Rolls-Royce Wraith teased again

A second Rolls-Royce Wraith teaser image shows off the Ghost coupe's sleek side profile

Rolls-Royce Wraith two-tone Ghost coupe

The second official teaser image of Rolls-Royce’s upcoming Wraith model has been released ahead of its unveiling at the 2013 Geneva motor show.

Adorning the Spirit of Ecstasy displayed in the first teaser picture, this side-profile image also leaves much to the imagination, but suggests a slender, low-slung roofline for the Ghost-based coupe, which was officially announced last week.

The Wraith adopts a sleeker silhouette than its Phantom equivalent, suggesting its sportier intentions. Rolls-Royce has confirmed that the two-door Wraith will be its most powerful car yet, and it is likely to use a tuned version of the Ghost’s 6.6-litre twin-turbocharged V12 which could reach close to 600bhp.

The front-mounted door handles displayed in the image confirm expectations that the Wraith will use rear-hinged doors, similar to the coupe and open-top Phantom models. Rumours of a standard two-tone paint scheme are also strengthened by this new picture.

More details of the Rolls-Royce Wraith will be released ahead of the Geneva motor show in March.
