Rolls Royce is launching the Wraith across the globe in a phased manner. The last stop was in Australia at the Sydney Harbourfront. We are not sure which is the next stop, but for certain India launch is near as the super-luxury car has already arrived in India. India launch of Wraith for 2013 Q3 was announced even before it was unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. Expected to be launched just ahead of the upcoming Diwali and Dusshera festivals in October/November.

At the recent launch of Wraith in Australia, Paul Harris, Regional Director, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars – Asia Pacific, said: “The most powerful Rolls-Royce motor car in history has been eagerly awaited by our Australian customers. We foresee it being a sought-after addition to the Rolls-Royce family in Australia, a market which has embraced two-door Rolls-Royce cars. Wraith stretches the boundaries for Rolls-Royce and will help steer our future.”
