ROLLS ROYCE VESPYRE

AUTOMOTIVE concept

Pronounced ‘Vespeer’ evoking a powerful, restless, and refined spirit. 

A two-seat sporting car, the Vespyre is conceived as a respite of modern luxury. Powered by a hybrid V8, its bold form declares solidity and presence. A sweeping flank gesture carries the side indicator and door handle to a distinctly tapered, very English rear. Beveled door and boot edges lend refinement, guiding the eye fluidly across the body.

The Vespyre’s character draws from the storied Silver Shadow lineage of the 1970s and ’80s—its radiused detailing and faceted surfacing recalling that era’s timeless balance—while subtle Art Deco references appear in its single-piece forged wheels with signature self-leveling centers. Together, these elements create a design that is both historic and forward-looking, a new modernity born of heritage and innovation.

The cabin is wrapped in hand-stitched leather, complemented by a continuous wood ribbon bordered with dual-layer bolstered detailing. A polished metal strip extends from the dash along this line, drawing attention to the elongated door handles—an intentional nod to the Spirit of Ecstasy. Command and infotainment screens stay hidden until needed, preserving visual clarity. Signature Rolls-Royce metal vents and switchgear root the interior in heritage, refined here with a clean, contemporary execution.

The Vespyre, in sum, is timeless, handsome, and uncompromising: a distilled statement of power, refinement, a unique expression that could only be Rolls Royce.
