Rolls-Royce has released the first teaser photo of its facelifted Ghost sedan, or Ghost Series II as the British carmaker elegantly calls it. Rolls-Royce is known for not operating major styling changes when its models reach their mid-life, and that was confirmed two years ago when the Phantom Series II models were introduced.
The same approach is expected for the Ghost as well, especially since the facelift comes much sooner for the BMW 7-Series-based sedan than for the Phantom. The brand’s flagship sedan saw its first restyling nine years after its introduction, while the Ghost has only entered its fifth year on the market.
The teaser photo released by Rolls-Royce was joined by a short description saying: “After five years as the cornerstone of Rolls-Royce’s sustainable growth success worldwide, this mid-life update is a showcase for the most recent technological advances from Rolls-Royce enrobed in a considered exterior design revision.”
The most obvious change that can be observed from the photo is the shape of the headlights. They are not rectangular anymore and appear to use LED technology. For the rest of the changes, we’ll have to wait for the car’s world debut at the Geneva Motor Show.
