Rolls-Royce Spectre Semaphore Commission: New Codes of Luxury for the Storied Marque

  • Rolls-Royce Spectre Semaphore reflects new codes of luxury among marque’s bold, youthful clients
  • Dramatic “Marbled Paint Spill” hood took 160 hours of development and pays tribute to the region’s influential artists
  • Bespoke Semaphore Yellow paint inspired by the informal elegance of coastal California
  • Semaphore debuts on Friday, August 16 at The Quail, 2024
  • Only one Spectre Semaphore to be built globally and is available exclusively through authorized Rolls-Royce Motor Cars dealer partners in the United States

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars unveils Spectre Semaphore, a Bespoke one-of-one commission, at a global debut at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, on August 16 during the 2024 Monterey Car Week in California. This highly Bespoke expression of Spectre, the first all-electric Rolls-Royce motor car, captures the bold new codes of luxury being established by the marque’s confident, youthful client base.

Exterior coachwork is finished in a Bespoke Semaphore Yellow – the color from which this commission takes its name. The solid hue is further elevated with unique artwork on the hood, inspired by the informal elegance of coastal California. Named “Marbled Paint Spill,” the graphic is as an abstract tribute to the “Golden State” and its diverse environment.

To create this motif, Rolls-Royce craftspeople applied silver lacquer and multiple layers of clearcoat for a seamless finish. The hood alone is the product of over 160 hours of design, development, and production.

The bright, yellow colorway extends into Semaphore’s interior. A combination of Bespoke Lemon Yellow and Citrine Yellow is used across the seats, Starlight doors and above the instrument panel. It blends into the contrasting Grace White and Slate Grey hues with Lemon Yellow stitching. The marque’s designers also leveraged the digital Bespoke potential offered by the SPIRIT operating system by complementing the dials to the motor car’s yellow colorway.

Spectre Semaphore maximizes the interior’s contemporary design with a clean, high-polish Bespoke painted wood set. Colored to match the grey material accents, the Cashmere Grey paint is infused with silver mica flakes, which creates a sparkle under direct light.
