Rolls-Royce will unveil the new Phantom Coupé at the 78th International Geneva Motor Show in March this year.

Following the overwhelming positive response to the concept 101EX that Rolls Royce released in 2006, Rolls-Royce decided last year they would build a series model, and hence birthed the Phantom Coupé.

With an all-aluminium spaceframe at its base, it offers great strength-to-weight ratio, and aluminium has also been used for all the coupé’s panels, except for the picnic boot, steel bonnet and A-pillar surround.

A 6.75-liter V12 engine powers the coupé from rest to 100 km/h in 5.6 seconds, maxing out at a top speed of 250 km/h. While the craftsmanship is what we have come to expect of a Rolls, the coupe’s engineering and technology is almost all BMW, Rolls’ parent company – from the engine’s direct fuel injection to the car’s braking systems, and a 49:51 weight distribution.

The coupé completes the Phantom family, which also includes the Phantom, Phantom Extended Wheelbase and Phantom Drophead Coupé. And like its cousins, the coupé features the attention-grabbing Starlight Headlining feature, which transforms the roof of the car’s interior into a stellar night sky via hundreds of fiber optics lights. 

Prospective owners can also choose from 44,000 exterior colors through the company’s Bespoke programme if they do not fancy any of the nine standard colors offered.
