RANGE

Discover ways to locate and optimize Spectre’s range, ensuring a seamless journey
from start to finish.

Vehicle range is influenced by factors like weather, driving style, traffic conditions and vehicle options such as wheel size. The range is calculated using EPA figures, but these provide a standardized measure and real-life results may vary.

INTELLIGENT ROUTING

Before departing on a journey, make use of the in-car navigation to optimize your range. Simply input your destination and Spectre will display the range available on your current charge, along with the optimal route and charging stations.

PRECONDITIONING

Preconditioning Spectre supports the optimization of your battery range and performance. We recommend preconditioning the vehicle while it is plugged into a charging point. This will enable the battery and cabin to reach an optimal temperature before departing on your journey. 

STORING SPECTRE

 If Spectre is being left for a long duration, it is recommended to leave it with a lower state of charge, protecting battery health.

LOCATING
YOUR RANGE

Spectre’s range is displayed both in-car and within the Whispers app — a natural extension of Spectre, where vital car information is easily retrieved.

RANGE FAQS

What affects battery range?

Certain conditions, such as temperatures and increased driving speeds, will begin to decrease Spectre’s range. Cooler temperatures will have a greater effect on range than warmer temperatures.

How do I precondition Spectre?

There are two ways to precondition Spectre. You can either set a departure plan through SPIRIT — the in-car infotainment system — or via the Whispers app.

Does Spectre have a recuperation mode?

Yes. When activated, B Mode increases brake recuperation. Spectre will harvest energy via brake recuperation from the moment the accelerator is lifted. This allows you to control Spectre’s speed using just the accelerator pedal, which may be beneficial in stop-start traffic or while driving through a city. Please note, this mode should never be considered as a full replacement of the braking system.

HOME CHARGING

The Rolls-Royce Wallbox — installed prior to your Spectre delivery — ensures a private and effortless charging experience from the comfort of your home. The wallbox is capable of up to 9.6kW Market restrictions apply.

PUBLIC CHARGING

Spectre locates an ever-growing network of public DC and AC charging stations, enabling seamless charging both on the road and at destinations. DC chargers offer a quick charge during your journey, whereas AC chargers are typically used when you have more time to charge, such as overnight.

PAYMENT FOR PUBLIC CHARGING

Payment for public charging varies depending on the method. Most public charging points allow for tap and go payments, while others require an account. For peace of mind, easily filter charger and payment types within the Whispers app or Spectre itself.

ALWAYS PREPARED

There are a number of different charging cables available for Spectre, depending on
your individual circumstance. These provide you with everything needed for an
effortless charging experience.

OCCASIONAL USE CHARGING CABLE

When charging Spectre away from home, the occasional use charging cable enables flexible charging from everyday power sockets. A domestic socket will not provide the same power supply as a wallbox, therefore the cable is best reserved for when no fixed charging stations are readily accessible. Additional adaptors are also available, allowing you to charge from different electrical outputs.

USING PUBLIC CHARGERS

In places where AC public chargers do not have tethered cables, utilize the AC public charging cable found conveniently in the rear storage compartment. Rapid DC chargers will always have a thicker tethered cable.

CHARGING FAQS

Should I always charge Spectre to 100%?

We recommend charging Spectre to 80% for day to day usage. For longer trips, the car should be charged to 100%, allowing you to travel as far as possible on a single charge.

Is there a Rolls-Royce public charging network?

No. Spectre owners are not restricted to a specific charging provider. This ensures you have the freedom to charge at the most convenient locations within a growing network of public charging stations.

CHARGING TIMES

The charging time of Spectre varies depending on the power availability.
When charging using AC power, Spectre is capable of up to 22kW.
Overnight charging will provide the most effortless experience.

Spectre can also be charged for short periods to increase your range when you need
a boost but do not require a full charge. With just ten minutes of charging,
you can continue your journey.

CHARGING TIME FAQS

How long does it take to charge at DC charging stations?

When charging at DC charging stations, Spectre is capable of a maximum charging capacity of 195kW. In optimal conditions, it charges from 10-80% in 34 minutes. Market restrictions apply.

Will weather affect my charging time?

Charging in cold or hot weather may increase Spectre’s charging time. In such conditions, we recommend planning additional time to charge your car. You may also precondition Spectre by setting a one-off or weekly departure time, ensuring the cabin and battery are ready when you are.

How do I view the charging time?

Charging time can be viewed via the Whispers app or within Spectre itself.
