Rolls-Royce Sweptail - the most expensive car of all time

Rolls-Royce has just introduced the Sweptail, a bespoke model designed according to the wishes of a special customer at the Concorso d'Eleganza event (Italy), to the surprise of many wealthy guests.

$12.8 million is the price of being unique. The luxury car is not studded with precious stones or diamonds but its value is far beyond what the average person can imagine.

The Rolls-Royce Sweptail is a car based on the Phantom Coupe.

Exclusive models created by Christian Von Koenigsegg and Horacio Pagani can easily be owned for just a million dollars or more. The Bugatti Chiron, once the most expensive car in the world, costs “only” $3 million. But there is still a gap at the top of the pyramid – the super-rich who don’t want others driving the same car.

That's the Rolls-Royce customer. The British luxury car company pampers its customers so much that it designs a completely different car based on the chassis of a Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe.

The ultra-luxury interior is yacht-inspired and has just two seats.

According to the Telegraph, the price to own this super product is up to 10 million pounds (equivalent to 12.8 million USD). This number makes Sweptail the most expensive new car ever sold, even taking into account the inflation rate. This is a super rare Rolls-Royce and there is no second one like it.

This car is proof that if you have the money, manufacturers will make anything you want.

The inspiration for Sweptail comes from Rolls-Royce classics built in the 1920s and 1930s. The client is described as a "connoisseur and collector of unique items, including superyachts and private aircraft".

The brief was to create an exclusive two-door, two-seater Rolls-Royce with a sophisticated glass roof and bespoke features.

Every line on the car is calculated to reach perfect proportions.

Rolls-Royce has taken innovation to the extreme and put a strong personal stamp on the car.

The Sweptail embodies the grandeur, splendor and grandeur of the 1925 Phantom I, designed by Jonckheere. The exquisite glass roof, dramatic lines and balanced proportions complement the diagonal rear angle of the 1934 Phantom II Streamline, designed by Park Ward.

The Rolls-Royce Sweptail proves one thing, the manufacturer will do whatever the customer needs.

The car was equipped with the spiral tail engine of the 1934 Phantom II two-door and the flowing design of the 1934 Park Ward 20/25 Limousine Coupe.
