Much like the 7 Series and its electric i7 counterpart have been tested in Sweden, ultra-luxury brand Rolls-Royce took the Spectre as well. The BMW Group facility located in Arjeplog just 55 kilometers (34 miles) from the Arctic Circle is where prototypes of the EV have been subjected to various evaluations in harsh conditions. Temperatures dropped to as low as -40 degrees Celsius / Fahrenheit and test vehicles were driven on rough surfaces.
The first Rolls-Royce coupe to ride on massive 23-inch wheels since 1926 is not a Wraith replacement. Instead, it's seen as a spiritual successor of the Phantom Coupe as denoted by the split headlights. Along with releasing the stunning imagery, the Goodwood brand also shared some juicy tidbits. For example, the battery weighs 700 kilograms (1,543 pounds) and serves a double purpose.
