Rolls Royce officially teases Wraith coupe

Preparing to introduce its all-new coupe offering, Rolls Royce has officially released the first teaser image of the Wraith, which is said to be the fastest Rolls Royce ever. As a refresher, the Wraith is the company’s high-performance coupe based on the already-fast four-door luxury sedan, the Ghost.

All we get to see in the clear teaser image is a shot coupe’s roofline which looks really sleek. When compared to the four-door Ghost, the Wraith appears to be featuring much longer rear-hinged doors.

Under the hood, the Wraith is likely to be powered by the 6.6-litre V12 engine found in the Ghost. However, in keeping with the high-performance spirit of the Wraith, the same engine is said to be re-tuned to make over 600PS of power. The updated engine will be linked to the standard version of the ZF eight-speed automatic gearbox which will continue to send the power to the rear wheels.

The Rolls Royce Wraith will be officially unveiled at the upcoming 2013 Geneva Auto Show and will go on sale later this year with prices ranging from Rs 1.8 crore to Rs 2.5 crore.
