Based on the Rolls-Royce Ghost sedan, the Wraith is the company’s most powerful model ever, with its 6.6-liter turbo V12 powerplant delivering 624 horsepower. This also makes it the fastest production Rolls-Royce in the company’s history, as it sprints from standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.2 seconds and reaches an electronically-limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph).
Nevertheless, the Wraith is not only about performance numbers. As with any Rolls-Royce, its main quality has to be effortlessness, that so-called “waftability” that Rolls-Royce automobiles are renowned all over the world for.
The Wraith is said to feel equally at home on country roads as on crowded city streets, as pointed out by Philip Harnett, product manager for the Rolls-Royce coupe, while he sits behind the wheel of the fastback-style coupe.
You can discover the Wraith’s main features, both technical and equipment-related, as presented by Harnett, in the video below.
