Rolls-Royce celebrated the recent total solar eclipse with a special version of the Ghost created by its Bespoke Design team. Dubbed the Black Badge Ghost Ekleipsis Special Collection, the latest special Rolls-Royce is limited to just 25 units worldwide, with only five of those delivered in North America.

The limited edition model was first introduced by Rolls-Royce in October last year. This was one of the highlights of a recent total solar eclipse viewing event hosted by the British brand in Niagara, Ontario, Canada.

What makes the Ghost Ekleipsis Special Collection different from ordinary Ghosts is its Lyrical Copper exterior paint, which contains powdered copper pigment that shines when exposed to light. Rolls-Royce also finished some parts in Mandarin, including the parts under the Pantheon Grille and the brake calipers. The car also features the same Mandarin color for a hand-painted outline running down each side.

Other special touches have been applied to the car's interior, including a Bespoke Starlight Headliner with a special animation that mimics the shape of a total solar eclipse. Additionally, the car features an illuminated dashboard panel with 1,846 laser-etched stars representing the total solar eclipse timeline. There is also a 0.5 carat diamond.

“The creative concept for the Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Ékleipsis is drawn from the impressive natural spectacle of a total solar eclipse; “It is a unique event in nature that supports the rarity and visual impact of the Rolls-Royce Private Collection,” said Martin Fritsches, CEO of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars North America. “Our Bespoke Collective of designers, engineers and craftsmen at Goodwood have captured the magic of this celestial alignment in a truly stunning Rolls-Royce interpretation. “Our event in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario celebrates this amazing phenomenon.”
