Don't act like you haven't seen it coming, as we told you about it over a month ago, and now it is time to meet it, whether you like it or not. Thus, say hello to Mansory's first take on the Rolls-Royce Spectre.
The luxury electric grand tourer has felt the controversial tuner's wrath firsthand, as it features a flashy body kit, new wheel options, and a reupholstered interior. We are not the only ones who think it looks kitschy, are we?
Like most of their projects, this Rolls-Royce Spectre retains the OEM bumpers at the front and rear. However, these were fitted with multiple add-ons. Everything came from the tuner, from those surrounding the lower air intake and the chin spoiler with Mansory-branded side blades to the fresh diffuser at the back with its aggressive design and extra brake light in the middle.
Since Mansory probably looked at the car's back and end and thought it needed to look sportier, it also added a pair of spoilers above and below the windscreen. Rear pillar attachments are also visible in the images the tuner released, alongside the new side skirts, front fender trim, and other extras. The Spectre also has a new hood.

The aftermarket components were made of carbon fiber and baked in the company's in-house autoclaves. They feature a forged carbon look, slightly contrasting the Spectre's satin black exterior. An orange pinstripe can also be seen alongside other accents in this hue. The FD.15 wheels can be ordered in 23 or 24 inches in diameter, and they sport Mansory's fixed hub caps.
Rolls-Royce already offers lively upholstery options for the Spectre, yet Mansory does not care about it. As a result, they gave it lots of orange leather with a few black touches here and there. The steering wheel, seatbelts, headrests at the front and rear, treadplates, footrest, and other parts feature the tuner's logo, and we can also see a special plaque denoting its more special nature.
No power boost is on the menu, as we already suspected when Mansory first teased the tuned Rolls-Royce Spectre last month. Thus, you are still looking at a combined 567 horsepower (575 ps/430 kW) produced by the model's dual electric motors, which churn out 664 pound-foot (900 Nm) of torque in total.
The electric GT weighs around 6,600 pounds (almost 3 tons) and can reach 60 mph (97 kph) in just four and a half seconds. On a full charge, it can travel 320 miles (515 km). Details surrounding the pricing of Mansory's upgrades haven't been announced. Thus, you will have to contact them to find out how much it will cost to turn your Rolls-Royce Spectre into a kitschy ride.
