The Black Badge Spectre Series II gets more power, new wheels, new paint and a new satin black brightwork treatment.Rolls-Royce Motor CarsFour years after it launched, Rolls-Royce has updated its Spectre electric car with more power, more range, faster charging – and, of course, greater options for customization.Called the Spectre Series II, the new car has a range of 390 miles (using the European WLTP standard), which is an 18 percent improvement over the original.The new car also charges 14 percent more quickly, but Rolls-Royce hasn’t attached a time in minutes or a kilowatt figure to that. The original Spectre uses a 400-volt system and has a maximum charge rate of 195 kW, so while those figures might not have changed, an improvement to how long the Spectre Series II can sustain the maximum rate could see a noticeable improvement in charge time.AdvertisementAdvertisementNot that many Spectre drivers tend to charge their Rolls-Royces away from home. The company says how its existing Spectre owners charge “almost exclusively at home”. Rolls-Royce also said how the Spectre is typically the second Rolls in a seven-car garage, but is driven a reasonable amount, at around 4,000 miles per year, and is mostly driven solo.Its maker says a Spectre is typically the buyer's second Rolls-Royce, and joins a seven-car garage.Rolls-Royce Motor CarsBack to the new model, and power has been increased from 430 to 442 kW (592 horsepower). Torque is up from 900 to 1,015 Nm (748 ft-lbs) but a new acceleration time has not been provided.There’s also a new Black Badge Spectre Series II, which sees its total output increase to 500 kW (670 hp) when using Infinity Mode. Engage Spirited Mode (Rolls-speak for launch control) and torque jumps to 1,100 Nm).Also new for Spectre Series II is a new dashboard clock design that draws inspiration from aviation instruments, plus new interior offerings through Rolls’ Bespoke department, called Duality Twill and Placed Perforation. The former is a rayon fabric made from bamboo, and a single interior’s worth can include more than 2.6 million stitches and 10 miles of thread. Placed Perforation is a new leather interior option where a pattern is created across the seats using tiny, precision-cut holes.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe company said how the Spectre is the second-most customized Rolls-Royce, behind only the Phantom limousine, so it makes sense to make more Bespoke options available for buyers of its EV.Interior upgrades include a new sage green colour options for the seatsRolls-Royce Motor CarsThere’s also a new exterior paint option, called Ethereal Blue, and a new 23-inch forged alloy wheel with a highly faceted multi-spoke design. Rolls-Royce says it takes up to six hours to hand-finish each wheel, and the faceting is available in two finishes: part-polished and fully polished.As well as the usual dose of extra power and torque, the Black Badge Spectre Series II gets a new exterior detailing finish called Iced Black. This is used for all of the car’s brightwork, giving the grille surround, bumper inserts, R-R badges, door handles and Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament a matte finish. Rolls-Royce says the finish is achieved by using a specially developed matte clear coat, which creates a satin-like finish to components that are polished chrome on the standard car.No prices have been announced, as is Rolls-Royce tradition. The original Spectre started at around $420,000, but extensive customization through the Bespoke department can see that figure soon exceed $500,000. You can expect much the same from the Series II.This article was originally published on Forbes.com
