Key Takeaways
- Mansory’s extreme Spectre conversion includes visible carbon accents, massive vents, and 23-24 inch polished wheels.
- The interior of the Spectre is transformed with leather and carbon fiber, maintaining standard switchgear.
- Despite the bold design changes, the electric Spectre maintains a strong performance with 577 horsepower and 155-mph top speed.
A Rolls-Royce Spectre drenched in gaudy vents and carbon fiber was just a matter of time since companies like Mansory exist in the world, and its newest creation is just as over the top as one would expect. Despite the Spectre arriving with an air of subtlety thanks to its electric architecture, subtle isn’t in Mansory’s vocabulary. So if you want something to stand out at the electric charging station, this is the perfect conversion for you.

There are a few brands Mansory loves to get its mischievous hands on, and Rolls-Royce sits near the very top. Never one to shy away from a challenge, the company consistently finds new and innovative ways to screw with a vehicle’s original design. Sometimes it’s honestly not too bad, but often it is. If you love the bold and brash, this is the tuner for you, but sometimes we think the designs may just belong in the trash.
No Longer A Spectre
So what kind of stunts did Mansory pull to bring this Spectre into the light? A full body conversion was ordered, complete with a full carbon hood, individualized leather interior, and massive polished lightweight wheels.
The front features an integrated front lip with side flaps, all of which are made from visible carbon. The grille is blackened but can be illuminated in a color of your choosing at the push of a button. The hood is then a sea of carbon fiber that the Spirit of Ecstasy is barely able to keep its head up in. Down the side, you receive a massive pinstripe in the chosen accent color. It sits above some massive vents directly behind the rear wheels and the side skirts, both of which are also made of carbon fiber. Finally, the rear is finished with a carbon fiber spoiler, diffuser, and taillight surrounds.
The wheels are perhaps the best part of the design because they aren’t over-the-top (at least by Rolls-Royce standards). 23 or 24-inch versions of the forged and polished rims can be chosen, though the wheel center caps are unfortunately fixed, meaning you’ll have to deal with seeing your car’s logo upside down like the rest of the bourgeoisie.
To finish out the design changes, the interior is bathed in leather and carbon fiber. A mix of black and light orange is used for the color scheme, but all the switchgear is the same as a standard Spectre.
Still A Rolls-Royce Underneath
Whereas the company often gives its combustion creations a little more performance, we imagine the company didn’t want to take any chances with this behemoth of an EV. This means you still receive a 255 horsepower front motor and a 483 horsepower rear motor that combine for 577 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. These specs can get it to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds, not too shabby for a 6,300-lbs beast.

Leaked documents reveal a high-performance Rolls-Royce EV is in the works.
Range is an EPA-estimated 291 miles, which is alright given this is a model that will only ever be driven short distances by its owners. We would like to see more range given the Magic Ride suspension and ample power that make it the perfect GT vehicle, only really limited at this point by the battery pack. On a DC fast charger, you can recoup 10-80% in 34 minutes, with this taking about five hours at home. We look forward to the company unveiling a Black Badge model in the future because even if it’s down on range, it’ll have the power to make up for it.
