About the Ghost Mk I facelift

The 2014 Rolls-Royce Ghost Mk I facelift is a rear-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 2,360 kg with 563 bhp, which works out at 239 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 239 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.06 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 1,259th quickest to 60 mph, and the 5th quickest of the 8 Rolls-Royces here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 111.0 mph, the 957th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Rolls-Royce Ghost Mk I facelift is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
