Behold: a £1m+, fully-electric, seven-seat Rolls-Royce Phantom V

Lunaz unveils its latest commission: a bespoke Rolls powered by electrons

Published: 24 Jun 2025

There are many cars available for purchase in the United Kingdom that offer seven seats. A sensible Hyundai Santa Fe. The wallet-friendly Dacia Jogger. Premium German-ness in the (large) shapes of an Audi Q7 or BMW X7, or the Big Daddy of them all, the LWB Range Rover.

Alternatively, if you’re swimming in disposable income, you can purchase a fully electric, bespoke and breathtakingly gorgeous Rolls-Royce Phantom V built by electro-modders Lunaz. An unlikely cross-shop, admittedly, but yeesh, look at the thing.

“We’re proud to deliver this truly one-of-one electric Rolls-Royce Phantom by Lunaz to Adar Poonawalla, a visionary whose commitment to innovation aligns perfectly with our own. This commission represents the very pinnacle of modern luxury,” Lunaz founder David Lorenz told TG.

It was commissioned to celebrate Rolls-Royce’s centenary and treated to 5,500 hours of work replacing and re-engineering more than 11,000 components. The most important of which remain a secret: Lunaz has only said this Phantom V is powered by its “proprietary 80kWh electric powertrain”.

So like a Rolls should always be, it’s quiet. And filled with the kind of luxury you’d expect for a car valued at over £1,000,000. There’s plenty of leather and wood panelling along with analogue dials, but there’s also sat nav, wifi, and a “sophisticated” passenger infotainment suite.

And like yer Santa Fes and Joggers, this Phantom does of course get heated seats all round, climate control and “discreet” USB charging ports. Unlike those sensible family SUVs, Lunaz's stunning Phantom also gets an electronic privacy screen and a handcrafted whisky bar. Because of course.

“A Rolls-Royce Phantom has always whispered rather than shouted and this commission does so with even greater authority,” added Lorenz. “It’s far more than a restoration – it’s a radical reinvention of a true icon. A rolling work of art for a new era.”
