2021 Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended Is Longing For You

Your driver is probably a great person because you compensate him well. But he has his own life aside from your backseat directions and commentary on the upcoming election. That is why more legroom will keep the conversation to a minimum. That’s because the 2021 Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended is longing for you.

One of the many benefits of moving the Ghost to a new chassis is the ability to add length without compromising comfort or suspension. The aluminum spaceframe is relatively easy to modify, compared to the steel Ghosts of the past. Adding 6.7 inches of rear legroom not only adds to the ride quality, but it was also done with care to not disrupt their “Post Opulence” styling.

This was done by extending the rear doors, rockers, and roof without altering their trademark lines. New “Serenity Seats” recline almost flat to mimic a business jet interior. The champagne fridge was designed with advice from a Master Sommelier, his advice to keep the temperature at 51 degrees made it to production. The cabin has 220 lbs of sound and heat insulation which is easily moved by their revised 6.75-liter V12. With 671 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque, you and your driver will not have a worry in the world. Click the button to learn more from our dealers and stay with us for all your Rolls-Royce news.
