Ghost Black Badge is aimed at a younger, less dull audience who still has a reliable bank account. Compared with the traditional, Ghost Black Badge is more biased towards style and performance.

You might think that the Rolls-Royce Ghost black badge is as black as the bottom of the sea, with deep black paint. You can see the fish under the surface of the fender, the crater behind the car, and the Atlantis on the trunk lid. . But it doesn't have to be so. If you don't like all black, you can order the green black badge, the bright poisonous pop of the rainforest tree frog or the emerald green of the topiary garden, or any shade between or around the infinite color wheel, including the gray that burns out our sampled models. Wear Black Badge and let other Ghost owners know that you have a dark edge—and you have passed them. Rolls-Royce is to meet the needs of customers, it said that more than a quarter of customers want to own a rare, expensive car, even rarer and more expensive. In addition, they like to decorate in black.

To say that driving a Rolls Royce is different from driving any other car does not give in to marketing. Just like its name, Ghost hovered in the street, definitely quieter than an electric car, and the combustion of 12 cylinders barely whispered. This is a car suitable for people who don't want to be disturbed or disturbed by the outside world. However, this poses a problem for some potential buyers. Driving a Rolls Royce will not be ignored; this thing can't be rumbled—does it give off a little less dusty haunted house and a little more sexy hunting vampire feeling? The standard ghost intimidates by disdain to admit you. The ghost black badge exudes a positive threat. Of course, the threat is not cheap, and the Black Badge package is an increase of $43,850 from the 2022 Ghost starting price of $398,850. The car we drive will deduct US$492,250 from your account balance. But we are talking about a vehicle that offers a $17,000 umbrella option-we know that money is meaningless.

For the meaningless $44,000, Rolls-Royce added a threat to the standard Goos with dark chrome trim and unexpected carbon fiber. Blackouts and composite materials may seem old news to anyone in a tuner or custom scene, but on the Roller, which has a history of silver ladies, polished trim, and more leather and wood than the English Manor Library, this Modern materials represent a huge change in aesthetics. The smoked bright surface is the result of the chemical process in the chrome plating process, including the dark mirror gloss on the grille, the logo and the retractable ecstasy spirit cover decoration. Routh said the finish will not chip or peel off. The carbon fiber wheels and the composite bucket around the forged aluminum wheels can save some weight, but help in losing weight is as useful as rejecting the third pie at Thanksgiving—this car weighs 5,500 pounds. However, they look good, with colored pinstripes and an always upright center cap as the focus, in contrast to the pre-war appearance of Ghost.

Inside, the Black Badge car offers more carbon fiber, here is a custom weave of aluminum wire and carbon fiber wire. The shiny metal on the inside is smoked like chrome on the outside, although there seems to be some randomness in which parts are darkened and which parts-like the door sills in our prototype car-remain bright. Like paint, the choice of interior colors is limited only by imagination. We opened the reflective black door of a car and found the pumpkin orange interior. Based on the orange car line on the side and the matching leather-wrapped key, we should have expected this. If the Halloween-themed Ghost is too much for you, please choose something else-we cannot go through all the options in the configurator. Who knew that cows have so many colors? Everything inside the Ghost feels good: this is what you paid for, the cashmere rug was wasted on people wearing shoes and leather trim, even if you can barely see it, such as on the inside of the B-pillar, a luxurious seat belt Rest place for the fixator. There is some plastic in the cabin — the slender turn signal rod is disappointing — but most of the surfaces are very soft, smooth and shiny.

Rolls-Royce has abandoned the idea that all buyers have drivers, and the performance aspect of Black Badge aims to improve driving pleasure. Although the mechanics of the turbocharged 6.7-liter V-12 and the all-wheel drive chassis remain the same, the engine tuning now provides an increase of 28 horsepower to 591 horsepower and 37 pound-feet to 664. It is also estimated to return 14 miles per gallon, which is the last thing we have to say. We have determined that this is not a car that makes people like you. Under the polished and painted body, the air suspension is harder. Although the sport mode will be rude, the low mode on the gear lever can accelerate and tighten shifts, increase the steering force from one finger to two, and open the row. Air baffle, and adjust the air spring and active anti-roll bar, to sacrifice a little Ghost’s undisturbed floating, and to carry out more upright control in the corners. For a car that is so big and has only half the load, it is a black (badge) magic, although it is a rough journey for Ghost.

Although the amazing forward thrust and heavy stability make the Ghost exciting and relaxing on the highway at the same time-this is indeed a long-distance travel car-but it offers some challenges, suggesting that it can be driven as a car Driving in the past instead of the car in the past. Visibility is very poor. The front is full of A-pillars and too wide rearview mirrors, and the rear only has leather-wrapped B-pillars and a starry sky canopy. Braking and steering can be said to be soft and comfortable for passengers, but they require more attention from the driver. A truly outstanding camera saves parking from a nightmare, not only can warn of restricted carbon fiber wheels, but also can warn of obstacles that may prevent passengers from leaving gracefully through the rear hinged door. This is a fun to drive car, but still feels best from the back seat.

It’s hard to sympathize with car buyers with a $500,000 budget, but imagine that you have become known as a rebel, a gangster, proudly one step away from the mainstream, and now you are here, losing more money on the NFT than Your loss, trying to stay sharp amid the tedious effects of wealth. When you receive a massage under the stars in a car with a little silver lady on the hood, even the slightest counter-culture street credibility must be an attempt. But what if this lady is wearing black clothes? Isn't this a bit punk rock? Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge in 2022 aims to satisfy those customers who want to be pampered but are willing to pay more, just to ensure that they are still hardcore guarantees.
