Rolls-Royce

The founder of Rolls Royce is Charles Stewart Rolls (Charlie Rouse) and Frederick Henry Royce (Henry Royce), two people's origins, hobbies, personalities are completely different, but the persistence and yearning for the automobile business, so that they become an excellent partner. Rolls was killed in a plane crash on July 12, 1910, and Royce died on April 22, 1933.

The original Rolls-Royce had two major characteristics compared with its competitors: simple manufacturing process and extremely low noise when driving, and these two advantages soon became the classic Rolls-Royce. A truly legendary "Silver Ghost" was born in 1906, it first appeared at the Paris Motor Fair, its golden bell radiator is very striking, to this day this shape is still an irreplaceable Rolls-Royce design element. In addition to its distinctive appearance, the Silver Ghost has technology that was ahead of its time: forced lubrication; The seven-liter, six-cylinder engine produces 48 horsepower; The speed reached 110km/h, which was a world record at the time.

Rolls-Royce is unique in that it uses a lot of manual labor, which is bound to lead to high production costs in the United Kingdom where labor costs are quite high, which is also one of the reasons for Rolls-Royce's amazing price. To this day, Rolls-Royce's engines are made entirely by hand. What is even more amazing is that the grille of the Rolls-Royce front radiator is completely completed by skilled workers with their hands and eyes, without any measuring tools. A radiator takes a worker a whole day to make, and then another five hours to polish it.

Today, Rolls-Royce produces only a few thousand cars a year, and the success of the brand is due to the fact that it has always adhered to the traditional British art of car building: concise, permanent, and meticulous. So it's incredible that more than 60 percent of Rolls-Royces from 1906 are still in good shape today.

In addition to manufacturing cars, Rolls-Royce is also involved in the field of aircraft engine manufacturing, it is also the world's excellent engine manufacturers, the famous Boeing passenger aircraft is used by Rolls-Royce engines.

In 2003, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars was transferred to Bayerische Motoren Werke AG.

Rolls-Royce is a sign of the elegance of the automotive kingdom, no matter how old the Rolls-Royce style, how old the model, how high the cost, but there is still no challenger. In 1906, Rolls-Royce was officially established in the United Kingdom, and the Silver Ghost sedan launched the following year was soon hailed as "the best car in the world."

Rolls-Royce's new elongated Phantom has been designed and manufactured to meet customer requirements in the Asia Pacific region. The rear of the new Phantom will be more spacious, while maintaining the Phantom's classic design and first-class driving feel. In addition to the standard Phantom, the new model has a 250 mm extension behind the B-pillar, giving it more room to ride in the rear. The additional interior space perfectly reflects the characteristics of "customer customization".

The body of the new Phantom is so far the largest aluminum alloy space structure, to create a "personalized compartment" model to meet the needs and requirements of Rolls-Royce users, has been a hundred years of Rolls-Royce's glorious mission. The new elongated Phantom is entirely hand-built, designed, engineered and hand-built by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in the same way as the standard Phantom.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended Edition combines modern flair with classic timeless design elements, greatly improving drivetrain performance through the introduction of cutting-edge technology, enhancing the ease of handling and functional practicality of the product.

On the Phantom, the public can also see a high level of craftsmanship and quality materials. The interior of a Rolls-Royce, for example, uses 16 hides. One is naturally textured leather for the seats. The other is a woven "border" leather used as a door brace and central control panel. All 450 pieces of leather inside the car are cut with laser guidance to ensure accuracy.

There are no fewer than six kinds of laminated wood products: gorgeous mahogany from West Africa, Burr walnut, maple and black liriodendri from North America; Oak burls and elm from Europe. Although the color and mood vary greatly with the different wood used, the quality of the work is still curving.

Rolls-Royce is a masterpiece of durability and sensibility. The leather smelled faintly of cattle, the carpet felt like wool, the hardwood handrails beside the Windows looked like they were carved out, and the art-deco mirrors had a dreamlike feel, except for a few ordinary plastic pieces in the cab position. The analog clock is also not high-end enough, and the ticking of the clock is not heard, fortunately. If you use a key to clear the clock display, it will appear on the back of the operating system color simulator. The color simulator is similar to the rotary adjustment button attached to the BMW 7 Series and is easy to load and unload on the dashboard of this class of cars. This is a minor drawback in terms of clock comparison.

At the heart of the Rolls-Royce is a special powerdrive system, a naturally aspirated 60-degree v12 engine designed specifically for Rolls-Royce, coupled with the zf's 6-speed automatic transmission.

The torque output curve of a Rolls-Royce is almost always flat. At 1,000 RPM, it has produced an impressive 500 Newton-meters, which is already 75% of its peak torque (the engine can reach its peak 720 Newton-meters at 3,500 RPM). It only takes 5.9 seconds to accelerate the 2.5-ton body from a standstill to 100 km/h, and the top speed can reach 240 km/h. The entire engine, hand-built by technical experts in Munich, delivers powerful power at very low revs and is quite quiet and smooth, making it a classic in the industry.

The huge torque reserve means that every time the driver steps on the accelerator, the car increases speed smoothly and without hesitation. At 5,350 RPM, the engine's output was rated at 453 HP (338 kW, 453 HP, sae). Other technologically advanced features of this engine include variable valve timing and cutting-edge variable valve lifting technology. The latter is an extremely efficient system that uses the intake valve to regulate the amount of air entering the cylinder, thereby overcoming the inherent defects of the throttle butterfly valve. The throttle butterfly valve has been an integral part of the internal combustion engine from the beginning. Results Fuel consumption and immediate valve response at low and constant speed were improved. No matter how high the speed of the engine is running, it can output power smoothly.
