Facelift of the Rolls Royce Phantom.

A subtle geometric change to the Pantheon grille makes the "RR" badge of honor and the "Spirit of Ecstasy" mascot more visible from the front. The grille itself is now illuminated, a feature first introduced and popularized in Ghost. The headlights are adorned with intricate, laser-cut starlights that create a visual connection with the interior Starlight headliner, adding to the surprise and delight of the Phantom's nocturnal presence.
The Phantom's side profile retains the characteristic Rolls-Royce short front and long rear overhangs, long wheelbase and wide C-pillar, the latter offering greater privacy for occupants. The silhouette retains the elegant key lines running from the Spirit of Ecstasy to the tapered rear end. The "split-belt" line begins at the front fender and curves gently towards the rear door, emphasizing the car's long proportions from dashboard to axle before gently sloping down to the lantern-like taillights. The heavily undercut 'gun line' creates a strong shadow and visually signals the brand's unrivaled 'Magic Carpet Ride'.
The side profile is further enhanced by a set of new wheels. A 3D milled stainless steel wheel with triangular facets is available in a fully or partially polished finish for commission. Alternatively, Phantom can be decked out with a truly elegant disc wheel, reminiscent of the romance of 1920s Rolls-Royce automobiles. Manufactured in both polished stainless steel and black lacquer, this disc wheel perfectly embodies the feel of flying on land.
In response to Phantom customers who previously requested dark chrome grille surround, black hood rails, windshield surround and side frame finishers, these are now available to order. This aesthetic now allows Rolls-Royce to transform the Phantom into the brightest of light or the darkest of dark apparitions.
