Black Badge Spectre arrived in Doha, making its debut through an effortless and commanding demonstration of power on the renowned Lusail International Circuit. The marque’s alter ego amplified boasts bold exteriors, vivid interiors, and limitless Bespoke potential made for the boldest and most audacious clients. With an unprecedented 1075 Nm torque and 485 kW (659 hp) power output, it stands as the most powerful Rolls-Royce ever.

Created for bold individuals who redefine luxury, Black Badge Spectre delivers effortless intensity, precision, and immediacy. Engineered to meet the extraordinary expectations of Black Badge clients, it reflects their demand for unparalleled craftsmanship and dynamic edge.

By analysing anonymised driving data across vast distances, Rolls-Royce identified a preference for short bursts of power over sustained acceleration – insight that shaped Spectre’s dramatic and intense performance. This validation underscores Black Badge Spectre’s role as the definitive expression of power, precision, and daring character.


HARNESSING FORMIDABLE POWER

Black Badge Spectre takes power to the extreme with two advanced powertrain innovations. Inspired by Rolls-Royce’s aviation legacy, these functions mirror the burst-power capabilities of the legendary Merlin engine.

Infinity Mode, activated via the ∞ button, unlocks the full 485 kW (659 hp) output for an immediate, heightened throttle response, with the dials intensifying to match the car’s dynamic shift.

Spirited Mode delivers an instant acceleration surge. Engaged while stationary, the driver fully depresses the brake and throttle, waits for a haptic and visual signal, then releases the brake to unleash 1075 Nm of torque—propelling the car from 0-60 mph in just 4.1 seconds.

This fusion of history and innovation cements Black Badge Spectre’s status as the most powerful and exhilarating Rolls-Royce ever created.


BLACK BADGE CHASSIS ENGINEERING

To ensure drivers fully harness Black Badge Spectre’s power, Rolls-Royce engineers refined the chassis for enhanced confidence and control. Increased steering weight and adjusted roll stabilisation improve feedback and reduce body-roll during cornering, while enhanced dampers optimise body control, minimizing ‘squatting’ under acceleration or deceleration. These revisions perfectly balance an enhanced sense of engagement with the effortless operation and fêted Magic Carpet Ride associated with Rolls-Royce motor cars.





A CLANDESTINE AGREEMENT

Long before its debut, clients anticipated Black Badge Spectre’s arrival, drawn to its bold reinterpretation. In response, Rolls-Royce granted a select group early access under the condition of secrecy, aligning with their rebellious spirit. A highly exclusive fleet was commissioned ahead of the reveal, and their overwhelmingly positive response validated the creation of the most powerful Rolls-Royce in history.


A DARKENED AESTHETIC  

Black Badge Spectre debuts in Vapour Violet, a deep black-violet inspired by 1980s and 1990s club culture. A contrasting Iced Black bonnet adds a bold statement, with clients able to choose from 44,000 colours or create a Bespoke hue in collaboration with Rolls-Royce designers.

A new ‘waft’ coachline option highlights the lower profile, enhancing its commanding presence. The 23-inch five-spoke forged aluminium wheels, available in part-polished or all-black finishes, reflect the car’s technical sophistication. Winter tyres are available from launch, accommodating Black Badge clients worldwide.

Signature darkened brightwork, including the Pantheon Grille, Spirit of Ecstasy, and double ‘R’ Badge of Honour, reinforces Black Badge Spectre’s subversive, noir identity.


VIVID ILLUMINATIONS

Advancing contemporary craft, Rolls-Royce enhances Black Badge Spectre’s Illuminated Grille with a new backplate in Tailored Purple, Charles Blue, Chartreuse, Forge Yellow, or Turchese. This allows clients to extend their chosen colour or add a unique accent to complement the coachline or interior.

This striking illumination continues inside with Illuminated Black Badge Treadplates, available in ten colours, offering a bold and dynamic personal touch.


A VIBRANT INNER SANCTUARY

Black Badge Spectre’s rebellious character is immediately evident upon entry. The Illuminated Fascia, featuring an abstract Spirit of Ecstasy pattern, now incorporates the Black Badge Infinity symbol—a mark of infinite power inspired by historic water-speed records.

The fascia, adorned with over 5,500 stars set in a Piano Black ‘sky,’ is framed by a Technical Fibre finish. This intricate diamond-weave surface, combining carbon and fine metal thread over black Bolivar wood, undergoes meticulous craftsmanship, including sandblasting, six layers of lacquer, and hand-polishing for striking depth.


The Infinity symbol is also stitched into the leather ‘Waterfall’ section separating the rear seats. Instrument dials can be curated in five bold color themes—Vivid Grellow, Neon Nights, Cyan Fire, Ultraviolet, and Synth Wave—harmonizing the physical and digital elements of the SPIRIT operating system. This digital luxury platform offers remote charging, location details, and exclusive access to the marque’s digital members’ club, Whispers.


DRAMATIC BY DESIGN

Black Badge Spectre is a motor car born of fearless expression and focus, meticulously crafted in the image of the daring individuals it was made to serve. Its landmark power output, chassis technologies, and expansive potential for Bespoke open a vivid new chapter in the highly successful stories of Black Badge – the formidable alter ego of Rolls-Royce.







The fourth generation of the Outlander flagship SUV received a complete design overhaul and features rugged performance that’s perfect for today's dynamic environment as well as innovative technology which can enhance the driving experience in more ways than one! Additionally, this safety-centric model comes equipped with a host of advanced features that ensure occupants remain safe at all times.

 

It is available at Qatar Automobiles Company, the authorised general distributor of Mitsubishi Motors in Qatar, at its showroom on Salwa Road.

 

The Exterior – It’s confident, it’s tough, it’s majestic, it’s the Outlander

The Outlander's exterior design portrays a confident and strong personality, achieved through the “Bold Stride” design concept. To express a bold aura and a sense of presence and stability, the strong, horizontal-themed proportion from front to rear, is contrasted with broad surface lines paired up by sharp edges and complemented with a large-diameter 20-inch alloy wheels and overhanging fenders that highlight the wide body.

 

The front of the Outlander enjoys Mitsubishi Motors’ distinctive next generation Dynamic Shield which aids in enhancing the vehicle’s front look, increasing protection, and improving performance. The sharp looking front combination lights which house daytime running lights and turn signals are positioned higher to provide better visibility for other drivers as well as pedestrians. On the contrary, the low-positioned head lights provide better distant lighting without impairing the vision of oncoming drivers.

 

 



Performance – Rugged engineering maximizes performance and driver confidence

 

The newly developed platform of the Outlander greatly improves collision safety and achieves a high level of steering stability. For the first time ever, Mitsubishi Motors has used an ultra-high tensile strength steel sheet with hot stamping around the cabin to create a high-strength cabin structure with little deformation while also achieving weight reduction. Adopting connected cyclic structures around the engine compartment and cabin increased flexural and torsional rigidity of the body over that of the previous generation. The multi-link suspension and dual pinion electric power steering enhance the overall ride comfort and provide operability with a direct, linear feel. This greatly improves traceability during cornering as well as linear stability and provides driving pleasure.

 

Available in 2WD and 4WD options, the Outlander enjoys a developed 2.5L gasoline engine which produces an improved maximum power of 181/6,000 hp/rpm, 8.9% better than previous generation, and a maximum torque of 244/3,600 nm/rpm. Fuel efficiency has also improved by 2.6%[1] over the previous model, thanks to the 8- speed sport mode continuously variable transmission. The step shift control that changes speeds crisply like a multistage automatic transmission is employed to provide a powerful and agile acceleration, the driver can immediately feel the difference when depressing the accelerator.

 

Used in the center coupling device that conducts front and rear torque distribution, the 4WD models enjoy an electronically controlled 4WD incorporating a hydraulic clutch operated by an electric motor, in addition to the improved S-AWC integrated vehicle dynamics control system. The Brake AYC (Active Yaw Control) is adopted on the rear wheels as well, to provide front and rear wheel-distributed-control.

 

 

The Outlander has several drive modes that allow the driver to select the vehicle driving characteristics that are optimal for a variety of operation styles and driving situations via a dial located in the center console. There are six modes for the 4WD options and five for the 2WD ones. Drive modes include “Normal” for city commute, “Tarmac” for sporty driving on paved roads, “Gravel” for high traction performance and stability on unpaved roads, “Snow” for snowy and other slippery roads, and “Mud” to increase road handling ability on muddy roads, in deep snow and similar conditions. The drive modes bring out the high road handling of the 4WD models and increase the potential of 2WD models to provide a sense of security and reliability. When a mode is selected, an image representing the driving situation is displayed in the meter to allow the driver to intuitively select a mode.

 

The Interior: A comfortable sanctuary for the whole family

 

The linear instrument panel with a powerful horizontal tone gives the vehicle a spacious and roomy look while producing a functional form that makes it easy to see the changes in the vehicle’s position. The upper part is covered with a soft padding wrapped in leather, and intricate stitching to project a high-quality feel. The door panels feature a large area of door inserts, and the same soft padding as the instrument panel and floor console sides is used to create a luxurious and comfortable space.

 

The interior color variations of the P-Line feature genuine leather seats of light gray and black. The instrument panel and door trim are the same color, and real aluminum is used in the shift panel. Saddle tan accent color and semi-aniline leather seats are also available as an option for the P-Line. The H-Line features black suede combination seats and piano black interior material, while the M-Line offers light gray or black fabric material seats and piano black interior material.

 

The front seats have a two-layer urethane structure to ensure utmost comfort and reduced fatigue during long trips. Roominess and overall comfort are enhanced by widening the body and increasing the legroom of the first and second-row seats. In addition, features such as seat heaters, 3-zone automatic climate control, and rear door sunshades are available depending on the trim to make the rear seats more comfortable for a family SUV.

 

Two types of meters are available in the Outlander, depending on the trim. The 12.3-inch full digital driver display equipped with a Mitsubishi Motors’ first full-screen, full- color liquid high-definition crystal display shows a variety of content in an uncluttered manner on a large screen. The display is also equipped with a customization function that allows for information to be freely combined and exhibited. The other high-contrast meter is a 7-inch multi-information display which shows simple arrow navigation in the central information display, it utilizes the high recognition advantage of an analog display while producing a high-quality look with a stereoscopic dial and decorated indicator needle.

 

Available on certain trims, a large 9-inch screen for the center display which is equipped with Smartphone-link Display Audio navigation system. This smoothly provides highly accurate route information using internal maps and navigation functions. Functions including navigation and audio can be easily selected by touching the launch menu icon that is always displayed at the bottom of the screen. By connecting to Android™ or iPhone smartphones, users can also enjoy the Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay applications.

 

To provide driving information safely and more quickly, Mitsubishi Motors has for the first time installed a windshield-type 10.8-inch Head-Up Display (HUD) to project in full color critical information required for driving. The driver can manually turn the HUD ON/OFF and customize the displayed content. Multiple types of information can be displayed simultaneously. In addition to driving information and warnings, such as lane departure, the displayed content can also be navigation and audio information through a link with the center display.

 

Premium materials, require premium technology. The Outlander enjoys 10-speaker premium Bose sound system. Combining large door woofers with dual subwoofers provides a powerful deep bass and a high-quality sound like a live performance.

 

The Outlander is a three-row seven-seat family SUV, which is unique in its class. The seats can be flexibly arranged with multiple configurations to suit the number of passengers and accommodate their luggage. The second- row seats have a sliding and reclining function, as well as a 4:2:4 split division, allowing two adult passengers to comfortably sit in the second row even when carrying long items such as skis.

 

Safety: Advanced driver-assistance system and safety features

 

Safety features in the

Outlander are as advanced as every other aspect of this car. Those features include, Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Departure Warning (LDA), Blind Spot Warning (BSW), Lane Change Assist (LCA), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), Driver Attention Alert (DAA), Rear Automatic Emergency Braking (Rear AEB) and Multi Around Monitor.

 

The front center airbag for the driver's seat and side airbags for the second-row seats are equipped as standard, and a total of 7 airbags are installed. In case of a side collision, the front center airbag deploys between the driver's seat and front passenger seat.
