British automaker Rolls-Royce has revealed the second model of its coachbuilt Boat Tail sedan. It has been showcased at Concorso d'Eleganza, Villa d'Este in Italy. As for the highlights, the ultra-premium vehicle is hand-built and draws styling cues from pearl shells both inside and out. It is expected to draw power from a 6.75-liter V12 engine that makes 563hp of power.

Rolls-Royce Boat Tail sports a Pantheon Grille made of aluminium billet, with a rose gold-colored 'Spirit of Ecstasy' on it. A cognac-colored bonnet that contains aluminium mica flakes, lower sills with rose gold woven thread, and a Royal Walnut-painted rear deck with a 'butterfly-design' hosting suite is also available. The exclusive paint blends oyster and soft rose finish with white and bronze mica flakes.

Like the first Rolls-Royce Boat Tail, the new model should run on a 6.75-liter V12 engine that makes 563hp/850Nm. The motor might be linked to a ZF-sourced, satellite-aided, 8-speed AMT gearbox.

The new Boat Tail has cognac and oyster-colored leather upholstery, Royal Walnut veneer, and rose gold and mother-of-pearl accents. There are also rose gold pinstripes on the transmission tunnel. It houses a timepiece made from mother-of-pearl, in the center of the dashboard. The prized substance has been chosen and supplied by the client and also graces the instrument dials as well as switches.

The pricing details of the 2022 Rolls-Royce Boat Tail luxury car have not been disclosed. However, a commissioned work like this costs a fortune. For reference, the first Boat Tail carried a reported price-tag of $28 million (around Rs. 217 crore) in the US.
