A New Era of Power and Prestige

Rolls-Royce has never been a brand that conforms—it redefines. With the unveiling of the Black Badge Spectre, the marque introduces its most powerful and audacious creation yet. This all-electric super coupé is not merely an evolution of Spectre—it is an alter ego, amplified. With a record-breaking 485 kW (659 hp) of power and 1075 Nm of torque, Black Badge Spectre surpasses all previous Rolls-Royce models, embodying the bold spirit of those who refuse to be bound by tradition.

The Black Badge client is a unique breed: innovators, boundary-pushers, and rule-breakers. These individuals demand more than just luxury—they seek a machine that resonates with their defiant energy. Rolls-Royce engineers meticulously studied anonymized driving data from Black Badge clients, revealing that they prefer short, intense bursts of power rather than sustained acceleration. This insight shaped the dynamic enhancements of the Black Badge Spectre, making it the most engaging Rolls-Royce driving experience to date.

 

 

Harnessing a New Level of Performance

 

Black Badge Spectre introduces two groundbreaking performance modes, inspired by the aviation heritage of Rolls-Royce.

• Infinity Mode (∞ Button): A tribute to the Infinity symbol, synonymous with Black Badge, this mode unlocks the full 659 hp, delivering an unfiltered surge of power. The dashboard dials shift to a more vibrant aesthetic, reflecting the heightened driving intensity.

• Spirited Mode: Inspired by the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, this function allows the driver to unleash instantaneous acceleration. When engaged, it temporarily boosts the torque output to 1075 Nm, catapulting the car from 0-60 mph in just 4.1 seconds—a figure unheard of in Rolls-Royce’s history.

To complement this power, Rolls-Royce engineers have fine-tuned chassis dynamics, refining steering weight, roll stabilization, and damping systems. These enhancements ensure that handling remains precise and effortless, all while maintaining the brand’s legendary Magic Carpet Ride.

 

A Clandestine Arrival

 

Long before its public debut, Black Badge Spectre was already a legend. A select group of Rolls-Royce clients were granted early access under strict confidentiality, allowing them to experience this automotive masterpiece ahead of its reveal. Their response was overwhelmingly positive, affirming that this was the Rolls-Royce they had long envisioned.

The Art of Dark Aesthetics

 

Visually, Black Badge Spectre is a statement of defiance. It debuts in Vapour Violet, a deep black-violet inspired by the neon glow of 1980s and 1990s club culture. Further personalization options include:

• A painted Iced Black bonnet, contrasting boldly with over 44,000 Bespoke color choices.

• 23-inch five-spoke forged aluminum wheels, available in part-polished or full-black finishes.

• Darkened chrome elements, from the Pantheon Grille to the Spirit of Ecstasy, reinforcing the car’s noire character.

 

A Vibrant, Futuristic Interior

 

Inside, Black Badge Spectre is an immersive world of avant-garde craftsmanship. Key highlights include:

• Illuminated Grille Backplate, available in five vibrant colors, extending the car’s unique aesthetic into the interior.

• Illuminated Fascia, featuring over 5,500 stars and an abstract Spirit of Ecstasy motif, accentuated by the Black Badge Infinity symbol.

• Technical Fibre Interior, a diamond-pattern weave of carbon and metal thread, adding futuristic depth.

The SPIRIT digital architecture seamlessly integrates the driving experience, offering remote charging insights, location tracking, and access to Rolls-Royce’s exclusive Whispers digital club.

The Ultimate Statement

 

Black Badge Spectre is not just another Rolls-Royce—it is a manifesto of power, individuality, and fearless expression. It is a machine for those who rewrite the rules of success and demand a car that embodies their uncompromising vision of luxury.

For those who dare to stand apart, Black Badge Spectre is waiting.

 

“Black Badge Spectre is one of the clearest statements of power and purpose we have ever made. It has been created in the image of our boldest and most audacious clients, with meticulous attention to detail. From the beginning of Black Badge Spectre’s journey, the clients who requested this extraordinary motor car dared us to share their fearless spirit. In response, our engineers combined data science, qualitative feedback, and their own deep knowledge of the brand’s alter ego to craft an intense and uncompromising character, and the most powerful Rolls-Royce in history. Reflecting the Black Badge character, our designers and artisans realised their most dramatic and provocative vision with vivid details and exquisite contemporary crafts. The result is Black Badge Spectre: the alter ego of our brand, amplified.”

Chris Brownridge, Chief Executive, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars

 

“The development of Black Badge Spectre began with our deep understanding of engineering the uncompromising nature of the Black Badge character, overlaid with the detailed analysis of client feedback and their driving style. Black Badge owners from around the world permitted our specialists to access their anonymised data, enabling us to create a new driving experience perfectly suited to – and validated by – the way our clients use their motor car. Following internal development, a small tranche of ‘secret’ Black Badge Spectres was built for a group of clients who requested the earliest possible access to this motor car. They emphatically approved of our engineering response, highlighting the powerful connection between Rolls-Royce and its clients.”
