pickups and with how fast they are imagine getting tboned in your car by a 6500lb missile
Driving should be quiet. The only noise you should hear is tires, wind and your music in your speakers. Complaining about lack of engine sound is a legacy feeling akin to not hearing rotary dial phone sound or not hearing a get engine roar while flying a first class seat London-New York. The reason people complain about lack of engine sound is because they have nothing else to attribute to Power in their minds, they still can't grasp new tech for what it is, Instead they seek revenge what what it was suppose to be in their dreams😂

Great vid man, feel like some reviewers are jaded over years of reviewing. Really detailed & appreciative vid, shows you love what you're doing 👍🏻
To me all rolls Royces are built to perfection
Looks to future for me
"What color do I want on my new Rolls? I think I'll go with baby poop green."
😂😂😂
My parents bought one. It came with free floor mats and 2x premium car washes at Shell.
🤣🤣 Congratulations. The deal of the century, LMAO!
I knew that I should have held out for the floor mats. That damn salesman told me the car washes was "the best that he could do".
yeah right....I wouldn't take my Hyundai to Shell for a car wash!
I was expecting this car to cost $200k over half million dollars for this is insane.
Rolls Royce have been very spendy vehicles. This is no surprise.
This not for us… unless it is.

If I had over 100 mil in the bank, sure I’d have no problem getting this😅😅
I would not even if I had 100m, it looks so extra and attention grabbing
I can appreciate the craftsmanship, but it far to ostentatious for me regardless of my income.

550K, lol!!!! Unbelievable the kind of money some people have to burn on a car.
People who gonna buy this, don't ask price or bargain. It doesn't matter what it costs
It was an old RR AD, If you have to ask for the price, you can't afford it

You said the car is a heavy girl. Do you intend to put Ozempic in the windshield washer fluid?
That was a good video, Sofyan. I'm not crazy about the color or the price but it's a beautiful car. Happy Fourth of July to you and your family.
In Germany there are like 10 new Spectres for sale in stock so if you have about 550k euro, you can just go and get it.
I’ve seen one up close and it’s impressive. The drivetrain needs to be upgraded from Kia specs.
Yeah but a Kia doesn't weigh 6500 lbs and is luxurious like a yacht inside is it ?
Speed and acceleration are not what this car is made for !
@@gregorygant4242The acceleration is adequate, but for a vehicle that is supposed to represent the best of everything, 264 miles of range is abysmal.

6500lbs. Gonna need a CDL to drive these cars soon
They build them faster than the laws can keep up. They're rewriting the laws daily on these EV things.
Where did all the $ go for development? They just stole the power train from the 7 series. Any thoughts?

@@krane15 still does not justify the price.
This should have near 1000 hp for an electric Rolls Royce...i would never buy an electric Rolls. Heavier and worse handling. At least it looks gorgeous unlike the I7
You don’t understand Rolls Royce. Rolls Royce’s need “adequate power” that’s it. This is utter luxury and comfort. Not speed.
I agree, but maybe range + comfort was their push over power.
I could see it having over 650, but that's not why you buy a Rolls-Royce.
This is my dream car right here.
So which car doesn't have the solid sounding thunk? 🤔
