Rolls-Royce unveiled its first pure electric vehicle “Spectre” (Spectre) on Thursday, which will be road tested in December this year and delivered to customers for the first time in 2023.

According to reports, this pure electric Rolls-Royce will conduct road tests around the world, and the cumulative mileage is expected to reach 2.5 million kilometers.

This pure electric vehicle will be the beginning of Rolls-Royce's full electrification. Rolls-Royce CEO Torston Mueller Uterfus said that Rolls-Royce will be fully electrified in 2030.

This is a landmark step in the history of Rolls-Royce, and it's incredible that one of the brand's founders foresaw this day 120 years ago.

As early as April 1900, four years before Rolls-Royce was founded, the brand's co-founder Charles Rolls (Charles Rolls) stated that the future of luxury cars would be battery-powered power systems.

After riding in an early electric car from American automaker Columbia, Rawls said, “The electric car is completely noiseless and clean. There's no smell or vibration, and if a fixed charging station can be arranged, they can be very useful.”
