The 2006 Phantom is a 4-door, up to 5-passenger luxury sedan, available in one trim only, the Sedan.
Upon introduction, the Phantom is equipped with a standard 6.75-liter, V12, 453-horsepower engine that achieves 12-mpg in the city and 19-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard.
Ranking as the sixth-generation Phantom, the ultra-luxury sedan holds a 453-horsepower, 6.8-liter V-12. Aluminum space-frame construction makes the sedan the lightest structure ever used by Rolls-Royce.
Though it's no lightweight at more than 5,500 pounds, Rolls-Royce says the Phantom can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds. Both regular- and long-wheelbase versions are offered. Little has changed for the 2006 model year, but Rolls-Royce now offers a partition option for long-wheelbase Phantoms that provides more privacy for rear passengers.
All mechanical components, painted body panels and onboard technology are created in Germany under BMW auspices. These items are then sent to southern England for final assembly and personalization of the sedan's interior.
Both the vast space allotted for passenger privacy in the backseat and the rear-hinged back doors are reminiscent of the past. Those "suicide doors" permit easier access to the rear compartment and can be closed at the touch of a button so occupants need not suffer the indignity of a wet arm if it happens to be raining.
