They call it the baby Rolls Royce but a single reading of the specs makes you certain that it is a quite a devil in the ranks. Rolls Royce has gone ahead and announced the official performance specifications for the much-awaited 2010 Ghost. It will feature a new 6.6-liter turbocharged V12 engine capable of rendering 563bhp and 780Nm of torque at a low 1500 rpm. The engine is mated to an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission which will give the devil a 0 to 60mph timing of 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 155mph. It is all about delivering ‘effortless composure and refined power delivery’.
The Ghost is inspired by Phantom when it comes to styling (of course in a smaller package) and it measures 5399mm in length, 3295mm in wheelbase, 1948mm in width, and 1550mm in height. The UK customers will get this treat at the end of this year for an expected £165,000. The North American Customers will get it in the second quarter of 2010 for US$245,000, while the rest of the world will pay US$250,000.
