Prihodnji modeli BMW AG – Rolls-Royce do leta 2030

Ghost ima serijsko električno odpiranje in zapiranje vrat, štirikolesni pogon, zračno vzmetenje in štirikolesno krmiljenje.

Is the electric era a major threat or a fantastic opportunity for Rolls-Royce? BMW AG will be determined to ensure that it’s the latter and in many ways, the brand’s models having to evolve into EVs could save the parent much money. Gone will be today’s bespoke engines and architectures, along with the cost of engineering so many R-R components in Munich. Theoretically, there can soon be far more shared technology between the low-volume brand and BMWs.

Rolls-Royce naj bi dodal Električni Cullinan in 2025. Given how heavy all battery packs are and the basic vehicle’s enormous weight, BMW has a major engineering challenge on its hands to create a vehicle with decent range. However, the EV might not arrive until the second generation Cullinan, which should be 2028.

The first Rolls-Royce to be designed expressly as an electric model is believed to be under development. It would logically share much with a large electric sedan which BMW is also planning, the tentatively named i7 (see link to PLDB at the bottom of this report for further details). As with other Rolls-Royce models, the ‘Tiha senca‘ will be put together at the company’s assembly facility in England, with a tentative start date of 2024 still to be confirmed. BMW Group’s Flex architecture should be the basis of this model.

Ali obstaja še en SUV on the way for the super-luxury marque? Expected to be between 4,800 and 5,000 mm long so therefore about half a metre shorter than the Cullinan, the body-in-white of this vehicle could in theory be manufactured at BMW’s Spartanburg plant in South Carolina, the basic platform being shared with the BMW X5 and X7. As with other Rolls-Rolls models, final assembly would take place at the Goodwood factory in England.

O Ghost is Rolls’ most recent new model, production having commenced in September 2020 and the platform being shared with the Phantom and Cullinan. There are both standard (RR21) and long wheelbase (RR22) sedans with RR21 (5,546 mm long and 1,978 mm wide) announced first but followed soon after by the 5,719 mm long Ghost Extended.

Standardne funkcije vključujejo električno odpiranje in zapiranje vrat, štirikolesni pogon, zračno vzmetenje in štirikolesno krmiljenje. Motor za oba avtomobila je enak 6,749 cc biturbo BMW V12 z navedeno močjo 420 kW (571 KM) in 850 Nm (627 lb ft), kot je značilen za Cullinana. Emisije CO2 WLTP (kombinirane) znašajo od 347 do 359 g/km, najvišja hitrost je omejena na 155 mph (250 km/h), pospešek od nič do 62 mph pa zahteva 4.8 sekunde.

Model standardne dolžine ima enako medosno razdaljo 3,295 mm kot Cullinan. Masa praznega vozila (DIN) je 2,490 kg ali 5,628 funtov (2,553 kg) teža praznega vozila v ZDA.

Ker ima Ghost toliko skupnega s Cullinanom, bo neizogibno na voljo različica Black Badge. Ta naj bi imel enakih 441 kW (600 KM) in 900 Nm (664 lb ft) moči kot pri SUV-ju. Podobno bi podrobnosti v videzu kroma nadomestile črne obrobe, druga sprememba pa bi bila sijajno rdeča zavorna sedla.

The Ghost’s life cycle is expected to last until 2030, which means a facelift in 2025.

BMW might also adapt the Ghost for battery power but that wouldn’t happen until at least 2024. As with other models, this one is already a very heavy and not especially aerodynamic car plus today’s cell technology isn’t ideal for any vehicle with these inherent hindrances, i.e. an electric Ghost would likely have a limited range.

O Wraith letos bo star osem let, a je Dawn konvertibilna izpeljanka je na voljo šele od leta 2016. Kljub temu je ameriški uvoznik pred kratkim dejal, da bo oba opustil ob koncu modelnega leta 2021. Avtomobile bodo še naprej izdelovali za večino drugih držav, vendar je izguba Severne Amerike velik udarec za njihov skupni obseg.

Novi Wraith (RR25) naj bi bil predstavljen leta 2023, leta 2026 pa bi mu moral slediti naslednik Dawn. Drugi od dvojice bi lahko bil tudi zadnji Rolls-Royce, ki bi bil predstavljen z motorjem z notranjim izgorevanjem.

This is the last of six features in a series which has looked at certain current and future models from BMW AG’s brands. The first report concerned BMW’s next generation cars. Temu je sledilo SUV in križanci, Potem i delitev, M GmbH in mini.

The next manufacturer to have its brands’ forthcoming models detailed will be Groupe Renault.
