Rolls-Royce Dawn

Rolls-Royce Dawn. 2015 to date (prod. n/a). 2-door convertible. F/R, 6592 cm³ (V12 DOHC). Technically a convertible version of the Rolls-Royce Wraith (2013–23) but Rolls-Royce noted that 80 per cent of its exterior panels were unique and the suspension set-up, active roll bars and tyres differed. Claimed to be the most torsionally rigid four-seat convertible on sale, and the quietest. Same engine as Wraith, which meant a twin-turbo V12 developing 632 PS. Named after Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn (1949–55).

Manufacturing location: Goodwood, West Sussex, England

Marque: Rolls-Royce
