Carbon Fiber Rolls-Royce Makes Purists Drool

Carbon Fiber Rolls-Royce

Bengala Automotive, a European design studio based in Madrid and Geneva, has teamed up with the US-based aftermarket specialists from Vitesse Audessus to design and develop a bespoke carbon fiber program for all current Rolls-Royce models.

Offering bespoke carbon fiber options for the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Phantom Coupé, Phantom Drophead Coupé, Wraith, Dawn, and Ghost, this incredible program will probably annoy and tease purists at the same time, with new parts made of a compressed carbon matrix, which is an industry premiere.

The aesthetic appeal of these new parts is just off the charts, and even though the casual observer may find this carbon program as a performance-oriented decision, this project is actually focused on the luxurious side of things.

Vitesse Audessus managed to develop something out of the ordinary with the compressed carbon matrix, and adding the Rolls-Royce badge to the idea is surely one way of putting out luxurious vibes. Yet another industry first are the forged carbon fibre wheels you see from these photos, which are apparently lighter and denser than titanium – they’re also fast to produce, durable, performance-oriented and super exclusive.

But there’s even more worth considering, since these aftermarket specialists will also offer every removable body panel in bare carbon, while components attached to the chassis may show off lightweight veneers, with the original features being stored safely in pristine condition. Is anyone else a bit overwhelmed by what they’re seeing?
