2023 Rolls-Royce Spectre EV Silently Wafts Past Camera

Rolls-Royce is working on its first electric model, the Spectre coupe, which is scheduled to be launched in the latter part of 2023. It may look a lot like the Wraith, but its body is different and sleeker, although the most significant changes are in the front of the vehicle.

It features what looks like quite a small grille by Rolls-Royce standards, slim possibly split headlights and the lower part of the bumper looks like it is either completely closed off or it only lets in very little air through. The doors are still rear-hinged, in the traditional style, and even once the camouflage comes off, the Spectre won’t stand out as being too different among the rest of the lineup.

The camouflage that covers the entirety of this Spectre prototype’s body has several messages on it, including one that announces this vehicle will be ‘perfectly noiseless.’ In this video posted by CarSpyMedia, the prototype rolls past the camera and it really is silent, although Rolls-Royce won’t be able to eliminate road noise and the vehicle will have to have a pedestrian warning sound that it needs to play up to 20 km/h (12 mph) in Europe.
