ROLLS-ROYCE Ghost II (RR21) [2020-2025] Alloy Wheels

Rolls-Royce Ghost II (RR21)

The Rolls-Royce Ghost II (RR21) is the second generation of the British brand's "smaller" limousine, though in practice, the term "smaller" is relative. The new Ghost is built on the aluminum Architecture of Luxury platform, known from the Phantom and Cullinan. It's a car designed for more modern, less ostentatious luxury—but still without compromise.

Characteristic

Stylistically, the Ghost II is more minimalist than its predecessor. Simple, clean body lines and a subtly integrated grille give it a more tranquil character. The distinctive illuminated grille and Spirit of Ecstasy figurine remain the focal point of the front end. The silhouette is monumental, yet devoid of unnecessary embossing – a conscious move away from excess detail in favor of elegant simplicity. The interior is a demonstration of contemporary British luxury. Top-quality leather, hand-finished wood and metal elements, and impeccable fit and finish create an atmosphere of tranquility and privacy. One distinctive feature is the illuminated "Ghost" strip on the passenger side, which aligns with the concept of subtle cabin illumination. Interior soundproofing has been refined to an extreme level, with additional insulating materials and specially developed noise-reducing tires.

Under the hood, a 6.75-liter twin- turbo V12 engine generates high torque available almost from standstill. The unit is paired with an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission that uses navigation data to predict gear changes. Acceleration is smooth and almost undramatic – the Ghost doesn't flaunt its power, but delivers it in a completely controlled manner. The suspension utilizes the Planar Suspension System with a road-scanning camera and active anti-roll bars. The effect is a characteristic "floating" effect – without any noticeable jolts or abrupt reactions. Four-wheel drive and rear-axle steering improve stability and maneuverability despite the car's enormous size. Assistance systems include adaptive cruise control, safety systems, and driving assistants, although in the Ghost, technology remains in the background – it doesn't dominate the driving experience.

Summary

The Rolls-Royce Ghost II (RR21) represents luxury in its most understated and refined form. Its minimalist design, powerful V12 engine, and exceptional suspension comfort create a limousine that doesn't need ostentation to emphasize its status. It's a car designed for absolute comfort and understated elegance.
