2014 Ward’s 10 Best Interiors Winner – Rolls-Royce Wraith
April 30, 2014
WardsAuto editors frugal bunch, but we fell hard for Rolls-Royce Wraith.
Piping hand-sewn into seats $3,200 option.
Two leather shades (Oatmeal and Dark Spice) equally sumptuous.
Wraith tester lacks features now available on mainstream vehicles, such as heated steering wheel and massaging seats.
Soft, ambient lighting part of Wraith's allure.
Without conventional "pillars," 1-piece structural member acts as roof rail.
Chrome organ-pull levers open and close air vents and feel substantial.
Climate-control fan settings replace numerals with “Soft,” “Med” and “High.”
Frosted buttons on dashboard appear as if carved from Waterford crystal.
Starlight headliner, using fiber-optic lights sewn into roof, can be dialed up in brightness...
... or dialed down for romance.
Wraith something high-volume cars will never be: hand-built.
Gauge cluster familiar to Rolls-Royce customers.
Wouldn't be Rolls without fullsize umbrella hidden in door jamb.

WardsAuto editors were sure the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith would crumble in the “value” scoring category for Ward's 10 Best Interiors and fall from contention like every other vehicle priced above $100,000 in the past. But we were wrong. (See related Article: Spectacular Wraith Holds Up in ‘Value’ Category.)
