The car has a new glass panel
The cabin of the Ghost Series II also gets a new glass panel that runs across the width of the dashboard. The software of the digital instrument cluster has been updated, allowing buyers to choose an exterior color-matching theme. The in-car connectivity system has also been improved, allowing rear seat passengers to connect two streaming devices to their respective screens. The rear infotainment system can now also be paired with wireless headphones.
The car has a 6.75-liter, twin-turbo V12 engine
