Back in 2016 Rolls-Royce launched ‘Black Badge’. Wanting a new, slightly rebellious strand to youth things up a bit, Black Badge offers Rollers (it’s been available on everything apart from Phantom so far) more performance and luxury but in a contemporary darkened aesthetic. Now there’s a new one: the 2022 Ghost Black Badge. So Top Gear decided to spec the blackest Rolls-Royce ever, then take it on a journey through darkness. As there’s more to black than being the opposite of white. As Top Gear Magazine’s Head of Content, Rowan Horncastle, will explain.

The most important thing you need to know about Black, is to carry a lint roller around with you 😀

Black Bay 58 looking right at home.
I love black
I dont care who that guy is, but I hate him
I know it would make no sense but a Black Badge Phantom would be wild
I am sure if Jeremy team made this video, this video now gets over million views..
What I see is heat absorbing paint and it would be in white if they would care even small bit about global warming it could be black if they would care a lot road's would be in white.
awful music for this video.
Just “blackcause” you like that color, it doesn’t make it wrong with choosing white???…
The Blackest…..Tho….Mmmmmm🤣🤣🤣🤣
Total black? Are we going for a ride or for funeral? Ugly
Should've brought a black guy to review the car
Was looking for a replacement car after my Accord would become too old, thanks for the review!
…except black is not a color but rather absence of it…:P
Not vantablack/10
Indian kings and the Beatles were pimping their rides before anybody
I think a two-tone black paint would look better
You ruined the streak because of your white skin
