In its fourth and final teaser before the 2014 Wraith (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/2014+rolls-royce+wraith/) is introduced next week, Rolls-Royce (http://www.autoblog.com/rolls-royce/) has released another image of the car showing a distinct fastback appearance. We've seen this car teased in its profile (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/01/22/rolls-royce-wraith-officially-revealed-in-profile/) before, but that image had a heavy shadow over the rear of the car obscuring what should be the Wraith's defining element.
Rolls-Royce motorcars aren't exactly known for having overtly sporty proportions, but this could all change with the Wraith's styling. Judging by the teased drawing and official words from Rolls-Royce, the coupe's roofline will flow practically in a straight line from the A-pillar back to the rear of the car. With such a design, the Wraith could well become one of the world's most elegant and expensive hatchbacks, though it may also have a conventional hinged trunk opening.
Over the last month, we've also seen a rear shot of the car (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/02/12/rolls-royce-releases-another-shadowy-look-at-new-wraith/) as well as glimpse of what the interior has in store (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/02/12/rolls-royce-releases-another-shadowy-look-at-new-wraith/), but the two images showing the car's profile give us our best idea of what to expect when the car is unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/geneva+motor+show/). Until then, you can check out our winter testing spy shots and read a brief quote from Rolls-Royce design director Giles Taylor in the press release posted below (http://www.motorgen.com/2013/02/25/latest-rolls-royce-wraith-teaser-reveals-fastback-form/#continued).Continue reading Latest Rolls-Royce Wraith teaser reveals fastback form (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/02/26/latest-rolls-royce-wraith-teaser-reveals-fastback-form/)
