Rolls Royce Spectre Review

Have there been electric Rolls Royces before the Spectre?

Not officially, no. This is the first, although Charles Rolls predicted they'd be perfect four years before his historic first meeting with Henry Royce in 1900.

What battery and motors does the Rolls Royce Spectre use?

There are two electric motors - front and rear which produce a combined output of 577bhp. They are powered by a 102kWh lithium-ion battery.

What is the range of the Rolls Royce Spectre?

Officially, 329 miles, which the company's research says is more than its customers need. We got closer to 250 though.

How much does the Rolls Royce Spectre cost?

No two Spectres are the same, so the cost will vary depending of what options you choose. But you'll not get out of the showroom without spending less than £350,000. Unless you just pop in for a keyring.

How fast can the Rolls Royce Spectre charge?

Charge times from 10-80% take 34 minutes at a DC fast charger where it can draw a maximum charge rate of 195kW. The company says it expects the majority of its owners to do their charging at home, though.
