2011 Rolls-Royce Ghost Review

    Rolls-Royce Ghost is the most powerful car that Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has produced. However, Rolls-Royce power is delivered very differently to other cars. This is an elegant way mimes some have described as being designed to slow the pulse, not increase it.

    The principle of simplicity extends to the act of running Rolls-Royce Ghost. The host of software engineering and complex technology under the surface are used to make driving easier and more enjoyable, not to interfere or be confused.
     

    2011 Rolls-Royce Ghost

    Rolls-Royce Ghost is more focused on the driver and any car Rolls-Royce before. The driver sits in a slightly elevated position behind the wheel, described as the position of authority. This makes the outlook much clearer. The fascia was kept deliberately clear, it is spacious in design and has an intuitive interface. The controls are well modeled, the most important functions highlighted by chrome accents. The soft light in the lights of the dashboard through the steering wheel lined with black familiar, which in turn uses a set of keys for violin and control ergonomic roller ball.

    The control center screen is hidden behind a veneer panel until their services are required. All features like satellite navigation, telephone, communication and entertainment are posted here and managed through a central rotary controller, flanked shortcut buttons on the front center console.

    The driver assistance systems as an option and the Spirit Technology Rolls-Royce is known for its discretion and comfort. When the driver approaches the vehicle, the optional comfort access allows easy access, opening the door with the key is 1.5 meters and the chrome introduced fresh mango. Once you're in the car, voice control system allows you to select control menus without using the central controller.

    In order to facilitate the maneuvers, the cameras around the car to serve several purposes. Behind the front of the cameras and the top can be combined to give the fish blind eye visible interface or provide a barrier to the recognition of images and the path to estimate the soil back and parking areas.

    Discreetly placed in the network is a night vision camera. When activated, this security device works with pedestrian recognition to detect objects up to 300 meters and displayed on the central dashboard. Car control system receives the infrared images of the camera and taking into account the speed and direction of the vehicle, the class to assess the danger. It then determines the measures, if any, should be taken and if necessary a warning to the driver.

    In the HUD relay important information such as speed and navigation directions on the windshield directly in front of the driver. This information is only visible to the driver and can be customized to display only the required information, and in a suitable position for the driver.

    Lane Departure Warning alerts the driver if the car begins to slide out of his lane. When activated, it uses an integrated camera, just in front of the mirror to monitor road markings and the position of the vehicle. The driver is warned by a subtle vibration through the steering wheel. If the driver uses the directional indicators before and after the shift, the wheel does not vibrate.

    High support beam automatically manages the operation of low beam and high beam during night driving. When activated, the same device used by the Lane Departure Warning system monitors light sources on the front of the vehicle and automatically dips or raises the headlights accordingly. Adaptive directional headlights also improve the illumination of the road and adapt to road conditions, whether rain or fog, or simply the car is turning.

    Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go function to create a driving experience relaxing, especially on long cruises travel, because the activity is not required if the car ahead slows down or speeds up, despite stagnation. Active braking can also go down the hill to a curve at constant speed and the vehicle speed limiter communicates with the Dynamic Stability Control system reduces the vehicle speed in the curve and the safety and comfort can be compromised.

    CONCEPT

    In the fall of 2006, the Paris Motor Show: Rolls-Royce Motor Cars announced that a new model was launched from the series. The new car will be producing and selling is a turn of the decade. Only other factors confirmed that the stadium was that it was less than the Rolls-Royce Phantom sedan, and priced at somewhere between € 200,000 and € 300 000 before taxes. Speculations on the style and specifications began almost immediately ...

    Little was seen of the new car, known as RR4, until spring 2008, when Rolls-Royce released the first official sketches. The styling is instantly recognizable as a Rolls-Royce, although less traditional than previous models. At that time, Chief Designer, Ian Cameron, said "The RR4 has a more informal presence than the Phantom models with a focus on the conduct of design, this is expressed by its slightly smaller dimensions, but with powerful, proportions is a real and deliberate without compromise .. Rolls-Royce in every sense. "

    As the results of the secret of development models on the road more, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, presented by Rolls-Royce 200EX, a pioneer in the testing of the Rolls-Royce Ghost at the Geneva Show in March 2009. An immediate success, carrying the Rolls-Royce 200EX design cues, but overall a convincing way. It 'was a clear intent.

    That the design team has been sought to create a modern Rolls-Royce, which reached a new dynamism, but remained true to its heritage luxury. They found inspiration in modern furniture, architecture and yachts, but also in the spirit of the 1930s - the sense of adventure and try - as they tried to grasp the nature of this new car.

    "200EX is a modern implementation of the timeless elegance of the Rolls-Royce, violates some of the traditions of the regions, but to preserve the fundamental values ​​that make the brand unique," says CEO Tom Purves. "We look forward to a more informal planning to extend the appeal of the Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, attracting people who appreciate the sophistication of the merger, the new technology and modern style."

    After the concert, 200EX began their world tour, during which more information on future production model became available. It would be powered by a new 6.6-liter V12 unique brand, which produces 563 horsepower and performance figures are phenomenal. This is an intelligent ride air suspension provides unparalleled ride and dynamics. It would be called the Rolls-Royce Ghost.

    "Ghost is one of the most respected names in the automotive industry," said Tom Purves. "It conjures up images of adventure and technical innovation. The first cars bearing the name of ghost were not only known for the impressive reliability and refinement, but also a lot of style and style."

    After a very positive reaction 200EX during the journey, very few changes were made to move production of Rolls-Royce Ghost - a tribute to the achievements of Ian Cameron and significant Helmut Riedl and design teams.

    In September 2009, the new Rolls-Royce Ghost was officially launched in the world.

    The design of the future

    Elegant Rolls-Royce Ghost are dominated by a style of his yacht line "majestic. Great flow seamlessly between finely sculpted surfaces of the horizontal lines that give the definition. Overall, the level of the roof line upward sweeping and low-cut to create a powerful profile, almost as if the car was pushed back. powerful shoulders and sides strongly attract as they flow from the rear fender taillights, while details as an indication that chrome exhaust optional Rolls-Royce Ghost more dynamic.

    While incorporating design elements of classic Rolls-Royce - a high arch, long hood, short front overhang, inclined pillars and sleek tail - Rolls-Royce Ghost informal aura. As centers for contemporary touch wheel self-adjusting xenon headlights and the elaboration of the latest evolution of the grid Rolls-Royce. Here are the parts of the contributions is curved inward, and leaves again in the opening. "We wanted this to be less reminiscent of the traditional style of the Parthenon and more like a stream of consumption," says Ian Cameron.

    A satin finish silver contrast (introduced in the 200EX) is an option for the hood, grille and windshield. The finish is achieved through the establishment of the metallic silver paint on a layer of lacquer, giving a perfect matte finish.

    The key principle is to provide simplicity to the complex executes all Rolls-Royce Phantom. Everything is designed, developed and designed to improve the training and experience driving, not complicate it.

    Within Rolls-Royce Ghost, have the interior design team come with a modern feel while staying true to the tradition of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' quality materials and comfort. It is elegant, frosted lamps and chrome door handles, switches the heart of traditional fiddle and eyeball vents, frosted white rings and refined instrumentation. Deep-carpet may be supplemented by mats lambswool option for a truly luxurious feel.

    Rolls-Royce Ghost came through the gates great. Located in the front doors are integrated Teflon umbrellas. The rear doors are traditional, rear-hinged coach doors opening to a generous 83 degrees. When the passenger is inside, the doors close at the touch of a button. The interior is bathed in natural light, enhanced by the optional panoramic sunroof that stretches from front to back.

    Four-zone automatic climate control can be individually tailored to each passenger, with separate controls for front and rear. Automatic air recirculation, prevention and repair of condensation sun comes through the vents classic eyeball chrome-controlled shut-off piston.

    In its doors wide Rolls-Royce Ghost and high shoulder line, the occupants feel comfortable, pampered and safe. The rear seat intimate lounge is enhanced by its position behind the C-pillar, increasing the feeling of intimacy. Informal seating create a warm atmosphere, its light curve that allows you to convert more easily to the person next to you. Its elevated position gives a clear past the Spirit of Ecstasy electronically withdrawn on the road.

    Single room seats offer an alternative of the standard of living. This allows the addition of a massage function, and also perforated flow of cooling air from the surface of the leather seat. Auxiliary rear climate control allows the passenger to adjust the temperature of the side of the car, without the intrusion of others. Cool bag interior lighting and integrated with the champagne glasses are also available.

    Veneered picnic tables are another option, including the best matched veneers and leather interior as Rolls-Royce Ghost. Mounted behind each front seat, these tables are a traditional Rolls-Royce design inspiration and finished with veneer wood surface is covered with skin behind.

Screens can be adjusted independently of each other, and entertainment can also listen to most of the headphones separately. Six-disc multimedia changer, mounted in the glove box, installed as part of this option.

    ENGINEERING REFERENCE

    When considering a car Rolls-Royce, it is common to think of wood, leather and chrome, but the company has its roots in engineering. The refinement of the final product comes from the desire of its engineers to get the details correct. Long before the interior elements are prepared, experts are working to ensure that the chassis components, powertrain and body functioning in harmony fluid. It's a world where welding is an art and craft are at the nanoscale.

    Rolls-Royce Ghost is built with steel monocoque body, which means that the separation of the frame and body. The advantage of this decline in construction while maintaining the outer dimensions of the interior. So, while Rolls-Royce Ghost is 400 mm shorter than the Phantom sedan general of the interior are comparable.

    The plant was designed with the double front bulkhead and to isolate the interior of the engine noise. It 'made of steel sections and then wrapped in steel panels that are welded by hand. This allows almost seamless interface, which is then hand polished until it is perfect. Overall, the frame includes a Rolls-Royce Ghost 4.9 welding and seam welding, spot welding, and 6988. Bonnet and windscreen surround are finished in polished aluminum.

    Rolls-Royce Ghost Walk on a bed of air. Double wishbone front suspension and multilink rear suspension work with an intelligent man, in every corner electronic air suspension to provide variable damping and refinement that has partnered with Rolls-Royce for more than 100 years.

    The new air suspension, Rolls-Royce Ghost is so sensitive it can detect even the smallest changes. For example, the sensation of movement for a rear seat on one side the other seat, and replace accordingly. The complex computer system reads the inputs from various sensors around the car, the shocks just make the calculations of individual load every 2.5 milliseconds. This not only ensures perfect comfort, but also the precise control and the dynamics of the driver. The air suspension system also includes a lift and kneel before the service, by raising or lowering the Rolls-Royce Ghost 25 mm.

    Ghost Rolls-Royce also has a complex set of electronic tools to keep and put on almost any surface. These include anti-roll stabilization, Dynamic Brake Control and Dynamic Stability Control including Dynamic Traction Control and Cornering Brake Control. These different technologies work together under a dual system of integrated management of the chassis, which means that even when exposed to a test of Rolls-Royce Ghost serious is perfectly clear. Handling and security systems work as one, imperceptible to the driver and passengers in order to maintain optimum contact with the road in all conditions.

    "The challenge for us," said Planning Director Helmut Riedl, "was a prerequisite for maintaining levels of comfort while offering the most modern, interesting dynamic run-time, Rolls-Royce."

    Rolls-Royce Ghost is powered by a brand new 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 engine that is unique to this model. With direct injection, it produces 563bhp - enough to propel the Phantom Rolls-Royce from 0 to 60 km / h in just 4.7 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph. With 780 Nm of torque at just 1500 rpm, the current offer immediate and very smooth.

    Power is transmitted by an eight-speed shift-by-wire, ZF automatic. What this achieves a sense of infinite power surge, which is illustrated in the power reserve meter on the fascia, replacing the most common rev counter. The new engine delivers this performance while emitting only 317g/km of consumption is 20.8 mpg CO2.Fuel / 13.6 l/100 km.

    Safety is always paramount, and the latest technologies used in Rolls-Royce Ghost. On the impact side in the front and rear doors combine with crumple zones at the rear to absorb shocks. Advanced Crash and Safety Management (ACSM) system takes steps 2000 times per second from sensors placed around the vehicle. CMHA use this information - in conjunction with the engine and chassis management systems - to assess the security features to include areas in case of accident. If necessary, the ACSM is activated - for example - belt tensioners and airbags all around the cabin, creating a security zone for all residents.

    LEGENDARY Crafts

    Rolls-Royce has a reputation for producing cars that go beyond the car. There is a magic added to the name, which comes partly from the exquisite attention to detail and quality materials used throughout.

    Through 60 pairs of hands, the production process involves more than 2,000 individual operations and take at least 20 days to complete.

    Rolls-Royce Ghost from the paint shop as a ghost and spent seven days of being painted and polished to perfection. Five steps are necessary for the body of Rolls-Royce Phantom. First, an electro-phosphate coating is applied to protect against corrosion, and a primer, a color layer, and finally two coats of clear varnish. The body is part of sand between your hands and after the last coat is applied, is hand polished for five hours.

    Rolls-Royce Ghost is available in 12 exterior colors, each of which may be inconsistent with optional satin silver lid.

    Leather is an absolute prerequisite impeccable inside a Rolls-Royce. For this reason, our leather comes from animals raised on pasture with no barbed wire, which ensures that there are fewer defects in the leather. All other trademarks are carefully avoided by our qualified laser cutters. At least eight skins used for the interior, and to ensure uniform colors, each skin is a supporter at the same time. The skins are drum dyed instead of painting, which ensures that the color penetrates through the leather. The process also means that the leather is much more flexible, preventing cracking or grinding noise and ensures durability and longevity. All seats and interior panels are made by hand using traditional techniques of furniture by the most skilled in their trade.

    The natural beauty of plates Ghost Rolls-Royce is brought to life by the skills of dedicated craftsmen and women. Natural burrs and grains are selected for their complexity and interest: experts sheet to select only the best work of which these sections are very thin. Veneer of a tree is only used on any car. This not only ensures that the grain is in the interior, but every area of ​​the ages and colors in the same proportion. Parts are machined and sanded by hand before being coated with five coats of lacquer for protection and a mirror shine.
