2023 Rolls Royce Phantom Series II Gets Subtle Trim, fresh Features

The king is back for 2023 with lots of updates. The Phantom Series II arrives with new exterior features like an illuminated grill and stunning new LED headlights with laser-cut starlight bezels. Outside also are new optional disc wheels in either polished stainless steel with a black lacquer along with other new wheel options.

Inside also gains some new features such as a new optional fabric upholstery using an Italian mill or even bamboo fibres. There also is a thicker steering wheel. Rolls also are showing off just some of the endless customization options customers car option for in these images from different art pieces in the “gallery,” to different interior colour and material choices and more.

Based on the images that have been released, the new car’s physiognomy is very similar to that of the outgoing version, but there are some subtle differences. The revised Phantom’s front end now gets a horizontal line above the strakes of its Parthenon-inspired grille, this is intended to give “a new and assertive modernity, reflecting [the car’s] driver-focused character.” The grille itself is now illuminated, the headlights have star-light detailing, and the winged Spirit of Ecstasy mascot is slightly more prominent.

Rolls-Royce has also responded to customer demand for darkened finishes, with the ability to specify a blackened trim for the grille bezel, windshield surround and side glass finishers. The result is hardly murdered out, but it is certainly less chintzy than the more traditional chrome accessories. It will also be possible to order two new wheels, one having a milled stainless steel finish, the other a disc wheel inspired by the company’s 1920s era.
