Rolls-Royce introduced its new electric car, and I’ve never wanted something so far out of my price range in my entire life.
Officially named the Spectre, this car is just as gorgeous as it is exquisite perfection.
I used to love my Honda Civic — until 5 minutes ago when I got a look at the new electric Rolls-Royce. Now my car seems a little lacking in character and grace.
I mean, even the INSIDE of this vehicle is hella cool. Sure, it has sleek figures and perfect grace.
But, ya’ll. It’s like sitting in a fairyland of twinkling lights, and I want it!!
Not only do you sit under a dome of glimmering “stars,” but this Royce features “Starlight Doors.” They have hidden 4,796 softly illuminated lights along the insides of the doors, and I’m dying right now.
In 1900, Rolls-Royce co-founder, Charles Rolls, prophesised an electric future for the motor car — Today, more than 120 years later, the time has come for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars to fulfil the prophecy of its founding father.

This coupe has just 2 doors and seats 4 people, but the absolutely stunning vehicle is as long as a full-length SUV, clocking in at over 17 1/2 feet long.
You want speed? This electric Rolls-Royce can go 0 to 60 miles per hour in 4.4 seconds and — according to ABC — “delivers 664 ft-lb of torque and 577 horsepower.”
I’m not 100% sure what all that means, but sign me up!!
Spectre represents the start of our electric era [and] has been under development for many years — The prime directive of this project was to ensure that Spectre is a Rolls-Royce first and foremost and happens to be powered as an electric car second.

I’m sure — for the people who can afford it — this new electric Rolls-Royce will be in high demand.
In fact, people aren’t holding back any punches when it comes to projecting the popularity of this vehicle.
There will be a lot of hand-raisers and it will be sold out for years — The price of these vehicles has no meaning to customers. Rolls-Royce operates on a different level than anyone else — it has guaranteed sales.

That’s it. They’ve sold me. I want one!!
I swear, I was born to be rich. I am pretty sure I was royalty in another life.
What do YOU think of this new electric Rolls-Royce? It’s perfection, isn’t it?!?
