The result was the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Built on a new state-of-the-art factory in Goodwood, this flagship Rolls-Royce secured its revival by combining the spirit of his ancestors celebrated with advanced technology and technology visionary.
Design
Creating a strong identity for the Rolls-Royce Phantom was important, says chief designer Ian Cameron: "Our priority was to create a car that was obviously a Rolls-Royce from any angle, even if the Spirit of Ecstasy and the grid could not be famous to be seen. "
To identify this core essence, the design team immersed themselves in the brand and its history. It highlighted the elements of classic style, a long bonnet, wide C-pillars and discrete windows, all of which were incorporated into the design of the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Its powerful, permanent and dynamic, rising profile also unmistakable Rolls-Royce.
However, advanced features like an aluminum frame and single motor gasoline direct injection pioneered leave no doubt that this is a car in the forefront of technology.
A feature of Rolls-Royce Phantom, and in particular how the most advanced technology combines with traditional crafts by hand to produce something extraordinary. Switches, power windows and audio system are beautifully crafted 'violin keys', while Chrome vents operated by "organ stop" traditional. In conjunction with the use of best leathers and wood veneers, it is this fusion high technology and craftsmanship that gives the interior its unique and luxurious feeling.
Engineering
The essence of Rolls-Royce Phantom is a sophisticated, lightweight aluminum space frame - a single platform and advanced specifically designed by the team of engineers from Rolls-Royce experience to provide a refined and implemented to drive.
Built from more than 200 three-dimensional box of aluminum profile extrusion blown Rolls-Royce Phantom is the rigidity of a
Formula 1 car. Entirely by hand, using about 120 meters of welding, the frame is finished as if it were a precision instrument: Each is controlled by laser to ensure accuracy in a fraction of a millimeter. The frame is placed on a platform of computer-guided machine - the largest car industry - at the critical points are machined with unprecedented accuracy.
Without the need to provide structural support, the panels of Rolls-Royce Phantom bodies are simply placed on the chassis.
Made of lightweight aluminum and composite materials, which adds a minimum weight of the car. Only the boot is made of steel, designed to facilitate 50/50 weight distribution so desirable for perfect handling.
Rolls-Royce Phantom is a lightweight and rigid provides the basis for the extraordinary dynamic capability. This is an excellent handling - enthusiastic drivers will appreciate the precision with which can be placed on the road - but not at the expense of travel that is as quiet and comfortable as you might expect, the Rolls-Royce. Space Frame also helps to eliminate noise, vibration and harshness, to promote the tremendous calmness and tranquility of the Rolls-Royce Phantom interior.
The extraordinary integrity of the spatial structure of aluminum also offers significant advantages of security, which provide excellent occupant protection. But this is not the only area where safety is integrated into the design of Rolls-Royce Phantom. The location of the rear seat behind the pillar C, for example, is inherently safer than the traditional position next to the door and deny the need for rear side airbags. In a collision, so the effect is progressively absorbed by crumple zones designed to dissipate the force through the chassis and underbody. Of course, Rolls-Royce Phantom has been designed to pass all current safety laws.In addition, Rolls-Royce Phantom contains a number of safety systems using the latest technology and to guide the
Intelligent Safety and Information System (ISIS). ISIS takes readings from sensors located in different parts of the car, and the event of a collision, will make up to 4000 calculations, the second to establish its severity, and before the use of airbags, seatbelt pre-tensioners, or necessary . ISIS works in conjunction with other security systems installed by Rolls-Royce Phantom, including Dynamic Stability Control and Dynamic Traction Control.
