Unlike standard Rolls-Royce models, customers work directly with the brand to design elements of the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of it less like buying a car and more like commissioning a piece of automotive art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For context, Rolls-Royce\u2019s Coachbuild programme has previously produced models like the Boat Tail, which reportedly cost over \u20b9200 crore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design and Coachbuild Philosophy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nightingale EV follows Rolls-Royce\u2019s signature design language but with a more artistic and expressive approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll notice:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A <strong>low-slung convertible silhouette<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Smooth, flowing body panels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Minimalistic yet imposing front fascia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Signature Rolls-Royce grille adapted for EV architecture<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Because this is a coachbuilt car, <strong>no two units are expected to be identical<\/strong>.
