Rolls-Royce Wraith/Dawn





The Rolls-Royce Wraith and Dawn are the coupe and convertible variants of the Ghost and one of the most luxurious coupes and convertibles on the market, introduced in 2013 and 2015 respectively. The Spirit of Ecstasy brand isn't as known for performance, but the Wraith and Dawn are the fastest Rolls-Royce models to date. Powering the Wraith and Dawn are a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 with 624 horsepower and 605 lb-ft of torque for the Wraith and 563 horsepower and 575 lb-ft of torque for the Dawn. Both vehicles launch from 0 to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds and are mated to an 8-speed automatic. Like several Rolls-Royce models, the doors on both the Wraith and Dawn are rear-hinged and swing open unconventionally. Since the Wraith has a fixed roof, it offers the Rolls-Royce signature starry night sky ceiling in the cabin. There are endless ways to customize the Wraith and Dawn through the Spirit of Ecstasy's Bespoke Program, so basically no two examples are the same. Their cabins combine traditional and modern elements into one amazing package. Traditional elements include analog clocks and gauges, along with a variety of leather and wood trims. Modern elements include infotainment and navigation borrowed from BMW, in-car WiFi, and real-time traffic updates. Both models can seat up to four, although the rear seats may not be as comfortable and spacious as those in the Ghost, Phantom, and Cullinan. Like every other Rolls-Royce model, the center caps on the Wraith and Dawn's wheels are weighted and stay in place when their wheels spin. Pricing starts at $332,000 for the Wraith and $359,250 for the Dawn. All in all, the Rolls-Royce Wraith and Dawn are gorgeous and incredibly fine cars. Very few can beat the comfort, luxury, and attention to detail that Rolls-Royce is known for.
