Rolls-Royce has announced a long wheelbase of the all-new Ghost, with the extra rear space adding a whopping $112,000 to the price tag.

Dubbed the Ghost Extended, it shares most of its features with the regular Ghost revealed earlier this month but adds 170mm to the rear legroom.

Australia is one of the first markets to catch a glimpse of the car, with a Ghost Extended being craned seven floors up onto the top of the five-star Calile Hotel in Brisbane for rooftop showings to potential clients.

Rolls said customers had wanted a Ghost with more room in the back for conducting business, without compromising its driving dynamics.

Four-wheel-drive and four-wheel steering aid a surefooted drive, while, Rolls only extended the rear door and body around the rear door apertures so as to not disrupt the design too much.

In addition to the extra room, to up the rear cabon’s luxury Rolls has also added the option of a reclinng and massaging business-class-like seat and a champagne fridge, which can be set to either 6 or 11 degrees as a Master Sommelier advised these were the optimal respective temperatures for serving non-vintage or vintage Champagne.

The Ghost Extended is available for $740,000, up from the shorter Ghost’s $628,000 price tag, before adding on options or on road costs.
