I was literally thinking the same thing hahaha but on second thought you can't take a $500,000 car just anywhere to wash it especially if it's (im assuming) a press car. The risk of scratching or damaging a press car from trying to wash it is probably not worth the headache. That's my guess

A German reviewer mentioned that Rolls Royce said that "People who buy these sort of cars, use the plane for everything further than 300km." That is why they never tried to extend the range.😂

Marques called the S-Class a luxury car but that's premium with a luxury loom and feel. Rolls Royce and Bentley are true luxury brands because they put importance on real materials and as much handcrafted or finely crafted parts as possible. Marques talked about how smooth the air vents moved but brushed over what he demonstrated that they actually were metal. On an S-class, 7-series etc they might be plastic with a metal look. I think Rolls Royce at least will resist pure touchscreen controls because the customers want the tactility, tradition and as a brand they don't need to cut costs by reducing physical controls.

The Mercedes is the best value Luxury car you can buy, anything over that and it’s just about status, and money no object. The Bentley cost £1300 for a standard oil service.

@bossman4401 I wonder if that's down to the Bentayga being the sister car to the Toureg, Cayenne, Q8, Q7 and Urus and one of the last on that platform. I feel BMW let's Rolls Royce be as bespoke as possible and more exclusive as well as the pinnacle whereas Bentley is apparently below or was below Bugatti and then maybe shares more from the VAG parts bin.

I wish you could get a car with the quiet cab and cloud suspension but cheap out on the rest, basic fabric seats and none of the chrome... I'm poor but would love a quiet soft car, lol. Absolutely in love with the purple tho

Can't speak on suspension, but some speaker shops will add that sound foam to the doors for an extra charge. Actually made a significant difference when I did it and it wasn't that expensive.

8:09 Why don't more electric cars design their dashboards like this? There are plenty of us who prefer the analog look, as opposed to a cluster(fxxx) of numbers, graphs, and illustrations of lane assist!

We need a "Soft" counter in this video 😂

Love Marques' reviews - his voice is so calming in this crazy world. But I am kind of shocked that there are almost a million views of an electric Rolls Royce review in just 3 days.

Nice review, I finally decided to trade my Skoda Citigo for this RR

Nice review, but I really would have given this car a wash before filming. Would have loved to appreciate its beautiful paint job in full glory

You should also have a look at the BYD seal, apparently its faster than a Tesla Model 3...

Yea, but its only for the beginning the BYD Seal accelerates faster. Then, after a bit less than a quarter mile, the Tesla Model 3 starts to accelerate faster and overtake the BYD Seal.

I feel like Rolls Royce should have made an electric car a long time ago

I love the power reserve thing, actually makes a lot of sense due how battery can only sustain so much. On the other hand tho, Tesla is able to mask that pretty well as not a lot of ppl floor them continuosly… so maybe it's unnecessary anxiety? From Autobahn with love :D

BMW now own RR, but each car is still hand-crafted in Goodwood, England. A few parts are German but the craftsmanship is English and still of the highest quality. Wonderful car.

Awesome video Mr. Brownlee, where's the link in the description of the video where I can click on and buy one of these?!?

When I was kid growing up, my dream car was a Ferrari, but honestly after becoming an adult I'm absolutely mesmerised by Rolls Royce. I highly doubt I'd ever be able sit in one, let alone afford one, but the Rolls Royce Phantom is my dream car. I really like what they've done with the Phantom, and I do wonder if there's an EV version of it coming out before the end of this decade.

Petition to bring back Marques putting what phone he used to film on in the description (unless it’s under embargo)

Having been out in one of these, they are absolutely beautiful and so so comfortable. It accelerates like nothing I've ever been in before, the drive is so smooth, and it really doesn't feel like you're moving at all. It's an incredibly machine, although a bit difficult to get out of the back if you're short!

i love how soft it is

You should try Apple Vision Pro in this :D This thing sounds close to a plane :D

I was honestly surprised they didn't go electric sooner. A RR is the perfect candidate for an EV. Their gas cars are already super quiet. I'm also shocked they decided to do a couple first. A 4 door phantom like sedan with a trunk and frunk would be sick. Either way, I love this car. It's gorgeous. Very much out of my price range but salute to the lucky person who can afford this.

If I were to do one push up for every time Marques said soft in this video, I'd turn into Arnold Schwarzenegger 😂😂

.....I had narrowed my new car choice down to two vehicles, this being one of them. Due to EV range anxiety I decided to go with my other option, expecting delivery of my Honda CR-V early next month.

Connolly leather and Wilton carpets? Funny to see those HVAC-controls, they've been the same for ages.

I like that the interior is tactile and not all touch screen like a Tesla or something

I am quite astonished that a car like the electric Rolls-Royce Spectre, costing half a million dollars, doesn't plug itself into the socket. That's unbelievable.

The camera feature 20sec before and aft is actually a BMW feature. It really shows that there is a lot of BMW beneath the surface.
