Rolls-Royce has unveiled the Spectre Series II, an updated version of its first all-electric production model, featuring a larger battery, increased driving range and improved charging performance.
The update marks the first major technical revision for the electric luxury coupé since its launch in 2022.
Larger Battery Boosts Range
The Spectre Series II adopts new battery technology derived from the latest generation of BMW electric vehicles.
The model now features a 112.5 kWh battery pack using sixth-generation cylindrical battery cells, replacing the previous 101.7 kWh battery.
According to Rolls-Royce, the larger battery increases the vehicle’s driving range by up to 18%.
Depending on configuration, the Spectre Series II can now achieve a maximum WLTP range of up to 628 kilometres.
The company said the updated battery technology has also been applied to the Black Badge Spectre, although an official range figure for that version has not been disclosed.
Charging Performance Improved
Rolls-Royce stated that charging times have been reduced by up to 14% compared with the previous model.
However, the company did not release detailed charging specifications, including maximum DC charging power or charging times between specific state-of-charge levels.
The updated battery system shares its underlying technology with the recently revised BMW i7, which supports DC fast charging at up to 250 kW.
More Power for Standard and Black Badge Models
The standard Spectre Series II now delivers 442 kW of power and 1,015 Nm of torque.
For the Black Badge Spectre Series II, output increases to 500 kW when the vehicle’s “Infinity” mode is activated, while torque rises to 1,100 Nm in “Spirited” mode.
Rolls-Royce continues to describe the Black Badge version as the most powerful production vehicle in the company’s history.
Customer Data Influenced Development
The company said development of the updated model was informed by customer usage patterns gathered since the Spectre entered production.
According to Rolls-Royce, many owners drive the vehicle themselves rather than relying on chauffeurs and primarily recharge at home.
The manufacturer said average annual mileage among Spectre owners is approximately 6,500 kilometres, comparable to usage patterns seen in previous two-door Rolls-Royce models such as the Wraith, Dawn and Phantom Coupé.
Electric Strategy Evolves
The launch comes as Rolls-Royce adjusts its long-term electrification plans.
The company has moved away from its earlier objective of becoming an exclusively electric brand by 2030, indicating that it will continue offering V12-powered models alongside electric vehicles as long as customer demand remains.
The Spectre remains an important part of the company’s product portfolio despite a decline in deliveries during 2025.
Rolls-Royce reported deliveries of 1,002 Spectre units in 2025, down from 1,890 vehicles in 2024, although the model remained the brand’s second-best-selling vehicle globally.
Market Launch Details Pending
Rolls-Royce has not announced pricing or a specific market launch date for the Spectre Series II.
The company said the updated model will continue to serve as its flagship electric offering while incorporating the latest advancements in battery and drivetrain technology.
