The BRABUS designers invested their decades of experience in the development of carbon bodywork components for the current Rolls-Royce Ghost. Their top priority always is a compelling combination of sporty styling and aerodynamic efficiency. The BRABUS components are produced from lightweight yet very strong carbon and impress with outstanding, precise fit and flawless surfaces. They come with a choice of glossy or matt finish, but can also be painted in vehicle or contrasting color.

 

 

The BRABUS front spoiler mounts to the production bumper. In concert with the carbon surrounds that sharpen the athletic profile of the two side air intakes, it gives the vehicle a sportier looking front. What is more: the spoiler minimizes front-axle lift at high speeds, further optimizing the handling stability as a result.

 

 

The BRABUS bodywork refit also adds striking highlights from the rear. The subtle lip spoiler gives the vehicle a sportier touch and also contributes to an optimal balance. The BRABUS carbon diffuser provides a sporty upgrade for the rear bumper of the Ghost and also precisely frames the four BRABUS carbon/titanium exhaust pipes, which can be combined either with the production exhaust or with the all-stainless sport exhaust system from the automotive refinement specialist. The integral system of actively controlled butterfly valves enables the driver to choose between a subtle “Coming Home” mode and the “Sport” position from inside the cockpit. The latter brings the full power of the twelve-cylinder engine also acoustically to the fore.

 

 

Thanks to its sophisticated design, the sport exhaust also contributes to the performance optimization and is thus also advisable for complementing the BRABUS PowerXtra RR68-700 performance upgrade. The BRABUS powerplant engineers developed new maps for injection and ignition conducting extensive tests on state-of-the-art test benches and test drives on the road. They also reprogrammed the electronic boost pressure control. The new plug-and-play engine control module is adapted to the electronic engine control unit of the Rolls-Royce Ghost. After the installation, the engine’s peak power increases by 95 kW / 129 hp (127 bhp), while peak torque grows by 100 Nm (74 lb-ft). BRABUS recommends high-performance lubricants from MOTUL.

 

 

With an output of 515 kW / 700 hp (690 bhp) at 6,300 rpm and a peak torque of 950 Nm (701 lb-ft) at a low 2,000 rpm, the enhanced luxury sedan sprints from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.6 seconds. The top speed remains limited to 250 km/h (155 mph).

To make the handling of the British luxury sedan more agile, the BRABUS chassis engineers developed tailor-made 21- and 22-inch wheels in four different designs. The vehicle pictured here is equipped with BRABUS Monoblock M "PLATINUM EDITION" forged rims sporting a ‘Shadow Chrome’ paint finish. This hi-tech wheel impresses with a combination of large disc design and ten smaller and larger openings each that brighten the looks. What is more: Their sophisticated shape also optimizes brake ventilation and cooling.

 

 

The rims of size 9Jx22 on the front axle and size 10.5Jx22 at the rear fill out the available space under the wheel arches of the Ghost perfectly. The matching high-performance tires of sizes 265/35 ZR 22 at the front and 305/30 ZR 22 on the rear axle are supplied by BRABUS technology partners Continental, Pirelli or YOKOHAMA.

 

 

The BRABUS lowering module for the standard air suspension of the Ghost is specifically calibrated to harmonize with this sporty wheel/tire combination. It lowers the ride height by about 30 millimeters (1.2 in) without impairing the ride quality.

 

 

The German automotive refinement company specializes in making even the most unusual requests of its customers come true. This also includes a particularly exclusive BRABUS MASTERPIECE interior, which the company upholstery shop precisely tailors to the wishes of the respective customer in every detail.

 

 

The vehicle presented here features especially soft and breathable, porcelain-colored leather with black piping to create a contrast to the black exterior paint finish. It is crafted with consummate workmanship in every nook and cranny. The square quilting of the leather on select sections of seats, door panels and armrests is applied with meticulous precision. That same leather covers the floor of the luxury liner and features the identical quilting throughout. The identical level of precision is found in the perforations of the exquisite material on the seat surfaces, which optimizes the integrated seat ventilation. The headliner is made from black Alcantara.

 

 

Polished stainless pedals, exposed-carbon scuff plates with BRABUS logo with red and white backlighting, and the carbon elements for instrument panel and center console add sporty touches.
