Second multi-million-dollar boat tail Rolls-Royce coming in May

For lovers of expensive super luxury brand, Rolls-Royce, the second Rolls-Royce Boat Tail, a multi-million-dollar modified creation, has been confirmed for the first half of this year,.

Although the automaker has given other details including cost, it is obviously expected to be over $28 million dollars, the amount paid for the first ever-built boat tail RR in 2021.

Last year, Rolls-Royce hosted a return to form by introducing the Boat Tail – a bespoke creation, hand-built by the company’s Coachbuilding Department. This is considered the most expensive new car ever made, commissioned for an unnamed wealthy client for $28 million.

Only three examples will ever be made and now, the British marque has announced the arrival of the second one.

According to Rolls-Royce, the second Boat Tail will make its public debut at the 2022 Villa d’Este.

The event on the banks of Lake Como in Italy is scheduled to take place from May 20-22, 2022.

Multiple sources including Automotive News say no detail disclosed about the second Boat Tail but it is expected to be different from the first one.

As the Boat Tail is bespoke, its bodywork and interior are designed and produced according to the exact specifications of the clients.

Despite being custom-made, the second Boat Tail should retain its 19 feet of length, along with the wrap-around windshield.

Automotive News reports that the extended rear end will be present in the second version, as well as the wood veneers on the “aft deck.”

The first Boat Tail comes with two-tone blue leather that covers the steering wheel and seats. There are wood veneers on the dashboard as well, which match the one found at the back.

It adds, “We’re expecting a similar exquisite execution on the second version, if not better.

 

Powertrain details weren’t announced, but it’s safe to say that it’s powered by the same twin-turbo 6.7-liter V12 as the rest of the RR range.

“This mill makes up to 563 horsepower (420 kilowatts) in the Cullinan and Phantom, while the Black Badge models have it churning out up to 600 hp (447 kW).”
