Rolls-Royce Black Badge Wraith

Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge is a discontinued South African Coupe with historical specifications for used-car research.

Contemporary local coverage records the exact marketed identity Wraith Black Badge, while an official Rolls-Royce South Africa release confirms that Wraith's 465 kW output was retained and torque increased by 70 Nm to 870 Nm. Local launch reporting adds an eight-speed transmission calibration designed to hold gears longer, greater engine braking, steering and suspension revisions, larger front brake discs and automatic LED headlights. Price evidence needs care: one February 2017 South African report quoted about R7.45 million, another March 2017 source recorded POA, and a Rolls-Royce spokesperson again described the price as POA in June 2020. The car has two doors, four seats, a 470-litre boot and an 82-litre fuel tank. Gross vehicle weight is 2810 kg and the compatible same-definition payload is 370 kg. First-generation Wraith Black Badge, revealed in South Africa in early 2017 and supported by a 2018 local Provenance record; the March 2022 global Wraith order-book closure is an outer bound and production ended in 2023, while the exact South African withdrawal year remains unverified. It is mechanically and visually distinct from the regular 6.6T V12 and should not inherit the regular car's wheel, torque or consumption figures. The revised steering, transmission response and abundant torque can make urban driving feel more immediate than in the regular Wraith, but this is still an ultra-luxury grand tourer best driven with mechanical sympathy. The published 2440 kg curb weight, 2810 kg gross weight and 370 kg same-definition payload support cleaner comparison than the regular World Wraith sheet; the verified 149 mm normal ground clearance and approval-confirmed 0 kg towing capacity are also retained as exact values. A proper look at the Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge begins with the local specification, then moves to the owner’s week. Here, engine of 6.592-litre twin-turbo V12 sits beside a power output of 465 kW @ 5600 rpm, while a 8-speed automatic / 8HP95 transmission sets a practical boundary. Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge is discontinued in South Africa, so a used example should be judged by condition, service history, parts support and remaining cover rather than a new-car price promise

Where the Rolls-Royce Black Badge Wraith Fits Best

A practical view of the buyer and roads this model is best suited to.

Who buys this

Because Rolls-Royce cars were individually commissioned, a buyer must verify which of these finishes and assistance packages are present on the actual car rather than expecting every launch-car detail. Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge makes the most sense for an owner whose route and budget agree with a power output of 465 kW @ 5600 rpm

City
The 5285 mm body remains demanding in tight city spaces, while 21-inch tyres are vulnerable to potholes and expensive to replace. Drive the Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge through the tightest parking area, a steep ramp, a speed hump and stop-start traffic. A rear-wheel drive drivetrain matters when the cabin or load is full, and a rear-wheel drive drivetrain can change the cost of repeated short trips
Highway
Run Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge at legal cruising speed, include a hill and a safe overtake, and see whether the driver can remain relaxed after an hour. The interaction between a 8-speed automatic / 8HP95 transmission, a rear-wheel drive drivetrain and a rear-wheel drive drivetrain is more informative than maximum speed
Off-Road
Official material describes a high-gloss black Spirit of Ecstasy, inverted silver-on-black Double R badges, darkened chrome surfaces, aerospace-grade aluminium-threaded carbon-fibre fascia material and a black Starlight Headliner. For Black Badge Wraith Wraith Black Badge, the sensible check is the exact rwd arrangement, tyre specification, load and protection underneath
