A new two-seater electric convertible variant has been introduced by luxury automaker Rolls-Royce. Only 100 of the Project Nightingale vehicles will be produced by the BMW-owned firm. They will be hand-built at the Rolls-Royce headquarters in Goodwood, West Sussex, and deliveries are expected to begin in 2028. According to the manufacturer, there would be “virtually no mechanical noise” because it is all electric.
Rolls-Royce announced last month that it will no longer sell entirely electric vehicles starting in 2030 and that it would also sell cars with gasoline engines after that year. According to Rolls-Royce, Project Nightingale will be 5.76 meters long, around the same as Phantom, the company’s premier saloon with four or five seats. It stated that it will have a tall bonnet to give it a “torpedo-shaped form,” taking cues from the Art Deco period and the company’s experimental automobiles from the 1920s, known as EX models. “Some of the most discriminating Rolls-Royce clients in the world asked us for our most ambitious work,” stated Chris Brownridge, CEO of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
“We responded by bringing three things together that have never co-existed in our brand: the complete design freedom of coachbuilding, our powerful, near-silent all-electric powertrain, and a uniquely potent yet serene expression of open-top motoring.” The “most extravagant expression of what Rolls-Royce is capable of today” is Project Nightingale, according to Brownbridge.
