Rolls-Royce

Wraith

Power, Style, Drama

When Rolls-Royce Motor Cars came to update its Phantom family of models, the words of company co-founder Sir Henry Royce were “Take the best that exists and make it better: when it does not exist design it.” Rolls-Royce Wraith echoes the spirit of these historic endeavours, pushing the boundaries of design and engineering, challenging perceptions and delivering the most dynamic, involving driving experience in the marque’s 109 year history. It didn’t exist, so Rolls-Royce designed it.

In its design, Rolls-Royce Wraith presents a masterpiece of elegant simplicity, exuding poise and the promise of dynamism. There is a sense that this car is ready to move with purpose on its driver’s command. Grace and beauty define the exterior presentation. The swept lines of the fastback, a style whose origins can be found in 1930s automotive design, most clearly signal its purposeful character, one which hints gently at the noir. Performance complements the drama of exterior styling. A shorter wheelbase, wider rear track, 624 bhp / 465kW derived from the twin turbo V12 and a 0-60 time of 4.4 seconds (0-62, 4.6 seconds) give expression to the car’s dynamic looks. But Wraith is no GT bruiser; it is every inch a refined and luxurious RollsRoyce, a car where the sense of arrival and joy of the journey are as important as the canvas upon which it is drawn.

Effortless performance, luxurious interior Wraith debuts the most intelligent drive train ever to feature in a RollsRoyce, including the application of ground-breaking technologies like Satellite Aided Transmission (SAT). This processes GPS data to predict the driver’s next move and automatically select the right gear for the road ahead. Unnecessary gear changes are thus avoided, augmenting the famous Rolls-Royce trait of waftability and ensuring Wraith is constantly

poised to deliver on its dynamic promise. Following a sweeping bend, for example, the optimum gear is always pre-selected for effortless acceleration. Complementing Satellite Aided Transmission, Rolls-Royce Wraith’s further dynamic enhancements include a more direct steering response to aid precision in corners, as well as more dynamic spring and damper settings. Step inside Wraith’s coach doors and there is the feeling of going aboard a luxury yacht. It is a serene space for four occupants, who will be cocooned in a striking and contemporary interior furnished in beautiful materials, surrounded by tactile Phantom-grade leathers. Design details like the expansive Canadel Panelling and blood orange needle tips for speedometer and power reserve gauge hint further at agility, speed and performance. Look upwards however, and Rolls-Royce presents something more traditional - at least for the 21st century. Starlight headliner - offered for the first time beyond the Phantom range - features thousands of tiny fibre optic lamps hand-woven by craftspeople into the roof lining. It remains one of the company’s most endearing and popular features.

Unique in character In terms of sheer presence Wraith is clearly cut from the same luxurious cloth as today’s Phantom and Ghost models. Yet it displays cues that can be traced through past generations; effortless poise with accentuated rear overhang, elegant coach doors and, of course, the Spirit of Ecstasy adorning the grille. But this is a very different model to those of the last century - and stands alone among Rolls-Royce models today. A wider rear track, longer bonnet, raked glass house and deeply recessed pantheon grille, unite in presenting a truly focused car, a Rolls-Royce with its own unique character.

Luxurious interior Rolls-Royce Wraithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coach doors open to present an inviting, harmonious interior space - one with every possible comfort, delivered in a thoroughly modern way. The eye is immediately drawn to the contemporary panelling that elegantly adorns the inside of the doors and sweeps round the entire lower space. Finished in either wood or leather, the effect draws the eye quickly around the cabin, similar in dynamic effect to the clean fastback style of the exterior.

Performance Wraith is the most powerful RollsRoyce ever to have played host to the famous Spirit of Ecstasy figurine. It develops 624 bhp, from a 6.6 litre twin-turbo V12, an engine that features direct petrol injection to maximise efficiency and reduce emissions. Should they wish to take advantage of the extraordinary power at their disposal, drivers may choose to be propelled from rest to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds (0-62 mph, 4.6 seconds) and on to an electronically governed top speed of 155 mph.

Body The body has been engineered with a double front bulkhead to help insulate the interior from engine noise. It is constructed from steel sections and then wrapped in steel panels, which are brazed by hand. This allows a seamless join, which is then sanded by hand until it is perfect. In total, 6,364 individual spot-welds are applied to Rolls-Royce Wraith. In addition, 900m laser welded seams between the side panel and c-pillar and fully laser welded water drain in trunk compartment maintain the aesthetic purity of the car.

Taking the best sound system, and making it better Rolls-Royce employs experts for all aspects of high-end craftsmanship, from hand-painted coach lines to finely-tuned audio systems. Today Wraith presents a bespoke audio system that has been specially optimised by experts for stereo and multi-channel sources, that naturally - incorporates the finest hardware and latest advances in connectivity. Finely tuned by Rolls-Royce experts, the system takes the best features and components to produce a sound that is rich in quality and depth. DIRAC settings, ‘studio’ and ‘theatre’ guarantee optimal aural pleasure, for a pure, original sound or ‘larger than live’ sensation within the car. The fully active 18-channel amplifier delivers surround sound through 18 speakers. This includes two central bass speakers located in the boot, seven tweeters, seven mid-range and two ‘exciter’ speakers in the headliner bringing the sound sensation to ear level.

Safety and Technology As one would expect of a RollsRoyce, no technical avenue has been left unexplored to ensure occupant safety. The Advanced Crash Management system (ACSM) for example, utilises sensors placed around the car to make 2,000 measurements per second. This data ensures the car deploys the correct safety features in the event of an accident. A combination of seat belts with force limiters and smart airbags help protect occupants in the event of a severe impact. Those in the front seats have the reassurance of knee airbags and intelligent front airbags which feature graduated output and adaptive vents ensuring that the strength of bag deployment directly responds to the severity of a collision. In the event of a lateral collision, an integrated head airbag system, whose curtain extends to cover the side window areas in their entirety, protect against an impact with the vehicle structure, as well as from glass splinters. Side airbags in the front seat offer further extended protection.

Wraith incorporates a selection of technologies designed to improve illumination at night, protecting occupants and improving safety for other road users. Night vision technology, for example, now includes warning messages, as well as automatic brake preparation to support evasive action should an accident be imminent. Infrared cameras located in the upper corner of the grille are used to project a thermal image on-screen, an image which highlights warm objects, but which also identifies specific hazards on the road between 15m and 200 m ahead. In the event of an accident Auto eCall ensures that the emergency services are immediately aware of the incident’s location. If a driver is unable to respond to telephone calls, the car automatically alerts emergency services to its location via GPS positioning.

Conclusion Wraith is a car for the curious, the confident and the bold. In its fast back design is a culmination of luxury, refinement and craftsmanship. It is the most potent and technologically advanced Rolls-Royce in history.

When a passion becomes a profession

As a child, Antonio always loved motorbikes. He’d spend hours in the local garage watching the mechanics at work, dreaming of the day when he would be able to buy one for himself. Many years later, Antonio’s son, Daniel, started racing when he was only 8 years old, having inherited his father’s passion for bikes. They signed-up for track days at Jerez, Almería... in fact anywhere within Andalucía they could. At just 13, Danny was racing his Dad’s CBR 600.

Over the years Danny raced in the “Campeonato Andalúz de Velocidad” and the “Campeonato/ Open de la Extremadura”, finally reaching 5th place in the overall category, alongside semiprofessionals who had their own team of mechanics, specially prepared bikes and generous sponsors. Danny only had his Dad and a few good friends who helped in any way they could. Now in Jardín Botánico, La Cala, Mijas Costa, they both have a motorbike shop called Neumatix where they sell and fit reasonablypriced main brand tyres, do servicing, oil changes, breaks, etc., as well as having a well-stocked

and competitively-priced OUTLET BOUTIQUE. Their opening hours are Monday to Friday, from 10 - 2 and 4 - 8, Saturdays from 10 - 2.
