The Rolls-Royce Specter is a bestseller – RACER spirit

Los electric cars They are not a natural option on the market, they are an imposed option and a mandatory purchase within a few years, although at first glance it is clear that few users want an electric one, at least ordinary users, or “random users” as many say in the market. social networks. The case of millionaires is very different, it seems that everyone wants to have an electric car, especially if it is the Roll-Royce Spectreand we are not just saying it, because it seems that the British model has caused such a sensation that everything has gotten a little out of hand.

The first hint of lack of control – so to speak – came from Rolls-Royce itself, when it issued a clear and concise warning: whoever buys a Specter and sells it ahead of time will never again be able to buy a new Rolls-Royce. He can buy it second-hand, at auctions or wherever he wants, but the brand will never sell him a new model again. A warning that could be a simple anecdote, but for those who buy one of these cars, and for collectors, it is not a joke at all.

On the other hand, the price of the Rolls-Royce Specter is another example of the madness that exists in the parallel world of billionaires. In the United States the price of the first electric car from the legendary Rolls-Royce starts at 420,000 euros, while in Europe it is around 400,000 euros, not counting the ideas, sometimes quite bizarre, that the buyers of these come up with. cars and that cause prices to skyrocket above half a million euros. You can buy a couple of houses with that money and you’ll probably have enough left over to get a good car.

Another example of the impact and excitement that the new Rolls-Royce Specter has made is in the United States. Michael Fux lives there, a Cuban by birth and a collector with more than 100 vehicles, among which 15 Rolls stand out, all of them signed by the brand. This man has been the buyer of the first unit of the Specter that sets foot in the Land of Opportunities. Curiously, he was also, or should have been, the owner of the first Hispano-Suiza Carmen Boulogne to be sold in the United States, but the car was never delivered.

But the most striking of all is the number of orders that have been received from Turkey: no less than 110 Specter will be destined for the Middle Eastern country. This was announced by Emre Özpeynirci, a specialized journalist of Turkish origin, on his social networks. In addition, he also stated that the first Rolls-Royce Specter that will arrive in Turkey will cost 26.6 million Turkish liras, about 847,000 euros. Interestingly, due to its status as an electric car, it has a special tax bracket in Turkey and happens to be the cheapest Rolls-Royce sold there…

Anyone who wants a Specter has to wait, on average, 15 months. None will arrive in Turkey until 2024, when 40 units will be delivered, but there will be many customers who will have to wait until 2026.

It is evident that the Specter is not just any Rolls-Royce, it is not even a common electric car, it is the most excellent, exclusive and expensive thing that can be bought with this technology. Its range of 520 kilometers will not be a problem, despite its 430 kW of power –585 HP– and its 900 Nm of torque. The owner of these cars rarely parks on the street and obviously has plenty of money to set up a charging point wherever he wants.
