England's premier luxury automobile brand has drawn back the veil on Dawn, which the company calls "the world's only true modern four-seater super-luxury drophead" and "the sexiest Rolls-Royce ever built."
Making the announcement from its Goodwood, England, home base, Rolls said the new convertible will be propelled by a 563-horsepower, 6.6-liter twin turbo V-12 engine, producing 575 pound-feet of torque, through an eight-speed transmission.
The vehicle is electronically limited to a top speed of 155 mph, and can accelerate from zero to 62 mph in 4.9 seconds.
The lower, sleeker Dawn is slightly wider, but considerably shorter, than the company's Ghost.
