Quick Review: Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge in Vietnam – Limited Edition for Oil Magnates

The Rolls-Royce Wraith is a luxury grand tourer car produced by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, based on the chassis of the Rolls-Royce Ghost. It shares the same name with the model that was introduced in 1938.

The Rolls-Royce Wraith is a two-door coupe style without pillars and suicide doors, where all side windows can be rolled down like on a convertible car. This body style was popular on American cars in the 1950s and 1960s and is known as a hardtop body style, which Rolls-Royce has not used since 1955. The introduction of the Wraith in 2013 marked a new milestone for the brand, and currently, it has been replaced by the Rolls-Royce Spectre electric car.

There are nearly 20 Rolls-Royce Wraith cars in Vietnam, out of which, the Black Badge edition is limited in numbers, and recently, a supercar repair specialist in Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City, shared that he has imported a Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge car to Vietnam. It is known that this car importer has revealed the arrival of the luxury coupe to the country since last year.

What’s Hot About the Newly Arrived Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge in Vietnam?

The Rolls-Royce Wraith has now been discontinued, and the appearance of another one, especially the Black Badge edition, in Vietnam in the early days of 2024 has brought joy to car enthusiasts. This could be the beginning of a year where private importers continuously bring interesting car models into the country.

Compared to the two previous Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge coupes that were spotted in Vietnam many years ago, the newly arrived car has some distinct features. Not only does it have a unique paint color and an eye-catching interior, but it also belongs to a limited edition and is specifically made for a certain market. Let’s find out more in the article below.

Exterior Design of the Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge Sportive

In October 2020, the British luxury car brand received a special order to create a distinctive limited edition for Middle Eastern tycoons. Specifically, Rolls-Royce took center stage at the famous Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, introducing a high-end collection consisting of 2 Black Badge Dawn and 9 Black Badge Wraith cars. The brand brought harmony between luxury cars and the sporty atmosphere of the racetrack through bold color combinations that represent the essence of the Black Badge series.

All 11 cars will have unique and exclusive color combinations, meaning no two cars will be the same, even though the general exterior will feature 2-tone colors along with carbon fiber wheel rims with additional stripes. The carbon fiber panels will be combined with contrasting colors that match the exterior color palette. This is the first time such a combination has been achieved, especially for the distinctive Sportive edition.

The brand director of Rolls-Royce at Abu Dhabi Motors, Tarek Moataz, previously expressed his excitement about the announcement of the arrival of these unique and exclusive cars in Abu Dhabi. Overall, the presence of the Rolls-Royce Black Badge Sportive met the brand’s expectations.

However, these special collections are produced for specific customers who appreciate having a unique and luxurious product in their collection. For car enthusiasts, these are one-of-a-kind cars and among the most inspiring models ever introduced in the UAE. In terms of functionality, beauty, and luxury, the Sportive collection surely stands out even among the most powerful models in the same category.

As a result, a domestic tycoon has searched for and brought to Vietnam one of the 9 Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge Sportive cars. Although the domestic import company did not disclose any product information, the exterior and interior color combination, as well as the logo on the wheel arch, indicate that this is the unique Rolls-Royce Black Badge Sportive car that was previously listed by the Rolls-Royce dealership in Abu Dhabi Motors last year.

In terms of the exterior, this dealership revealed that the Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge Sportive car has a black and gold color scheme. However, the actual photos show that the car has a matte bronze color when exposed to light, and black-brown when not. To create accents, the hood, roof, and luggage compartment lid are painted in gold color, following the gold plating style of Middle Eastern tycoons. Additionally, the wheel arch logo is also adorned with gold.

This is not to mention that this Rolls-Royce Wraith is a Black Badge edition, so it features many chrome or silver elements painted in black, such as the flying lady hood ornament, the grille, door surrounds, and various trims. The most significant feature is the 22-inch wheels made from aluminum alloy combined with carbon fiber, which are also high-value equipment of the Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge edition. With 44 carbon layers on the surface, the new lighter and stiffer wheels resemble those used in the aviation industry rather than for cars.

Interior

Similar to the exterior, the interior of the Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge Sportive coupe has a special emblem, appearing below the infinity logo, in the middle of the two rear seats. On the exterior, it is located above the coachline and the wheel arch.

Next is the luxurious interior with a sophisticated Austin Yellow color scheme, creating a strong contrast with the car’s exterior. Not to mention the many carbon fiber details, such as the entire central control panel, the trim on the dashboard, and various high-quality polished metal elements.
