Rolls Royce Spectre Black Badge details
Performance
A full 659hp and 1,075Nm is unlocked via a new Infinity Mode, sending power to all four wheels. While the Black Badge shares its 102kWh battery with the Spectre, an additional 82hp and 175Nm make the performance-oriented derivative even more desirable. This also results in a faster 0-100kph time of 4.1 seconds with a range of 493km to 530km. Tweaks to the chassis, steering and roll stabilization system have also been made to handle the extra output while maintaining the ride comfort.

Design and features
Exterior: Rolls-Royce has introduced a new Vapour Violet paint and 23-inch forged aluminium wheels with the new Spectre. Also, a blacked-out Spirit of Ecstasy emblem and front grille make the Black Badge variant stand out. Rolls-Royce is also offering buyers a choice of 44,000 colors to choose from with the Spectre Black Badge EV.
Interior: Unique features of the model include a lit-up grille (maximum of 5 colors), treadplates and over 5,500 ‘stars’ embedded in the dashboard, which the brand calls Illuminated Fascia. Additionally, there are multiple colors for the driver’s display and other cabin bits finished in either carbon fibre or fine metal.
Rolls Royce Spectre Black Badge India launch, price
The Spectre Black Badge’s launch in India may be likely as Rolls-Royce currently sells the Cullinan and Ghost Black Badge models here. We expect the new electric vehicle to go on sale for about Rs 8.1 crore, which is a Rs 1.5 crore average premium just like the other Black Badge cars (see table below). For reference, our Rolls-Royce Spectre review noted a price of Rs 7.6 crore (before options).
