Millinium Falcon stand back because we have an “ Aluminium” Phantom ! Updated 6.6T V12 making 562 hp and 575 lb-ft, 8 speed automatic, all-wheel steering...I’m getting this from a Chinese site but it’s better than nothing. Oppo needs to thank !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for saving the day! Shoutout also to the person that posted the car earlier this morning but had their post deleted (sorry, I forgot who). You’re an MVP!

I’m disappointed it’s not hybrid assisted. The whole reason for the last V12 was the smoothness of NA power, and some sort of hybrid system could bring that to turbos.

Rolls Royce said their engines are so quiet and smooth that the next step can only be all-electric.

I love the changes but for an all new generation of a storied nameplate...this is about what I expected honestly. I have to admit that I’ve seen recent midcycle refreshes that were far more elaborate, but Rolls Royce has such a strict image that this is actually pretty outside the box. I mean, unless I’m mistaken, the analog gauges have been replaced with a digital screen. The forum will be enraged for the next 15 years!

We shall see. I personally thought that current Rolls’ were just hitting their stride and looking great. If all the new generations are more like updates to the current models then I will welcome them.

I remember the harrumphing and tsk-tsking when they had the gall to tilt the grill forward a few degrees on the Camargue. I even think a few monocles were dropped.
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Well all the articles started appearing about 30 minutes after I posted this one so I guess we’ll just enjoy the show from here!

My interest in owning one is still zero.
