Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II Launched in India: A New Era of Luxury Begins

Rolls-Royce has officially unveiled the Ghost Series II in India, setting a new standard for opulence and cutting-edge technology. As the successor to one of the brand’s most successful models, this update enhances both luxury and performance. With three distinct variants available—the standard Ghost Series II, the Black Badge Ghost Series II, and the Ghost Extended Series II—buyers now have more options to tailor their Rolls-Royce experience.

First introduced in 2009, the Ghost quickly became a cornerstone of the Rolls-Royce lineup, appealing to a new generation of luxury car buyers. Its 2020 second-generation update further refined its design and technology, offering enhanced customization and dynamic driving capabilities. 

Now, with the Ghost Series II, the brand continues this tradition by incorporating subtle design updates, new personalization options, and advanced digital enhancements. Let’s take a look into what we get in the Ghost Series II:

Striking Exterior Enhancements

The Ghost Series II retains its signature elegant silhouette while incorporating refreshed design elements. The front grille now features illumination, giving it a more commanding presence, while updated LED headlamps and daytime running lights provide a modernized look. New chrome accents create a "floating" effect around the Spirit of Ecstasy emblem, enhancing the car’s visual appeal. The rear features a reworked tail lamp setup inspired by the Spectre model, adding a contemporary touch.

Two new 22-inch wheel designs—one fully polished and one part-polished—further elevate the car’s aesthetics, offering buyers more ways to personalize their Rolls-Royce.

Lavish Interior with Advanced Technology

Inside, the Ghost Series II seamlessly blends traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art technology. The highlight is the Central Information Display, which spans from pillar to pillar within a glass panel and is powered by the SPIRIT operating system. This digital interface allows customers to synchronize the display’s color scheme with their vehicle’s interior or exterior, adding a new level of personalization.

The upgraded 18-speaker, 1,400-watt Bespoke Audio system delivers an immersive sound experience. Integrated within the cabin’s structure, low-frequency speakers use the car’s aluminum frame as resonance chambers, while speakerless exciters within the Starlight Headliner enhance audio quality. Active microphones continuously adjust the sound balance to optimize acoustics.

The Ghost Series II also features an updated rear entertainment system, supporting independent streaming from two devices, as well as an advanced interface for managing seat functions, climate controls, and connectivity options such as Bluetooth headphones, USB-C charging ports, and an improved Wi-Fi hotspot.

Performance and Engineering Excellence

Under the hood, the Ghost Series II houses a 6.75-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. This setup delivers effortless power and smooth acceleration, with maximum torque available at low RPM for an unmatched driving experience.

The Planar Suspension System, featuring an Upper Wishbone Damper, ensures unparalleled ride comfort and stability. The five-link rear axle and self-leveling air suspension contribute to a seamless ride, while the Flagbearer System, equipped with road-scanning cameras, adjusts suspension settings in real time for optimal handling. Additionally, the Satellite Aided Transmission utilizes GPS data to pre-select gears based on upcoming road conditions, ensuring a smooth and intuitive drive.
