ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM/PHANTOM EWB | The First Saloon of the New Rolls-Royce Era

<br>The first model developed by ROLLS-ROYCE as a new manufacturer under BMW was the Phantom. The front grille, inspired by the Parthenon, is a ROLLS-ROYCE tradition.
<br>The familiar mascot, known as the "Spirit of Ecstasy." Its prototype is said to have been designed in the 1910s.
<br>While ROLLS-ROYCE has a strong classic image, the technology employed is cutting-edge. For example, the adoption of an aluminum spaceframe structure for the body is one such instance.
<br>It is powered by a specially designed 6.75-liter V12 engine. It boasts a high output of 460 ps and 720 Nm, and like a large-displacement engine, it delivers 75% of its maximum torque at just 1000 rpm.
<br>The imposing presence of the Phantom, measuring 5835mm in length. Thick C-pillars and coach doors that open outwards are its distinctive exterior features.
<br>In addition to the SWB (Short Wheelbase) with a wheelbase of 3570mm, the Phantom is also available in an EWB (Extended Wheelbase) with an enlarged wheelbase of 3820mm.
<br>The rear seats of the Phantom EWB. A luxurious space where the already ample legroom of the SWB is further expanded. Like the SWB, the flat floor facilitates movement within the cabin.
