Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail is a moving yacht

It is one of the most prestigious car brands in the world: Rolls-Royce. Nowadays, models have become an important part of the car collections of famous football players, rappers or other high earners. Now the British brand known for cars and jet engines is launching a new car: the Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail. This is not just any car, but the most expensive car ever.

The brand’s ‘standard’ designs are already very unique. But what most people don’t know is that Rolls-Royce also makes customized models for its elite customers. The manufacturer does this through its Bespoke Coachbuilding program.

Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail

A special project inspired by a superyacht. This can be seen on the car by the wooden details that have been added to the tail of the car. The name Arcadia stands for ”Heaven above Earth” in Greek mythology and we understand why this name was given to the car. As we’ve come to expect from Rolls-Royce, the car is completely handcrafted. The installation of 233 pieces of wood turned out to be a temporary job. 8,000 hours have already been spent on this alone, math experts now understand that it has already taken almost a year.

In terms of performance, the car is fast, but not lightning fast. The driving force behind the Arcadia Droptail is a 6.75-liter V12 engine that produces 600 hp. This allows you to reach 100 km / h in 5 seconds. This is not lightning speed, but that is also not the goal of this converter.
