    • @thebitlot
      @thebitlot หลายเดือนก่อน

      Luxury is almost always a matter of scarcity; have vs have nots. When touchscreens stopped becoming exotic and started becoming the standard, capitalizing on rich people's nostalgia was a small but powerful play.

    • @Peter-mj6lz
      @Peter-mj6lz หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@thebitlot There is probably more to it as Rolls Royce didn’t use more screens when they were less common. For example, screens offer a lot of visual information, but I think they are more laggy than knobs/buttons. And then even if they aren’t I think it’s normal to associate a screen with more lag. This mentally makes a screen seem less luxury feeling as it doesn’t just work and is more complicated. Classic luxury cars weren’t complicated, they were just designed to do what they do well. Also screens lack a tactile experience. I think luxury is mainly about how it makes the customer feel, it’s about quality over quantity. Screens offer quantity more than quality if it comes to using it for driver controls.
      Also information overload can cause anxiety, maybe that’s a reason they didn’t put temperature numbers on the heating knobs. You don’t need a number to tell you whether you are too warm or too cold, your body would just know.

    26:02 one of the main reasons it costs $520,000.00 is not because they used the "best" materials, it is because the people who buy them WANT to pay more than anyone else. It's perceived value.
    I worked for a cabinet company and they made high end kitchen cabinets. We installed one, $67,000.00. The neighbour came over, saw it, pulled the boss aside "I want one too, but I want it to cost $78,000. I don't care what you do, that's what I want to spend"
    it's called bragging rights. "I paid $5000 for the starry night emblem on the dashboard".

      Yep. That's why "most people cant feel that 1%". Because it doesn't exist. This car has the same leather you'll find in the S class, and in the G Wagon, and in the 7 series, because there's only so much you can make out of raw materials. Hell, it looks like they aren't even bothering to make them look different to BMWs anymore. People that buy these buy them because they want to say they paid 500k for a Rolls Royce, they dont want a 100k 7 series. The RR badge is what you pay for, and what makes it worth it for those who pay, is the fact that it's not a Mercedes badge.

    An excellent review and analysis, you captured the ethos of Rolls Royce. They don’t make cars, they are the purveyor of luxury goods. This side of the pond when discussing range, Rolls Royce explained they consulted their customers. The range is adequate because beyond it their customers would use either a private jet or helicopter. Though the most famous saying from Rolls Royce, they say “If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it.”

    The test cars that RR had of this model were so quiet, that people actually became sick driving them: the interplay between sound/vibration, how our eyes and inner ear perceive movement is a very tricky balancing act and the total absence of a certain level and type of NVH while driving can cause nausea, dizziness etc type issues. RR had to reintroduce certain sounds back into the car (not sure, but believe not all were audible) to fix the issue.

In my mind the V12 was simply a means to an end, since V12s have always provided supreme torque and unparalleled smoothness, which is exactly what a Rolls-Royce needs. But you know what gives greater torque and even greater smoothness? Electric motors. It's a no-brainer, especially for a Rolls-Royce, where the added weight from a battery pack doesn't matter in the slightest.

      Digital license is quite common now. Nothing special

    Rolls never ever make sense on paper. I had the privilege of driving a 60's era Rolls, and one of the first S-Class's from 89. The S-Class was absolutely beautiful to drive, something which I never thought I would ever top. Until, I drove the Rolls. My God. I have never experienced such a beautiful driving machine. It's just something else, even in a car that was 58 years old at that point, it was just.... next level.

      True luxury is not needing to know exactly what temperature your climate control is, only "warmer" and "cooler".

    Doug is always sporting a new Costco outfit every new episode. It's not about Gucci. It's about basic self-respect and dignity. And why would a nose picker be interested in a Rolls-Royce to begin with? There's a big world in between pretentiously overdressed and a total slob. I think it is called "presentable".

      I was about to post this at the top, but I'll do it here. "Doug is the kind of guy who reviews a $525K Rolls wearing $45 worth of clothes."
