The closer you get to it, the more unique it looks. The hood features a swirl-like finish that <a class=\"injectedLinkmain\" href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/rolls_royce\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:2;\">Rolls-Royce<\/a> calls Marbled Paint Spill. It&#8217;s &#8220;inspired by the informal elegance of coastal California,&#8221; according to the British company, and it required over 160 hours of design and production work. Painters added silver lacquer and multiple layers of clearcoat to achieve a smooth, seamless finish.<\/p>\n<p>The yellow theme continues inside with a blend of Bespoke Lemon Yellow and Citrine Yellow upholstery on the seats, the door panels (which feature the same basic Starlight illumination that Rolls-Royce developed for its headliners), and the dashboard. Grace White and Slate Gray accents add a finishing touch to the look. The stalks are upholstered in yellow as well, and the digital instrument cluster gets yellow dials.<\/p>\n<p>For the interior trim, Rolls-Royce started with pieces of wood and painted them in Cashmere Gray paint that it infused with silver mica flakes. The trim consequently matches the Slate Gray accents on the seats, and we&#8217;re told that it sparkles when you view it in direct light.<\/p>\n<p>Like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2023\/10\/09\/2024-roll-royce-spectre-five-thoughts-review\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:3;\">the standard Spectre<\/a>, the Semaphore is powered by a pair of electric motors (one per axle) linked to a 102-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion <a class=\"injectedLinkmain\" href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/battery\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:4;\">battery<\/a> pack. Rolls-Royce pegs the system&#8217;s total output at 577 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque.
