Rolls Royce Black Badge Wraith Black Arrow Marks the End of an Era

The new limited-run Rolls-Royce brings to an end the era of a decade of the Wraith. Sending out the potent touring car in style is its final edition: the Black Badge Wraith Black Arrow. Sporting a crepuscular exterior, the special Wraith has Thunderbolt, the record-setting prewar Rolls, as its spiritual progenitor.

The stylish ride brings to an end the regular-production V12 in a coupe body style for the esteemed automaker, and as a result of this watershed moment on the road to Rolls electrification, only 12 examples of the Black Badge Wraith Black Arrow will be made.

One of the more striking examples of a low-production variant, the new Wraith is the first Rolls to sport the company’s new Gradient Paint. Inside the cabin, the special car features an especially vivid Starlight Headliner — it is embedded with over 2,000 pinpoints of light — as well as an illuminated aluminum Thunderbolt Speedform that acts as the variant’s ‘Gallery’ centerpiece (see the Phantom Tempus and Iridescent Opulence limited-editions).

Additional details of the Black Badge Wraith Black Arrow include the yellow exterior accents, the special fascia design, the Blackwood marquetry adorning the door panels, and ‘Club Leather’ upholstery.
