Specs: 6.75L twin turbo V12. 563 hp, 664 pounds of torque.
8 speed automatic
Rolls-Royce notes that this architecture is lighter and stiffer than before, but don't think the Phantom is a lightweight now. Both the short- and extended-wheelbase Phantoms weigh nearly 6000 lbs. A full 286 of those pounds is just sound deadening, which Rolls-Royce says helps make the Phantom the quietest car in the world
Inside the Phantom is as spectacular as you'd expect it to be—after all, this is Rolls-Royce's flagship model. Rolls-Royce says the interior is designed to "embrace" its occupants with the nicest leather, wood, and metal available. There are multiple rear-seat configurations too—you can get a "lounge" seat, individual seats with either a foldable or permanent armrest, or a "sleeping seat."
Talk about customization: :notbad:
In front, Rolls-Royce will finish the dashboard—which its now calling "The Gallery"—with combinations of silk, leather, wood, and metal, but there's a more interesting option. You can actually commission an artist of your choice to create their own dashboard designs. Rolls-Royce worked with various artists to create examples of these custom dashboards, which include one with an oil painting, and one with porcelain roses.
