Rolls-Royce Motor Cars will unveil its new Phantom Coupé at the 78th International Geneva Motor Show on Tuesday, 4 March 2008. Production of the new car will start at Goodwood in the summer of 2008.
The Coupé is the most driver-orientated model in the Phantom line. A number of subtle but significant modifications have been made that change its character. It is noticeably more dynamic, whilst still offering incredible levels of comfort.

An expanded Rolls-Royce showroom was officially opened today in Ukraine by Graeme Grieve, the Sales and Marketing Director of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. The occasion was marked by the unveiling of the new Phantom Drophead Coupé, the latest addition to the Rolls-Royce model range which was making its Ukrainian debut.
Dr Olexander Tymofyeyev, General Manager of the authorised dealer AWT Bavaria, said, “We have invested in new premises for the Rolls-Royce business so that we are fully prepared for further new models and continuous growth over the coming years. We have seen strong customer interest in the Phantom Drophead Coupé already and we look forward to the start of deliveries very soon.”
Graeme Grieve said, “The new facilities reflect the growing importance of the East European region to the continued development of Rolls-Royce. AWT Bavaria is now perfectly positioned to provide a true Rolls-Royce service for our clientele in Ukraine, building on their many years of experience in the luxury car segment.”
Rolls-Royce now has a three-model line-up, as the new Drophead Coupé joins the Phantom and Phantom Extended Wheelbase. The Phantom remains the best-selling super luxury car in the world, with sales in 2007 reaching new heights.
A coupé as an additional member of the Phantom family was recently confirmed for 2008. A new smaller Rolls-Royce model, priced slightly below the Phantom, will be launched around the turn of the decade.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars announced today that the manufacturing plant at Goodwood is working at full production to meet unprecedented customer demand. Additional shifts and extended working hours have been introduced and will continue throughout the remainder of the year. This level of demand is reflected in the quarterly sales figures, also announced today. By the end of September 2007 the company had retailed 22 per cent more cars compared to the same period last year with demand for all models increasing. Forward orders for the four-door models stretch well into 2008 and for the new Phantom Drophead Coupé, extend right through next year.
Sales growth is expected to continue with last week’s announcement that Rolls-Royce will build a series version of the two-door, four-seat experimental car, 101EX. The new coupé will be launched in 2008 and production is scheduled to begin in the summer.
