Rolls-Royce Unveils Seven-Figure Project Nightingale Convertible EV Limited to 100 Units
Rolls-Royce unveiled Project Nightingale, a drop-head convertible EV priced in the seven figures with only 100 coach-built units to be produced. At 5.7 meters long and featuring two seats, the model builds on the success of the Spectre EV and will require factory expansion to meet bespoke production.
1. Launch of Project Nightingale
Rolls-Royce introduced Project Nightingale as its first coach-built drop-head convertible EV, featuring a bespoke design and a seven-figure price tag. The 5.7-meter-long, two-seat model delivers an extravagant road presence and highlights the marque’s shift toward electric propulsion in ultra-luxury vehicles.
2. Production Run and Client Journey
Only 100 examples of Project Nightingale will be produced, all of which have already been allocated to clients. Buyers began collaborating with Rolls-Royce two years ago on bespoke details, underscoring the brand’s emphasis on personalized coach-built collections and exclusive ownership experiences.
3. EV Strategy and Spectre Comparison
Rolls-Royce launched its first EV, Spectre, in 2023 and achieved delivery numbers on par with its previous Wraith coupe. Nightingale leverages the proven silent powertrain of Spectre to offer an open-top driving experience without mechanical noise, reinforcing the brand’s EV competence.
4. Factory Expansion Plans
The bespoke nature of Project Nightingale has prompted Rolls-Royce to plan factory extensions to accommodate coach-built electric models. Expanding production capacity will ensure the company can continue delivering highly customized, low-volume vehicles while meeting future electric luxury demand.
