Thanks for watching! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Finally, a car we can all afford.
@@hassyg4083 easy, its a 2015
what's wrong with a 2006 Corolla it's a great car :)@@hassyg4083
Yes i can afford YT to watch it on. :d
easy, its a 2023@@hassyg4083
@@hassyg4083 HAAA!!! Had you fooled! It's a 2010.
I love that Rolls Royce still has physical controls for most frequently used duties and reasonably sized screens. I wish more mainstream brands would return to this simplicity instead of adding more screens and menus for us to search through while driving.
CON .?
This is so perfect for a Rolls! Quiet, smooth, no vibration and the range doesn't even matter, no one is driving cross country in a Rolls.
I would, if I owned one. I'm sure there are more people like Harry's Garage, who use these cars for touring
I disagree on "no one." If you ever been to cross country rallies, you'll see Rolls Royces of different models are part of the group.
So, everything that the petrol Rolls Royces of old were but with the benefit of the glorious half-to-an-hour charging stop if you want to take it on a drive. And yes I know that marketing bollocks they’re pushing, that the RR’s owner has their own jet to go the distance etc. Still, it being an EV doesn’t make it any better.
@@hassyg4083yeah but the people that drive a Rolls will either be flown in one, or they’ll probably have a longer range Rolls at hand
Electric car sucks.
I think EVs truly shine in the luxury space. All silence, all torque.
I agree. Make luxury cars and every day commuter cars electric, leave the gas engines to sports cars
And all the queues to the charger. Very dignified.
I'd still rather have the glorious v12
I think initially - but I'd hate to see what happens to luxury vehicles that are mechanically fine but with battery degradation and luxury vehicle small volume future support... it'll be a shame if a car with that much invested in interior and build quality becomes a garage display because the batteries are dead and there's no replacement.
@@mauripekkarinen1fore sure i need a V12 to go only in the max, 60mph with a bunch of fat pick up trucks cutting off the road lol
It’s actually criminal how nice some cars can be. I know I likely will never be able to afford a car like this but to have this amount of luxury in a simple car as fabulous
I can't, same, but I just wanna drive it for a week or even just for one session haha. Just wanna experience the ride
Hey don't say that. What's stopping you from making enough money? Anybody can do it but you must believe in your self first to have any chance. I believe in you man!
For a 400K+ car though, I think the interior is starting to look a bit dated.
If I'm paying almost half a million dollars I want to feel a bit more special.
Sure, the car itself has special attributes, especially externally, but the price is pretty high in my opinion.
Obviously its the kind of car that exist for people to spend money on, and its for the older generation, but, I think the 7 series of s-class offers 90% of the RR's luxury while having better designed interiors and tech.
@@jason401. What a ridiculous comment. What's stopping him from entering the top 0.00002484532% of mankind? Gee I DONT KNOW!
@@t8506 well that percentage was just not true at all lol. more like the top 1 percent but ok. If you seriously wanted this car you could.
I have seen plenty of people with ridiculously priced cars with a 200k dollar house just because the car was the only thing they ever cared about. Most people can afford a 800k dollar house. Ok so 500k for this and 150-300k for your house. Might seem crazy but people like cars enough to do this wether you want to believe it or not.
and look up how many people are in that 1 percent or how many people own a Rolls Royce. probably a decently big number. you think when they were younger and told people they'd have a rolls Royce people believed them? no. think elons musks family would've believed him? no. but he made it happen. Elon musk, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates are no different from you and me and they could buy hundreds of these.
It's nothing impossible if you have the motivation but clearly you never will with that mindset
audio system is stellar, I genuinely heard instruments I never did in the sample played in other car reviews as well. The sonic range is alive and separation is highly defined while the bass isn't punchy it definitely is present, crisp and detailed.
No company is more suited to EV technology than Rolls. They’ve spent decades trying to make their combustion engines behave like electric motors, their cars were already obscenely heavy, and range is of absolutely no concern to their owners. If the trip is more than 100 miles, they’re taking their jet or helicopter.
8:23 Thats a beautiful start up sound
The sound system is incredible, Wow.
The cruise ship analogy was very insightful. I've never heard the driving experience of a Rolls described that way, but it makes total sense.
Really like your POV videos, keep them up. You're one of the only few car guys around that actually know what they're doing and it's fun to watch even though I'm not an enthusiast
Finally, you’re the first uploader of POV drive of RR Spectre. I can’t wait to see your videos
This truly is peak Rolls Royce. This is the first drive video where your weird stereo sound clip is not only appropriate but sounds truly incredible. Wow. Just...wow. And well presented...by someone I would refer to as "a kid" LOL. Nice job.
That was really amazing,you sir just lived life to the fullest.
I once had near zero pedal driving in a Mercedes S class, the distance control was so good that it took care of accelerating and braking all on its own. It would smoothly stop at a red light as long as there was another car in front of me. I'm not a fan of fully assisted driving but for your typical stop-and-go in city traffic it's really nice to have.
thanks for the review. i'm 16 and looking for my first ride, and this video really cleared my head.
Great work from substitute topher!
Just what I need for my Target run!😀
Awesome review! GLORIOUS AUTOMOBILE!! Thank you! 🌠
I was waiting for you to review this...your channel style suits these cars very well
I had no clue these were coming out. Not like I can afford it anyways but great job on this Topher and SubTopher! Cheers 🍻
A thing of beauty, luxury, and raw power.. the RR
This car costs as much as some HOUSES in the US! Crazy, and what a gorgeous car
Man this is some modern day art deco beauty

A work of art ... absolutely beautiful.
Super car. Thanks for filming
Man, that rear 3/4 is WEIIIRRDD. Definitely have to see it in person!
Looks like a nice combination of maroon, brown, and a hint of pink and purple. Really nice.
I call all Rolls Royce's an art. They are not just cars.
the sound system is so unique fr!!
ooooooo, that cold start. wow, the exhaust engineers really did a great job on that one. the note is so smooth yet aggressive. nice low consistent growl and minimal drone. Reminds me of the LC500.
there's no exhaust and also there's nothing to start
👑cadillac celestiq
The recording of the bass in the sound system test made my headphones vibrate! Damn! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, this one appeals to me. I've always loved how quiet they are inside. The wider grill is such an improvement. Interior design and user-friendly cockpit and controls for once are not garish. It does make a statement of subtlety. I tend to carry only 1 passenger so rear legroom is not a concern. For the most part it's just me. Sold. 🎉
Bentley all day everyday over this
Does Bentley have an ev competitor for this ?
Currently no@@daisywhite1489
I think that might be the most beautiful vehicle (and spec) of all-time … whew. 🔥
It's pretty wild how different RR Coupes feel from other cars. I haven't felt a Spectre, but I've driven the Dawn, Wraith, and Cullinan - I'm guessing by what you said at 13:50 that it still has that completely different feeling from other cars. It feels like you're driving a small boat being pulled on pavement and gliding through the road, and the steering is so light that it doesn't even make sense. You can steer the car with your pinky pressed on the wheel. It takes a few moments for the different feeling to sink in, your brain is kind of like "Are we driving a car right now?".
All that being said, I gotta say, I hate that instrument cluster. I think they should have kept what they had in 2023 - the instrument clusters was so bright, almost looked like crystal/diamond, and it had a retro luxury feel. To go to a display like that just makes it feel like BMW had too much to do with it.
1:01 Oooo the color Morganite looks like a berry smoothie we get from smoothie king!!! 5:37 also the interior theme is like a red velvet cake
“The song we all know and love” THE SONG OF OUR PEOPLE
What is the name
I don't know how you can look at that, can call it pink. It's maroon in my opinion
rose pink maybe?
A light maroon
Pink/Maroon
@@FIREB4III’m colorblind. And I see the color of guava juice. Which is kinda on the pink side. You got a point.
Looks closer to burgundy imo
Great review!
Ahh, Rolls Royce. One of the classiest and most elegant luxury car brands ever, like my old '94 Benz C-Class sedan I drove. Also, the Concorde airplane. Nostalgia. 👌
That Jeep driver must have some spectacular insurance for how close they were following at times.
One of the best looking Grand Coupe...I will add to my fleet..
Rolls Royce hosts you and feeds you in return for positive reviews
This is more like a Wraith successor to me because of the similar body design. I wish Rolls Royce offered full non leather interior options across all their models.
The shape of this car is gorgeous
Its so weird having back seats that nice in a coupe
This is the first EV that I (if I ever were to afford one) would appreciate. It fits with the luxury platform.
You guys are gonna be shook but this is the first time i see this shade of pink and it's gorgeous
Music is phenomenal.
love the videos
I think an EV Rolls makes a lot of sense with all the torque and silence of an EV. People and business having these have a garage, so they will never sit with the ''peasants'' at the public charging station. They're also used to chauffeur people around town, so range will never be an issue. I wonder if clients will dig it or prefer the classic aspect of the silky smooth V12.
6,500lbs coupe..
Thats wild
Now it will be even more quiet!
One of my dream cars
Damn the Bespoke Audio System is super dope
where door umbrella(
upd. found it, it`s the front fender umbrella now :)
What filming equipment do you use for pov drives?
I can feel the depreciation already
I love this car. Its amazing.
How many vertebrae did you destroy driving this beast around? Color scheme is gorgeous
I wonder how hard it would be to make the “RR” weighted on a gyro like the wheel center caps
Thetopher the rolls Royce spectre rides on the same platform called architecture of luxury shared with the phantom and ghost and cullinan
The startup chime sounds like Guts from Beserk theme song.
it just pops!
It's , Collection !
Reflection of dash in a windshield would be a big problem for me. All brite colors have this issue, that in direct sun you almost cannot see threw
Just EPIC 🏆
I actually think it's one of the best looking Rolls designs in a long time. I don't really get the use case for a Rolls coupe though - is it a Sunday cruiser? Daily driver? Just a car to take up and down Rodeo ?
Its definitely a sunday cruiser, (if i owned one of these) i could imagine myself just using it every weekend to do a little joyride or maybe take it grocery shopping or some sort
I personally would rather have 4 doors I really hate having to move the seat just to get a freaking passenger seat. But I really love the interior besides the fact it looks claustrophobic.
If one is in the back seat the head rest on front seats are always in the way. There needs to be another design I think
❤❤😂
I’m no designer but common sense says rear light’s design is not beautiful and in proportion to the whole design! they could use light bar too which is more timeless and sort of trend.
lmao look at that cute lil screen that is smaller than my phone, thats what nearly 1 million gets you i suppose
Great Videos! I just would love to know like what your job title is. All I care about is cars and would love to do what you do
There is no HMI feature in the digital instrument cluster? Like media, navigation, etc
Could I ask what is the music track title and artist ? Great review of a very nice car
Is it really the successor of the phantom? I would have said more the wraith?
Absolutely Lovable 💸
The center console reminds me of the Mercedes GLK facelift.
With this car I'm wearing only my socks or brand new shoes straight out the box!
Interior is so Rolls Royce!!! Beautiful Hate the exterior look and color
But I'll take it for $49,500 😀
I miss huge stylish coupes ❤
This is very luxury
None been delivered in the UK yet and its our Brand and Factory :(
Great Car
Butter! 🧈
I haven't found a reviewer who disliked this vehicle yet.
AAAAAMAZING
It’s clean 🔥🔥💯💯
this and the lucid air is the ONLY EV car i would buy at the moment. i love that rolls Royce made it look like a actual car. all these brans are making electric cars and they always looks futurey and just absolutely ugly they need to make them look like actual cars and people would buy them more.
Reminds me of beautiful Cadillac
I know it’s supposed to be the Phantom coupe successor but my mind just thinks Wraith Wraith Wraith
Massive 6500 pound COOP. Great for chickens, right?
What is the name of the song playing at the 23:00 mark?
if you are in tight parking space how does the door operate?
What’s the difference between a “coup” and a “coupé”?
Pinkish. If you’re an artist and thinking about colour, “Rose Madder” comes to mind, which is somewhere between pink and brown.
I dont know why but the steering wheel is massive. Maybe a little bit to big?
