2025 Rolls-Royce Ghost Gets Series II Sequel

Rolls-Royce’s clientele, it seems, are never quite content with the standard.

When the brand asked its customers what they wanted out of the latest Ghost, the answer was pretty straight: more options for personalization. And Rolls delivered, with what it’s calling the Ghost Series II.

The front gets a nip and tuck with new, slimmer headlights and simplified detailing to keep the focus on that imposing Pantheon grille. In the back, Spectre-inspired taillights give it a slightly fresher look, and there are a couple of new 22-inch wheel designs.

Beneath the hood sits the familiar twin-turbo 6.75-liter V12 engine, still producing 563 horsepower and a hefty 627 lb-ft of torque. There’s no talk of any mechanical changes. As for the paint, the featured color—Mustique Blue—joins a catalog that already boasts over 44,000 options.

The driving experience remains as smooth as expected, thanks to the Planar Suspension System, all-wheel steering, and a range of tech meant to anticipate road conditions. That includes features like Satellite Aided Transmission, which uses GPS data to decide the right gear in advance, making sure the ride is as uninterrupted as possible.

Inside, the updates are mostly in line with what we’ve seen in the Cullinan SUV. The Ghost now comes with the brand’s latest Spirit infotainment system and digital displays. There’s a new backlit Spirit of Ecstasy figurine that sits beneath the clock. The dashboard has an Illuminated Fascia designed to mimic a “celestial time-lapse photograph."

Rear seat passengers also benefit from a few new toys, like the ability to connect two streaming devices at once or hook up Bluetooth headphones to the rear screens. The 18-speaker sound system gets a boost too, courtesy of a 1,400-watt amplifier, and new materials like Grey Stained Ash and a rayon-based fabric made from bamboo fibers are available for those who want to venture beyond traditional wood and leather.

The Black Badge version also gets the Series II treatment. Billed as the “edgier” Ghost, it gains 29 horsepower and 37 lb-ft of torque, along with the obligatory aesthetic changes: blacked-out chrome trim, a tweaked lower grille, and black 22-inch forged wheels. The interior is fitted with dark, dramatic materials, and a healthy dose of carbon fiber.
