Since its launch in 2009, Ghost has become the ultimate symbol of success for leading entrepreneurs across the globe and in Malaysia. It counts among its clientele, Captains of Industry, entrepreneurs and successful businesspeople who have contributed to the growth and dynamism of Malaysia’s economy.
Building on this success is Ghost Series II, with an updated range of innovative technological, design and engineering features that position it as the choice modern super luxury car for the executive on-the-go – an oasis of calm in a frenetic business world. One of the most revered names in automotive history due to its excellence in trials, durability and comfort, Ghost is again synonymous with a modern, lithe and dynamic Rolls-Royce that bears the hallmarks of the great cars before it: effortless performance, unparalleled refinement, exclusivity and confident design.
“Malaysian customers have embraced Ghost as the benchmark super-luxury saloon car, along with Phantom. Ghost Series II continues with an even higher level of bespoke exclusivity, quality and perfection that is quintessentially Rolls-Royce,” explained Sven Ritter, General Manager Sales, Asia Pacific, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. “New exclusive finishes, wheels and interior veneer options allow for greater scope of Bespoke personalisation to express our customers’ individuality.”
“Ghost has been very successful for us in Malaysia, and it is this reputation that has helped us win hearts and minds across the country, including East Malaysia,” said Dato’ Michael Ong, Managing Director for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Kuala Lumpur.

Ghost Series II – changes at a glance
Evolutionary design
Ghost Series II presents significant recent technological updates in an exterior package that represents
evolutionary changes to Ghost’s timeless aesthetic.
. A contemporary re-imagining of Ghost’s front face; re-engineered and re-designed LED headlights are
framed by day-time running lights
. Revised surface treatments including re-sculptured bumpers that present a wider, more dynamic
stance
. A new bonnet design featuring tapered ‘wake channel’ emanating from the Spirit of Ecstasy that hints
at Ghost Series II’s dynamism
. The waft line leans further forwards, giving further expression to Ghost’s dynamic driving experience.
. New paint and wheel options giving customers greater scope for Bespoke personalisation
Interior design
. Re-designed front seats include electronically adjustable thigh supports (up to 60mm) and depth
adjustment. Rear seats have been subtly re-angled to augment effortless communication with fellow
passengers
. The clock fascia and instrument dials are enhanced with the addition of matt chrome centres, three
dimensional chrome surrounds and polished metal chaplets that evoke premium watch design
. Full Grain Leather as standard, the same high-grade leather as used in Phantom but processed for an
additional four hours to accentuate the natural grain structure of the leather
. Option of extending natural grain leather to the A and C pillars
. The scope for Bespoke customisation is extended with the introduction of two new, exquisitely
crafted crossbanded veneers: Paldao and Walnut Burr Crossband
Technological and engineering enhancements
. Re-designed LED headlights incorporating the latest technologies. A whiter, brighter light augments
driver safety whilst electronic reflectors move in the direction of travel in response to steering-wheel
turns. New anti-glare technology deflects light when a car approaches in the other direction, giving
Ghost Series II drivers the benefit of full-beam headlights at all times
. In Ghost Series II, the Night Vision system has been extended to include animal as well as pedestrian
recognition
. Improved voice control system that recognises full sentences rather than two word commands
. Suspension enhancements include re-engineered front and rear struts, new steering gear and adjusted
dampers that increase the car’s cornering ability when the Dynamic Driving Package is specified
. New hydraulic rear axle bearings enhance ride quality and rear stability whilst reducing vibrations and
cabin intrusions, especially for cars equipped with 21” wheels, available for the first time on Ghost
Series II
. All Ghost Series II motor cars feature Satellite Aided Transmission as standard – a technology that
utilises GPS and mapping data to ensure the car is always in the correct gear when negotiating turns,
motorway exists and roundabouts
