Rolls-Royce Wraith

Mandy Turner, Mike Costello, and Kez Casey are live from Motorsport Safety and Rescue as our ute mega test continues! After the recent launch, Kez reviews the 2020 BMW X4 M locally. We speak with the General Manager Corporate Communications for Volkswagen Australia, Paul Pottinger about the brand's SUV rollout, ID models, and the Skoda Kodiaq RS. Lastly, Mandy takes a ride with Paul Maric around Toorak in the 2019 Rolls Royce Wraith Black Badge.

Rolls-Royce has embraced its dark side, unveiling a collection of 70 Dawn and Wraith special editions as part of the Adamas Collection. Adamas picks up where the Black Badge left off, taking the base Wraith and Dawn packages in a sportier, darker direction with a number of bespoke touches – the most eye-catching of which is undoubtedly the carbon-fibre Spirit of Ecstasy on the nose.

Luxury marque Rolls-Royce has used its flair for premium car design to create a range of elegant luggage designed to accompany the Wraith. The collection was brought to life by Rolls-Royce designer, Michael Bryden, and has been crafted to be housed perfectly in the rear compartment of the $645,000 car. The range features two Grand Tourer Valises, three Long Weekender bags and one Garment Carrier.

The Rolls-Royce Wraith has debuted in Australia with confirmation that local cars will feature the brand's innovative new satellite navigation-linked automatic transmission. While previously unconfirmed for our market, Rolls-Royce Asia Pacific general manager Dan Balmer confirmed the Satellite Aided Transmission (SAT) technology would be available in Australia after a detailed investigation of the country’s GPS data found it suitable to support the new system.

The Rolls-Royce Wraith, the British marque's most powerful car ever, has been revealed before its world premiere at today's Geneva motor show. Combining a sleek fastback silhouette and a 465kW/800Nm twin-turbocharged 6.6-litre V12 engine capable of ensuring sir arrives at 100km/h from rest in 4.6 seconds, the Rolls-Royce Wraith has been dubbed the “ultimate gentlemen’s gran turismo” by the company’s CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos.
