Like the morning dawn, the Rolls-Royce Dawn brings a lifestyle age to its carriage of bespoke luxury

Rolls-Royce Dawn: Dawn After The Darkness

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars debuted the Dawn in Singapore for the first time in Southeast Asia,ushering in the new full four-seater, super-luxury Drophead Coupé, the company’s first new convertible in 8 years. Singapore’s Sentosa Island was chosen as the launch venue, one of region’s most exclusive social hotspots.

Dawn’s highly contemporary, four-seat super-luxury Drophead is an evolution of Rolls-Royce’s design language, with one clear objective: to make a car that looks as beautiful with its roof up as with it down. Roof down, the sensuous lines of Dawn are evident. From the side the steep rake of the windscreen, the swage line that flows over the rear haunches and the high beltline that rises along the profile give the impression of effortless dynamism. The very same rising beltline wraps around the rear passenger cabin to create a cosseting effect.

The new Rolls-Royce Dawn features 80% unique body panels and even new tyres as special fitment for the model. Grip is provided by runflat tyres, metrically sized at 540mm (20 inches) in diameter. These tyres enable the Dawn to run on a deflated tyre for at least 100 miles/160km at speeds up to 50mph/80kmh before needing a replacement.
