Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge and Ghost
Black Badge
Rolls-Royce is looking to celebrate this
year's Goodwood Festival of Speed by bringing a dark and edgy presence to the
famous Hillclimb. The luxury automaker will be featuring
both the Wraith Black Badge as well as the Ghost Black Badge at the type of
event for which they were built.
Of course, aside from the two special
edition models, Rolls-Royce will also be displaying an exclusive fleet of motor
cars, with VIP guests being driven in luxury from the company's plant &
head office on the South-Eastern corner of the Goodwood Estate, to the very
heart of the event.
According to RR, their Black Badge
models speak to the "darker, more assertive, confident and demanding
aesthetic of a new breed of Rolls-Royce customers." These cars are also
here to bring the color black to new levels of intensity with multiple layers
of paint and lacquer which in the end result in the deepest, darkest and most
intense black ever seen on a production car - says the British automaker.
Those visiting Goodwood this year will
be able to see the Wraith Black Badge on the Supercar Run up the hill, as well
as in between hill climbs in the Supercar Paddock. The Wraith is the most
powerful Rolls-Royce in the world at 632 PS and 870 Nm of
torque. It also comes with a tweaked air suspension and an upgraded gearbox.
Inside, there's Black and Mugello Red
contrast leather, plus an aerospace-grade aluminum-threaded carbon fiber
composite surface on the fascia. The Ghost Black Badge on the other hand
will act as the Rolls-Royce Course Car this year, featuring Black and Cobalto
Blue contrast leather on the inside. Its power has gone up by 40 HP and 60 Nm of torque - for a total of 611 PS.
The Ghost will be driven by a team from
Rolls-Royce, while the Wraith will welcome FOS favorite Justin Law behind the
wheel.
