Sitting proudly above the grille is the Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament, while the posterior features a new set of LED tail lights. A few other notable features of the model include electrically-controlled pneumatic bellow, active anti-roll bars, and adaptive dampers, which are called Magic Carpet Ride in Rolls Royce speak.
Interior:

Moreover, it also gets umbrellas embedded in the rear doors.

Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII Verdict
There is nothing in the global car market that competes with the Phantom and for good reasons. It’s grand in appearance, has top levels of luxuries and technology along with a sofa-like rear seat. The legendary 6.75-litre V12 engine is supremely powerful and smooth at the same time. All of this comes at a price, though. It remains an unachievable dream car for many.
