Rolls-Royce unveiled bespoke Sweptail car worth $13 million

Rolls-Royce unveiled a bespoke two-seater at the Concorso d’Eleganza car show in Italy.

It’s called Sweptail inspired by the beautiful Coach-built, Rolls-Royces of the 1920s and 1930s. The client’s desire was for a Coach-built two seater coupé featuring a large panoramic glass roof.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars says “It is a Rolls-Royce designed and hand-tailored to fit a specific customer." And it costs about $13,000,000

This model is also built on the aluminum spaceframe architecture of the Phantom VII Coupe and is powered by the same 6.75-litre V12 engine.

Inside, the Sweptail features a clean and minimalist design. Rolls-Royce has kept controls to a minimum on the dashboard. The clock is embedded into the fascia, with the hour marks, the numbers and hands on the instrument dials, all machined from titanium.

The rear of the vehicle pays homage to the world of racing yachts that inspired the client, with its raked stern.
