The New Rolce Royce Ghost is built around a steel Monocoque chassis and suspension system including Dynamic Stability Control and Active Roll Stabilisation to create a more dynamic drive and the Rolls-Royce 'magic carpet ride'.
Powered by a new twin turbo 6.6-litre V12 engine, it is virtually silent, with 80% of its torque available from idle. Coupled with the 8-speed ZF gearbox it accelerates from 0-62 mph in just 4.9 seconds and has a governed top-speed of 155 mph.
Inside, Ghost is refined and cosseting. Entering and exiting is both effortless and graceful - the low sill height means you step 'onto' rather than 'into' Ghost.
The unique rear-hinged coach doors open to 83 degrees adding an extra sense of theatre for the rear passengers.
Once inside, you are greeted by a simple yet contemporary interior with large expanses of soft full grain leather, natural wood veneers and Blenheim wool carpets. The cashmere-blend roof lining adds to the sense of openness and space, enhanced by the optional Panorama sunroof.
All the leather work is done by hands and there are about 9 differrent colors to choose.
Finest Wood Vener
Beautiful wood in its most natural form adds a simple but striking finishing touch to the interior of Ghost. The wide, curving expanse of the facia creates a feature that can be appreciated from both the driver's seat and by passengers in the rear compartment.

Technology
Night vision
During the day the Night Vision System remains out of sight behind a veneered panel. As darkness falls a discreet infrared camera in the grille can detect the body heat of pedestrians up to 300 metres away.
At the touch of a button their thermal image is clearly shown on the Control Centre Display, giving you plenty of time to slow down and pass them safely.
Active cruise control
Designed for use on A roads and motorways, Active Cruise Control makes driving in heavy traffic less tiring. You can set it to maintain a predefined time gap from the car in front, reducing speed to a complete halt if necessary.
Once the traffic begins to move again, Ghost accelerates to the pre-programmed speed as soon as possible.
