The luxury car world has a new leading contender: the Rolls-Royce CoupéTail by Engler, created from the latest updated version of the Ghost. That is right - the four-door saloon.

Rolls-Royce CoupéTail by Engler: a Ghost transformed

This project is aimed at buyers who miss cars such as the discontinued Rolls-Royce Wraith, yet do not wish to choose the fully electric Spectre. To meet that demand, the Ghost body has been reshaped into a refined, elegant coupé, complete with its pair of rear-hinged doors.

Much of its detailing takes inspiration from the Spectre. The key distinction, however, lies beneath the bonnet of this Rolls-Royce CoupéTail: a twin-turbo V12 producing more than 750 hp and 100 Nm of torque.

Compared with the standard V12 fitted to the Rolls-Royce Ghost, the CoupéTail unit receives new turbochargers, a revised lubrication system and electronic management developed specifically for this model.

According to the figures stated by the manufacturer, the CoupéTail can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in under four seconds and reach a top speed of 300 km/h.

These figures place it ahead of the Rolls-Royce Spectre Black Badge in performance, while acoustic comfort is retained through additional sound insulation and suspension lowered by approximately 25 mm.

A Rolls-Royce for those unwilling to compromise

With a base price, excluding taxes, of €2.2 million (source: Carscoops), the Rolls-Royce CoupéTail by Engler is more than simply a car: it is a statement of individuality. Production will be restricted to just 19 examples, five of which will receive exclusive personalisation. Even the Spirit of Ecstasy figurine has been reinterpreted by a sculptor, giving it an even more distinctive and bespoke character.

Engler states that, despite the alterations, it has retained a substantial proportion of the original Rolls-Royce components, allowing the customer to keep the British marque’s original warranty. It therefore offers an alternative for those wanting a Rolls-Royce coupé but who do not identify with the quiet shift towards electric mobility. For them, the roar of the V12 remains irreplaceable.
