Rolls-Royce Just Gave Its Flagship Electric Coupe, Spectre Series II a Massive Upgrade
Rolls-Royce unveiled the Spectre Series II, an upgraded electric coupe featuring an 18% range increase to 390 miles, faster charging, and enhanced power outputs, including a Black Badge variant producing 500 kW and 1,100 Nm of torque. The update introduces refined interior materials, a redesigned dashboard with aviation-inspired clock and illuminated fascia, and design tweaks like Ethereal Blue paint and Black Badge’s Iced Black detailing package.
Rolls-Royce has introduced the Spectre Series II, a major refresh of its first production electric car, improving key EV metrics while preserving its iconic fastback silhouette. The update includes re-engineered battery cells, boosting WLTP range by 18% to 390 miles (628 km) and reducing charging times by 14%. Power outputs rise to 442 kW and 1,015 Nm for the standard model, while the Black Badge variant achieves 500 kW in Infinity Mode and up to 1,100 Nm in Spirited Mode, marking Rolls-Royce’s most powerful production car ever. Design changes remain subtle, with the split-headlamp face and clean surfacing retained alongside a new solid paint option, Ethereal Blue, and faceted 23-inch forged wheels hand-finished for up to six hours. Black Badge buyers receive an Iced Black detailing package, replacing most brightwork with a matte satin finish while keeping the Pantheon Grille vanes polished. The interior undergoes the most significant transformation, featuring Duality Twill fabric woven from bamboo, Placed Perforation leather with up to 78,138 perforations, and a new high-gloss Brindled Walnut veneer incorporating recycled materials. A redesigned clock, inspired by aviation instruments, sits beside a stainless steel Spirit of Ecstasy, while an Illuminated Fascia uses 8,108 pixel-like lights to simulate mist across the dashboard. Rolls-Royce tailored the updates based on owner behavior, noting that the Spectre is often the second car in a seven-car garage but frequently driven solo and charged at home. Data shows one European owner logged over 30,000 miles in two years, and the Spectre was Rolls-Royce’s second best-selling model globally in 2025 after the Phantom. CEO Chris Brownridge described the update as a refinement of a modern masterpiece, while design director Domagoj Dukec highlighted client demand for the Spectre as a creative canvas. Pricing and on-sale timing were not disclosed during the announcement. The Spectre Series II continues Rolls-Royce’s commitment to blending luxury with cutting-edge electric technology.
