The Rolls Royce Wraith V12
The originality of the Wraith lies in its fastback silhouette, that of an imposing two-volume coupe whose rear stretches into a single continuous line, the trunk perfectly aligning with the rear window. A first for Rolls-Royce, whose traditional coupes, such as the Phantom Coupé, always adopt a «three-volume» silhouette with a distinctly distinct trunk. Why this change? Because this body expresses the more sporty ambitions of the Wraith, a more dynamic Rolls intended for a younger audience and more geared towards driving pleasure, unlike its counterparts, often reserved for refined driving by a chauffeur.
The fastback embodies the emblematic silhouette of grand tourers. It is therefore not surprising that Rolls-Royce acknowledges having been inspired by the elegant and generous lines of the Cisitalia 202, the first modern sports car, which was also the first automobile exhibited at the MOMA in New York.
Presented at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, notably through a launch film entitled «And the World Stood Still», the Rolls-Royce Wraith holds a unique place in the manufacturer’s range in Goodwood.
With its pure silhouette, this British model displays assertive sportiness while retaining its legendary luxury and refinement..
Powered by a V12 bi-turbo engine delivering 632 horsepower, this mechanical marvel offers exceptional performance on the road.
What is all the more remarkable is that our superb example has covered only 12,943 kilometers, making it a very rare gem at this price.
