Rolls Royce Begins Testing Next Generation Aluminium Space Frame Architecture

It’s no secret that a new generation of Rolls-Royce products is on its way, with the luxury automaker already admitting that work is underway for a new SUV (although the company would rather the term ‘high-body vehicle’).

To underpin that new vehicle, as well as a successor to the ultra-luxurious Phantom range, and the slightly smaller Ghost, Wraith and Dawn further down the track, Rolls-Royce is developing a thoroughly modern new aluminium space frame architecture.

For use beneath the new SUV the platform will be able to accommodate an all-wheel-drive system, a first for the brand, as well as offering a variety of wheelbase lengths, and both low and high-riding suspension systems.
