In 2021, Rolls-Royce declared its commitment to electric technology.
This was by announcing Spectre, an all-electric car and that by the end of 2030, the marque’s entire portfolio would be fully electric.
Now, ahead of first client deliveries later this year, Spectre made its UK dealer debut on
1st June at the marque’s flagship residence in Berkeley Street, Mayfair, London. The world’s first ultra-luxury electric super coupé will now embark on its UK tour, offering prospective customers an opportunity to view the car up close & personal.

Spectre heralds the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and the start of the marque’s all-electric era. Rolls-Royce has a long-standing connection with electric technologies; in 1900, Rolls-Royce co-founder Charles Rolls prophesised an electric future for the motor car.
Having experienced an electric vehicle named The Columbia Electric Carriage, he foresaw the technology’s suitability as a clean, noiseless alternative to the internal combustion engine, providing there was sufficient infrastructure to support it. In 2011, Rolls-Royce showcased a fully electric Experimental Phantom concept named 102EX. This was followed by 103EX, a dramatic design study that anticipated a bold electric future for the marque.
