Rolls-Royce reveals new Phantom: Automotive art that it promises to be 'the most silent car in the world'

13:00 • 28.07.17

The quietest and most technically advanced Rolls-Royce Phantom ever was launched in London Thursday night, the Daily Mail reports.


The flagship Rolls-Royce is designed to whisk the world’s wealthiest around in near silence and the lap of luxury – and it comes with its own dashboard art gallery for those who can afford the £350,000 price tag.


The new Phantom even paves the way for a future all-electric Rolls-Royce, ready to comply with Government moves to ban the sale of new ‘conventional’ petrol and diesel vehicles from 2040.
The firm said their new Phantom is “the most silent motor car in the world” and the quietest Rolls-Royce ever made –at least for the pampered chauffeur-driven occupant in the back.


The launch was hailed as another big vote of confidence in Britain – with the big Roller exported around the globe and considered the pinnacle of British automotive craftsmanship.
