Rolls-Royce’s Spirit of Ecstasy mascot has been at the forefront of all its vehicles for over a century now and even that has been repeatedly refined over the years. Created by artist Charles Sykes, the original project involved a woman draped in a large coat and swung forward and arms pushed back, which appeared to be wings. Now, the luxury marque has unveiled a facelift of the statue, exactly 111 years after it first registered the original design as its intellectual property, and on its first electric car, the Rolls-Royce Specter Electric Coupe.

Anders Warming, Design Director of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said, “The spirit of ecstasy has become an official part of Rolls-Royce from 111 years ago today. For the Specter and beyond, it becomes less and more focused; unprecedented speed and Ready for an exciting future will define his presence.”
The new Spirit of Ecstasy is 82.73 mm longer than its predecessor’s 100.01 mm.
Rolls-Royce has re-imagined its iconic spirit of ecstasy figure to adorn the bonnet of its new all-electric motor car, the Specter. The statue has been remodeled with a lower, more dynamic stance that brings it much closer to the paintings created by its original creator. It also sees that his physical form represents the marque’s new visual language. The new Spirit of Ecstasy is 82.73 mm longer than its predecessor’s 100.01 mm. Her clothes, which flow in the slippery behind her – often but erroneously depicted as ‘feathers’ – have been reshaped to make them more aerodynamic and realistic.

But, the most visible change is her stance, as before, she stood with her legs together, legs straight and bent at the waist. Now, she hangs for the air, one leg forward, body bent down, her eyes focused forward. These changes have both practical and stylistic benefits, contributing to the Specter’s aerodynamic qualities. The early Specter prototype had a drag coefficient (Cd) of just 0.26, making it the most aerodynamic Rolls-Royce ever built, and the new figure is expected to improve upon.

While all the statues are made using one of the oldest known casting techniques, namely ‘lost wax casting’ or ‘seir-purdue’, each is individually hand-crafted, so it is closely related to each other. will be subtly different. Although relatively rare in the modern era, Bliss’s soul changes have been made throughout her lifetime and presented in a variety of sizes and materials, and briefly, in a kneeling position. The new version built for the Specter will appear on all future models, while the current design will still be used on the Phantom, Ghost, Wraith, Dawn and Cullinan and their black badge Altera Egos.
