Car of the Year Awards 2022: Best high-end luxury car
A luxury car obviously needs sumptuous materials, ride comfort worthy of a magic carpet, and a super-smooth engine. But models targeting company car drivers also need to offer low CO2 emissions...
Rolls-Royce Ghost 6.75 V12
If you’re the sort of person who’s more likely to shop for a superyacht than at a supermarket, the Rolls-Royce Ghost is the car to have waiting for you at the quay.
True, you could no doubt afford its even bigger and pricier sister model, the Phantom, but the Ghost is actually better at gliding over lumps and bumps in the road surface. Meanwhile, the V12 engine is so refined and noise so well suppressed that cruising at speed is almost, well, ghostly.
You’ll get to experience all of this from an interior that’s hugely spacious in standard form, or truly monstrous if you go for the stretched EWB model. And even next to the opulent standards set by rivals such as the Bentley Mulsanne, the materials and the fit and finish in the Ghost feel like a step up.
In short, it’s an exquisite car – to ride in, to drive or simply to be in the presence of.
