The Finer Details
The first Rolls-Royce all-electric production car, the original two-door Spectre began deliveries in Australia in late 2024.
Spectre II is expected to go on sale in Australia very soon however, delivery timing is yet to be confirmed.
Both the Spectre and the even-higher-performance Spectre Black Badge continue as part of the upgrade and while physical changes are relatively minor and centre on things like new alloy wheels, there have been some important tech updates.
Power and torque are boosted in both models, with the Spectre’s dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain now producing 442kW/1015Nm – up 12kW and 115Nm.
The Black Badge upgrades from 485kW/1075NM to 500kW/1100Nm (in the right modes), reaffirming its position as the most powerful production Rolls-Royce ever.
Revised battery cell technology in the new 112.4kWh lithium-ion battery pack has increased claimed range by around 18 per cent and reduced charging time by 14 per cent, according to the British marque.
That translates to a 10 to 80 per cent top-up in less than 30 minutes, while claimed driving range is as much as 628km (WLTP).
Average consumption for both models is rated at 20.2kWh per 100km – not bad considering this thing weighs in at 2925kg and is 5490mm long!
Like the exterior, the interior has been subtly revised, but personalisation for the Spectre II has been a big focus for this update.
There are too many new trims, materials and paints to go into here, but one good example of what’s now on offer is a Brindled Walnut veneer sourced from non-fruiting trees that would normally be burned.
The Road Ahead
Pricing has been confirmed, with the Rolls-Royce Spectre II starting from $815,000 plus on-road costs, while the Black Badge Spectre is priced from $945,000 (plus ORCs).
A Rolls-Royce spokesperson confirmed local arrivals are expected in the fourth quarter, with customer commissions now open. First Australian deliveries are scheduled to begin in November.
