Described as a 2050 Rolls Royce Phantom by Matthew Parsons, who posted it on
Behance, the CGIs look pretty much spot on, with the instantly recognizable
front end dominated by the specific grille and slender headlights, and a
dual-tone paintwork.
The artist has drawn inspiration from the brand's
Vision Next 100 Concept, which debuted last year to honor the BMW Group's
centenary, with its futuristic design, fully autonomous driving, and a
zero-emission electric powertrain, as the brand itself said that internal
combustion engines are unlikely to survive in the future.
Rolls-Royce won't be waving goodbye to the V12 for
now, as the next generation is expected to use a re-worked version of the
current 6.75-liter unit. The engine will become more powerful and will also
keep up with the times by being more fuel efficient.
Speaking of the new generation Rolls-Royce Phantom,
it is believed to be unveiled in 2018, with an evolutionary design, a
completely new cabin, and some of BMW's latest driver assistance systems, all
of which will make the brand's flagship saloon the preferred chauffeur's drive
of choice once again.
