Rolls‑Royce Reveals Spectre Series II With Longer Range and Greater Power

Recalibrating battery cells and motors raises the Spectre's claimed WLTP range, cuts charging time, expands Bespoke options.

Overview

  • Rolls‑Royce publicly unveiled the Spectre Series II this week, presenting manufacturer figures that claim an roughly 18% WLTP range increase to about 628–638 km and a roughly 14% reduction in charging time.
  • The company says the gains come from re‑engineered cells within the existing 102 kWh battery and recalibrated dual motors, but no independent EPA or third‑party range and charging verification has been published yet.
  • Performance has been boosted across the line with a new baseline of about 442 kW and 1,015 Nm and a Black Badge ‘Infinity/Spirited’ configuration claiming up to roughly 500 kW and 1,100 Nm, which Rolls‑Royce calls its most powerful model to date.
  • Series II adds visible updates and deeper Bespoke choices, including a new Ethereal Blue paint, 23‑inch forged wheels, Iced Black Black Badge detailing, an illuminated full‑width fascia and new interior materials such as Duality Twill and Brindled Walnut veneer.
  • Commercial specifics remain unresolved as Rolls‑Royce has not published regional pricing, EPA figures or final delivery dates, leaving buyers to expect a low‑volume, high‑cost launch and dealers to confirm timing and costs in coming weeks.
