When a debut of a new model is pending, automakers work in mysterious ways. After sharing four different teaser images of the upcoming Wraith coupe, including one thatclearly reveals the coupe's profile, Rolls-Royce published one last photo, which it says, "confirms that its new model Wraith will be a fastback". Imagine that…Giles Taylor, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Design Director, also had this to say about the British luxury firm's new performance model:
"The purposeful fastback profile is Wraith’s defining element," he said. "Inherent in the graceful line that sweeps from the top of the screen to the very rear edge is the promise of fast, yet effortless touring. Yet, perhaps my favourite aspect is the expressive gesture that comes from the side window graphic, gliding through Wraith’s glamorous coach door."
"It works with a strong sense of linear purpose from the shoulder line, which has the promise of potential like the athlete in the starting blocks. In contrast, the line that cuts through the shoulder line is a little more artful and adds that certain air of effortlessness to Wraith’s dynamic statement. In my view the most successful designs always come down to three or four lines."
We'll remind you the Ghost-based and V12-powered sports Rolls-Royce will make its grand premiere at next week's Geneva Motor Show.
