Mansory has unveiled its tuning package for Rolls-Royce’s first-ever production EV, the Spectre. Gone is the subtle design of the ultra-luxurious coupe, replaced by numerous carbon fiber add-ons adorning the exterior and a striking orange leather upholstery gracing the cabin. The Rolls-Royce Spectre made its debut in October 2022, but tuners have been somewhat hesitant to tinker with it. However, Mansory, a name well-acquainted with Rolls-Royce builds, has embarked on a complete vehicle conversion, demonstrating the possibilities when a Spectre owner grants them the green light.
A significant portion of the exterior is
adorned with Mansory’s signature carbon weave, encompassing the entire hood,
noted for its “ultra-light” construction. The front bumper boasts a sharper
splitter and matching trim surrounding the intakes, which now accommodate an
additional set of slim LED DRLs. While the grille has been darkened, it retains
its illuminated effect, customizable to any desired color.The profile of the
standard Spectre largely comes without any decorative features, but Mansory
added massive side gills with fake intakes and sportier side skirts with
integrated fins. Similarly, the thick bezels surrounding the greenhouse got a
carbon fiber extension, as with the taillight garnish.
The alterations to the rear end are even
more pronounced, featuring a large diffuser enveloping the bespoke carbon fiber
bumper and optionally equipped with an F1-style third brake light. Moreover,
the EV’s sweeping roofline is interrupted by a discreet roof spoiler and a more
prominent lip spoiler on the tailgate’s edge. While Mansory claims these
additions were made to “maximize downforce on the rear axle,” we can’t help but
question whether the Spectre needed the extra drag. As for the wheels, Mansory
had already announced the FD.15 rims with a diameter of 23 inches, but they
have now added the option of an even larger 24-inch version shod in 295/30 R24
tires. On the pictured example, the forged and polished wheels are painted
black, matching the dark-themed exterior.
Moving inside, the tuner opted for a
high-contrast combination with orange and black shades for the fine leather
upholstery. There is a heavy dose of carbon fiber inserts, along high-pile
floor mats and star-lit door cards matching the roofliner. As is the case with
most modified EVs, the electric powertrain remains intact. The Rolls-Royce
Spectre makes 577 hp and 895 Nm of torque, enough
to propel the heavyweight luxury coupe from 0-96 km/h in 4.4
seconds. On the other hand, the 120 kWh battery pack offers a 428 km range, which shouldn’t be an issue as not many owners use their Rolls-Royces
for hypermiling.
Mansory didn’t disclose the cost of the
Spectre conversion, but they’re more than willing to create another one for
interested parties.
