2013 Rolls-Royce Ghost

(Monday 29 October 2012)

Rolls-Royce has confirmed the specification of its 2013 model year Ghost, the (relatively) compact and inexpensive but considerably higher-performance little sister to the Phantom sub-range.

There are no major changes, but the doors now have feature soft, natural grain leather and cross-banded wood veneers, while the audio system has an upgraded amplifier and, in the headlining, additional "exciter" speakers who purpose is to raise the centre of the sound closer to the passengers' ears.

New to Rolls-Royce, but related to similar features offered by more mainstream manufacturers, is Comfort Access, which allows you to open the bootlid simply by placing a foot (preferably one of your own) under the centre of the rear bumper.

As of this generation, the Ghost also now has the option of forged alloy wheels.
