Rolls-Royce has introduced the third iteration of its exclusive Droptail series, named the Arcadia Droptail, at a private event in Singapore. Following the Amethyst and La Rose Noire models showcased last year, the Arcadia is part of a limited production run of four vehicles, each priced at approximately Rs 209 crore.
Design Inspired by Iconic Regions
The Arcadia Droptail draws inspiration from the architectural marvels and cultural aesthetics of regions beloved by its commissioner, including Indonesia, Singapore, and Vietnam. Its striking white paint incorporates aluminum and glass particles, adding a captivating allure upon closer inspection. Notably, unlike its counterparts, the Arcadia features a silver-painted lower section of the carbon fiber tub.
Exquisite Interior Craftsmanship
Inside the Arcadia, meticulous attention to detail is evident in the wood paneling, which pays homage to the commissioner’s favorite residences and vintage automobiles. The selection of Santos Straight Grain rosewood, renowned for its rich texture and tight grains, posed significant engineering challenges due to its susceptibility to tearing and cracking. Rolls-Royce developed a bespoke lacquer to safeguard the wood against tropical climates, a process that consumed over 8000 hours of development.
Innovative Dashboard Design
The dashboard showcases Rolls-Royce’s intricate craftsmanship, featuring a clock of their own design, hailed as the most complex part ever developed by the marque. This masterpiece required two years of research and five months of assembly to achieve its unparalleled elegance and functionality.
Powerful Performance
Under the hood, the Arcadia Droptail houses the familiar twin-turbocharged 6.75-liter V12 engine, meticulously tuned to deliver an additional 30hp, boasting a total output of 601hp and 841Nm of torque.
Personalized Luxury Beyond Compare
With its bespoke craftsmanship and exclusive features, the Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail exemplifies the epitome of personalized luxury, tailored to the discerning tastes of its esteemed commissioner.
