Here's The New Rolls-Royce Phantom Rendered 3 Different Ways
An all-new Rolls-Royce Phantom is now upon us. It’s powered by a 6.75-litre, 563bhp V12, sits on a new spaceframe platform, and is - as you’d expect - is stuffed with luxury goodies. Oh, and 130kg of sound-deadening materials.
However, what we’d like to do now is leave the cold, hard facts behind us for a moment, and feast our eyes on a few imaginary versions of the Phantom, courtesy of these renders from X-Tomi Design.
Firstly, we have a shooting brake/wagon creation. We’re not sure this one pans out so well - on the Phantom’s vast, box-like proportions, the extended roofline makes it look a little hearse-like.
Next up, we have Phantom ‘Drophead’ convertible. Unlike the shooting brake, this is a body style we did see the previous-generation Phantom sport: it arrived four years after the saloon.
The outgoing Phantom also had a coupe derivative, something created above for the new car. However, we’re unlikely to see any of these cars become reality, with Rolls-Royce previously hinting that the new Phantom would be a saloon only, leaving the Wraith and Dawn respectively as the only coupe and convertible cars in the line-up.
Is that a shame, or are you glad this highly unsubtle trio won’t ever become a production reality? Let us know in the comments…

They should render it into a boat! Oh wait…
Whoever can afford one of these must be Rolls-ing in cash…
Going for the top comment!
And its not Chinese
The Wagon looks awesome
That’ll be the heaviest station wagon on earth.
Thing*
There should be a poverty spec too
Even the base spec will probably have a starting price of “You can’t even dream about how much this costs”
Right here
and by that you mean “steelies and plastic”
Uber land yacht? Can’t wait to order me one of those when I’m too drunk to walk home.
I’m sad that the 2 door phantoms are axed, those were realistically the proper 2 door Rollers of the modern world. The Wraith and Dawn are just old 7 series Beemers with glitzy bodies on them.
I’ve honestly had a ride in a Ghost recently and I was not impressed at all.
Sir, would you rather take your family to a noble restaurant or would you prefer a trip down the quaint cliffs of Dover in a tasty convertible?
I want to be able to carry a lot of stuff like a sir, so wagon
What if we render it as a hatchback?
That would be the shooting brake version of the wagon
