A Bavarian encounter, with a Ghost...
There are moments in life that redefine what we thought we knew about refinement. My very first drive in a Rolls-Royce was one of them.
Behind the wheel of the new Ghost Series II, I discovered a car that is not only a sanctuary of calm for those who wish to be chauffeured, but also an extraordinary driving companion for those who dare to take the wheel themselves.
Through the scenic Bavarian roads, winding into the Alps and across serene mountain passes, the V12 engine revealed itself with a voice that is powerful yet dignified.
The effortless surge of torque from just 1,600 rpm created a sensation of endless motion, what Rolls-Royce famously calls “waftability.”
It was simply sublime: a grand tourer with the agility of a driver’s car, yet the serenity of a private lounge on wheels.
The Ghost Series II is officially presented as the most technologically advanced and driver-focused V12 Rolls-Royce ever created.
Subtle design refinements frame its illuminated Pantheon grille and expressive new headlights, while the interior blends digital modernity with artisanal craftsmanship. The new SPIRIT digital interface integrates seamlessly with Whispers, the private Rolls-Royce members app, extending Bespoke into the digital realm.
Inside, every detail resonates with craftsmanship: from the Spirit of Ecstasy Clock Cabinet to the celestial-inspired Illuminated Fascia. Clients may commission avant-garde finishes such as Grey Stained Ash with a shimmering metallic grain, or even Duality Twill, an innovative bamboo textile interlaced with up to 2.2 million stitches.
Rear passengers now enjoy enhanced entertainment systems, Champagne coolers set at the perfect sommelier-advised temperatures, and audio quality that transforms the cabin into a concert hall. And then, just when you thought the surprises are over, with the Starlight Headliner, the Ghost Series II turns every drive into a celestial experience - a night sky stitched with light, within arm’s reach.
But at its heart, Ghost Series II is about balance. The Planar Suspension, Flagbearer system, and Satellite Aided Transmission anticipate every curve, ensuring that the serenity of the ride is never disturbed, even on the most demanding alpine roads.
Driving it through Bavaria, I came to admire the Ghost Series II, being a stage for self-expression, a fusion of power and poetry.
It is a Rolls-Royce designed to be both driven in and driven with passion.
So now, it is your turn to ask yourself about a new encounter with a Ghost...
