Rolls-Royce has updated the Spectre, giving its first electric vehicle (EV) more range, more torque and a longer list of bespoke cabin options.
The revised model is called the Spectre Series II, and it keeps the large electric super-coupé shape introduced in 2022.
The changes are more about battery efficiency, software tuning and craftsmanship than a dramatic redesign.
Spectre was already one of Rolls-Royce’s most important modern models, mainly because it proved that silent electric drive could suit the brand better than many had expected.
Rolls-Royce said the Spectre Series II can now travel up to 628km on the WLTP cycle, up from 520km previously.
The official technical data lists an electric range of 582km to 628km, with energy use of 20.2 to 21.7 kWh/100km. Charging times have also been reduced by up to 14%, helped by reworked battery cell technology.
Power has also risen. The standard Spectre Series II now produces 442 kW (601 PS) and 1,015 Nm. For a car built around quiet progress rather than drag-strip antics, that is still a serious figure.
The darker, more aggressive Black Badge Spectre Series II goes further. Its Infinity Mode unlocks 500 kW (680 PS), while Spirited Mode raises torque to 1,100 Nm. Rolls-Royce continues to describe Black Badge Spectre as the most powerful car in its history.
Visually, the basic design stays largely intact. The split headlamps, long fastback roofline and clean body surfacing remain, but Rolls-Royce has added a new solid paint finish called Ethereal Blue. There is also a new 23-inch forged alloy wheel design, hand-finished for up to six hours per wheel. That sounds excessive, but this is Rolls-Royce territory. Excess is part of the product.
Inside, the brand has placed even more emphasis on personalisation. A new Duality Twill fabric made from bamboo-based rayon is now offered on Spectre for the first time. Rolls-Royce said one Duality Twill interior can use up to 2.6 million stitches, about 16km of thread and up to 25 hours of work. Buyers can choose from more than 50 thread colours.
There is also a new placed-perforation leather option. For its debut pattern, Rolls-Royce used 78,138 perforations across the seats, in three different hole sizes. The idea is to create a moonlit cloud-like pattern, and buyers who tick the illuminated door option get a softer fade effect near the light sources.
The fascia has also been revised. The interior panel and clock gallery now stretch across the full width of the dashboard, joined by a new illuminated fascia with 8,108 individual light elements. A new clock sits beside an up-lit Spirit of Ecstasy figurine made from solid stainless steel.
Black Badge Spectre Series II gets its own treatment, including a new Iced Black Exterior Detailing option. This gives most of the brightwork a matte finish, covering areas such as the grille surround, door handles, bumper inserts, sideframe trim and Spirit of Ecstasy. The grille vanes remain polished so the front end still reads as a Rolls-Royce.
The Spectre is also doing well commercially by Rolls-Royce standards. The brand said it was its second best-selling model globally in 2025. Typical owners reportedly keep it as the second Rolls-Royce in a seven-car garage, yet many still use it often. Average annual mileage is about 6,500km, while one European owner has covered more than 50,000km in two years.
Beyond the embroidery, walnut veneer and private-office gloss, the Spectre Series II is a simple update at heart: more range, more torque and more room for rich people to make it their own.
