The Rolls-Royce Wraith is a 4 seat coupé made by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and based on the chassis of the Rolls-Royce Ghost. The vehicle was announced in January 2013[2] and unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.[3][4][5] It has a base price of £235,416 in the United Kingdom with current economy situations as of October of 2015.[6] Its chassis was designed by Pavle Trpinac.[7] Deliveries are expected from 4th quarter of 2013. All models include the ZF "8HP90" 8-speed automatic transmission.

The name Wraith comes from an old Scottish word meaning image of a Ghost or Spirit, a name it shares with the 1938 model by the original Rolls Royce company.
