Official: 709hp Rolls-Royce Ghost by Spofec

The Novitec Group has just announced its brand new tuning brand dubbed Spofec to sit alongside Novitec Rosso, Novitec Torado and Novitec Tridente. Spofec will be dedicated to upgraded Rolls-Royce cars and to celebrate the launch, the firm has just unveiled its customised Rolls-Royce Ghost.

Spofec has thoroughly upgraded the body of the Rolls-Royce Ghost and consequently fitted it with new bumpers and panels which not only add an entirely new in-your-face visual element to the luxury car but also serve an aerodynamic purpose. Accordingly, a new front bumper is fitted with it seeing new air intakes and added aggression.

Furthermore, Spofec has fitted redesigned rocker panels and a new rear bumper alongside a subtle rear bootlid lip spoiler. New wheels are also available. The 22-inch wheels can be finished in silver, matte black, gloss black or a titanium finish and are mounted with tyres measuring 265/35 ZR22 and 295/30 ZR22 at the tail end. The tyres are from Pirelli although it is unclear just which model they are.

The suspension system of the Rolls-Royce Ghost has also been updated through the fitment of a special Spofec suspension module. It lowers the ride height of the car by about 40 mm at speeds below 140 km/h while at higher speeds, the car automatically returns to its standard ride height.

An upgraded brake system has also been fitted. New carbon ceramic brake discs measuring 405 x 30 mm at the front and 395 x 38 mm at the back have been installed. Alone, these new brakes shed 38 kilograms from the overall weight of the Ghost.

On an engine standpoint, two upgrades are offered. The first N-Tronic performance kit sees power from the 6.6-litre twin-turbocharged V12 engine rise to 686 hp at 5400 rpm from 601 hp and torque reaching 958 Nm from 780 Nm. The optional N-Tronic V-Spec engine kit adds even more power boosting the car up to 709 hp and 978 Nm of torque. Consequently, 100 km/h is reached in a mere 4.4 seconds.
