The Rolls-Royce Ghost has entered a new generation with a host of updates to its exterior, interior, powertrain, and of course, its price tag. The luxury car now starts at a staggering 30 billion VND, a significant jump from the previous generation’s 19 billion VND, excluding additional options and on-road costs.
For Vietnam’s wealthy elite, this price tag is not an obstacle, as evidenced by the dozens of new Rolls-Royce Ghosts that have already been imported into the country, including a few of the rare Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II Black Badge models.

The Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II Black Badge is a rare sight in Vietnam, with only a handful of these models in the country. One such example belongs to a Hanoi-based businessman and features a stunning gunmetal grey exterior, a popular color choice for supercars, sports cars, and luxury vehicles in recent years.
Compared to the first Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge that arrived in Vietnam almost eight years ago, the new Ghost Series II Black Badge boasts a refreshed design. Additionally, the exterior of the new model features a striking finish, achieved using 45 kg of paint to create a shimmering effect in black and neon, true to the “extra black” theme of the Black Badge series.
The Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge also features unique black-painted details, including the iconic Spirit of Ecstasy logo and the Pantheon Grille, as well as carbon fiber composite wheels, adding to its distinct and bold character.
Under the hood, the Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge is equipped with a powerful V12 engine, now tuned to deliver an impressive 592 horsepower and 900 Nm of torque, representing a significant increase over the standard model’s 563 horsepower and 850 Nm of torque. The suspension system has also been upgraded, featuring larger-capacity shock absorbers for a smoother ride.
