This bespoke Rolls-Royce Dawn brings automobiles and architecture together
British luxury automaker Rolls-Royce in collaboration with architect Kengo Kuma has created a bespoke version of its Dawn car. Called the Dawn Kita Edition, it reflects the essence of a luxury residence in central Tokyo called "The Kita." The premium vehicle visually imitates the building and exhibits several cosmetic changes both inside-out. However, mechanically it remains unchanged. Here are more details.
The car has a large chromed grille
The Rolls-Royce Dawn Kita Edition has a muscular bonnet, a chromed grille, sleek headlights, a wide air dam, and a faint bronze hue which is revealed under the sun. It sports Silver Haze paintwork. The car is flanked by ORVMs, sharp body lines, and designer multi-spoke wheels. Triangular-shaped taillights, dual exhaust tips, and open-pore Royal Walnut paneling are available on the rear.
It runs on a 563hp, 6.6-liter engine
The Rolls-Royce Dawn Kita Edition draws power from a 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V12 petrol engine linked to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The mill generates 563hp of power and 820Nm of torque. The car can sprint from 0-100km/h in five seconds and clock a top-speed of 250km/h.
The vehicle has a luxurious, 4-seater cabin
The Rolls-Royce Dawn Kita Edition has a luxurious 4-seater cabin, featuring a dashboard with an ombre transition from Piano Selby Grey to Piano Black colors. Parking sensors and a multifunctional steering wheel are also available. It houses a touchscreen infotainment system with support for the latest connectivity options. For ensuring the passengers' safety, multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, and a rear-view camera are available.
