In 2021, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars made a historic announcement that would shape the marque’s history forever. Rolls-Royce Motor Cars declared its commitment to electric technology by both announcing Spectre, an all-electric car with first customer deliveries in the fourth quarter of 2023, and that by the end of 2030, the marque’s entire portfolio would be fully electric. Since this significant moment in the storied history of Rolls-Royce, Spectre has been on a remarkable journey, including completing a highly demanding testing programme, spanning 2.5 million kilometres. Last October, Spectre was unveiled to the world at the Home of Rolls-Royce in West Sussex, England, and response from across the globe has been overwhelmingly positive.
Now, ahead of first client deliveries later this year, Spectre made its Malaysian debut on 5 September in Kuala Lumpur. The world’s first ultra-luxury electric super coupé, on a regional tour, is being shown to clients and media alike, providing a look into Rolls-Royce’s electric future.
Spectre heralds the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and the start of the marque’s all-electric era. Spectre represents a promise made, a prophecy kept and a remarkable undertaking. Spectre demonstrates how perfectly Rolls-Royce is suited to electrification. By the end of 2030, its entire product portfolio will be fully electric.
The marque has a long-standing connection with electric technologies; in 1900, Rolls-Royce co-founder Charles Rolls prophesised an electric future for the motor car. Having experienced an electric vehicle named The Columbia Electric Carriage, he foresaw the technology’s suitability as a clean, noiseless alternative to the internal combustion engine – providing there was sufficient infrastructure to support it. In 2011, Rolls-Royce showcased a fully electric Experimental Phantom concept named 102EX. This was followed by 103EX, a dramatic design study that anticipated a bold electric future for the marque.
Pricing in Malaysia starts from* RM 2,000,000 (before options and taxes).

ROLLS-ROYCE SPECTRE – KEY TECHNICAL DATA
SPECTRE CO2 EMISSIONS AND CONSUMPTION FIGURES
*WLTP: Power consumption: 2.6 – 2.8 mi/kWh / 23.6 – 22.2 kWh/100km
CO2 emissions: 0 g/km
*Official data on fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, power consumption and electric range were determined in accordance with the mandatory measurement procedure and comply with Regulation (EU) 715/2007 valid at the time of type approval.
*WLTP information considers any special equipment in ranges. For vehicles that have been type-tested since January 1st, 2021, the official information no longer exists according to the NEDC, but only according to the WLTP. For more information on the WLTP and NEDC measurement procedures, see WLTP: new times, new rules.
Range and power consumption figures shown for comparability purposes. These figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon several factors including the starting charge of the battery, accessories fitted (post-registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load.
