Rolls-Royce Ghost Specs

Every Rolls-Royce Ghost generation, measured

One row per generation. Watch the weight column — that is where most of the change happens for the Rolls-Royce Ghost, -55 lb of it since 2012, and it is the number that decides fuel use, tyre wear and how far the car takes to stop.

From 2012 to today the Ghost gained 2.4″ of length (1%) and -55 lb of weight (-1%). A modern compact often outweighs the mid-size car of a generation before.

Ghost year by year

Measured every model year, not just at generation changes — 15 years on record for the Rolls-Royce Ghost. Small moves inside a generation are facelifts; the jumps are the 3 new platforms below.

Will a Ghost fit

The practical question behind every dimensions search, and for a 18.2-foot Rolls-Royce Ghost it has a straight answer. A single-car garage in the US is typically 20 feet deep and a street parking space about 18, so the Ghost clears the garage by 0.8 ft. We allow a foot of clearance in both — nobody parks to the millimetre.

Against cars of the same length

Compared with 213 vehicles within ten inches of the same length — a fair proxy for «cars of this size», regardless of what the marketing calls them.

A longer wheelbase for the same overall length means shorter overhangs — usually more cabin space and a steadier ride. At 5,467 lb the Rolls-Royce Ghost is 703 lb heavier than typical for its size, which generally shows up as fuel economy and stopping distance.

How we measure

Dimensions come from NHTSA vPIC and Transport Canada vehicle records — manufacturer-declared figures, held in metric and converted to inches and pounds for display, 15 measured model years for the Rolls-Royce Ghost between 2012 and 2026.

One row per generation, not per model year: manufacturers rarely change the body between facelifts, and the Rolls-Royce Ghost fits into 3 rows instead of 15. Where a generation offered several body styles, the figures are the base measurements for that generation of the Rolls-Royce Ghost.
