Introduction
As the leading luxury brand in the world, Rolls-Royce has a unique understanding of the various facets of luxury, offering tailored experiences to influential clients. Throughout history, powerful figures and historical makers have negotiated significant agreements in the privacy afforded to them by the rear compartment of Rolls-Royce vehicles.
Announcement of the Privacy Suite
In this spirit, Rolls-Royce recently announced the introduction of the “Privacy Suite” for the extended wheelbase Phantom during the Chengdu Auto Show in 2018, a groundbreaking innovation that provides unmatched levels of privacy and luxury.
Phantom: A Symbol of Luxury
For the past 90 years, the Phantom has been recognized as the pinnacle of luxury automobiles. Its story intertwines with some of the most influential figures in the world, men and women who demand “luxury privacy” wherever they go.
Technology and Luxury
Understanding this demand deeply, Rolls-Royce has achieved the Privacy Suite, which balances functionality and luxury without compromising the space and comfort of rear passengers.
Features of the Privacy Suite
Rolls-Royce has once again demonstrated the relationship between luxury and technology through the use of electrochromic glass, allowing for a visual separation between the front and rear compartments at the push of a button. Rear passengers can choose between:
- Viewing the road ahead through the glass
- Making it opaque for the highest levels of privacy
Sound Insulation
The Privacy Suite represents a significant leap in sound absorption quality in a car known for being the quietest in the world. A specific frequency compound prevents conversations in the rear compartment from being transmitted to the front, yet communication is possible when needed through the fully integrated intercom system.
Intercom System
The intercom system, controlled by the rear passenger, allows for a direct line to the driver at the push of a button, while the driver can “call” the rear passengers, who can choose to answer or decline the call.
Document Exchange
Additionally, a large opening, controlled solely by the rear passenger, enables easy document or item exchange between the front and rear compartments. When opened, it illuminates softly, allowing passengers to verify the nature of documents and items before receiving them.
Entertainment System
The Privacy Suite is also equipped with a bespoke entertainment system designed within the Bespoke program, featuring two 12-inch high-definition screens connected to a fully integrated software suite, along with an HDMI port for secure synchronization of personal devices.
This meticulous execution of craftsmanship and technology is controlled from the central console, complemented by a fiber optic starry sky headliner and a custom-designed clock, ensuring passengers enjoy an unparalleled atmosphere.
Privacy Curtains
Rear privacy curtains have also been added, allowing for complete closure of side and rear windows in addition to the rear privacy glass, further enhancing privacy even when the curtains are open.
