2022 Rolls-Royce Ghost
Starting at: $315,000 est

Highs Velvety-smooth ride, endless power from V-12 engine, high-class inside and out.
Lows King's ransom starting price, outward visibility is compromised by thick roof pillars, floppy-feeling brake pedal.
Verdict It might be the entry point to the Rolls-Royce brand, but the Ghost doesn't deliver an entry-level experience.

Overview
Rolls-Royce ownership makes a bold statement. It means that you're not only wealthy, but that you don't make compromises. The 2022 Ghost sedan lives up to that uncompromising luxury ethos and blends in a few surprises along the way. It shares its platform with the flagship Phantom sedan and the Cullinan SUV, which helps it provide a peerless ride quality that's on par with the best the brand has to offer. A smooth and whisper-quiet V-12 engine provides seemingly endless power, and the Ghost's cabin—decked out with only the finest leathers, fabrics, woods, and metals—serves as a palatial oasis from the rigors of affluence and celebrity.

What's New for 2022?

The Ghost welcomes a Black Badge variant for the 2022 model year, which sports darkened exterior trimmings, hand-polished and high-gloss paintwork, black wood interior trim, a slightly more powerful 592-hp version of the 6.7-liter V-12 engine, and more. The Black Badge is highly customizable, like all Rolls-Royce models, but its exclusivity means it commands a much higher starting price than the standard model.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
Ghost: $315,000 (est)
Ghost Black Badge: $400,000 (est)

Despite being the entry-level model, the Ghost will still be out of reach of most new-car buyers. The list of standard and optional equipment is extremely long, but Rolls-Royce offers a seemingly endless list of additional features and customizations, the only question is how much you're willing to spend.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance
The Ghost is powered by 563-hp 6.7-liter V-12 that is shared with the Cullinan SUV; Black Badge models get a boost in power to 592 hp. An eight-speed automatic handles shifting duties, and all-wheel drive is standard. According to Rolls-Royce, the Ghost is capable of hitting 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds, and we're looking forward to verifying that claim at our test track. Rolls-Royce also boasts that the new Ghost offers a sharper driving demeanor than the last model, pointing to the all-wheel-steering system and 50/50 weight distribution as evidence that driving satisfaction played a significant role in the car's development. The Ghost provides a peerless ride thanks to its standard adaptive suspension that employs a road-scanning camera to help the vehicle anticipate and compensate for potholes.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

The EPA estimates that the Ghost will return 12 mpg in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. Once we get a chance, we'll put the Ghost through our 75-mph highway fuel-economy test and update this story with results. For more information about the Ghost's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Like the cabin of any Rolls-Royce, the new Ghost is opulent inside, with every surface, knob, switch, and lever crafted from quality materials. Trying to stand out from competitors like the Bentley Flying Spur and the Mercedes-Benz S-class, Rolls-Royce has pulled out all the stops. Think thick carpet, finely grained leather, real wood and metal accents, and even an available headliner with tiny integrated LEDs to simulate a starlit sky. An illuminated dashboard inlay glows when the driver turns on the Ghost, adding to the starry-night ambiance. The best seat in the house is in the rear, where passengers are treated to such luxuries as massaging seats, an entertainment system, and acres of legroom.

Infotainment and Connectivity

Along with providing a Wi-Fi hotspot, the Ghost features a large infotainment touchscreen with in-dash navigation. Though not confirmed, we expect it also includes both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto interfaces. A dual-screen rear-seat entertainment system allows passengers to adjust the radio, input destinations into the nav, and more. Rolls-Royce also supplies an 18-speaker Bespoke stereo system with 1300 watts of power and magnesium-ceramic speaker cones.
