The Rolls Royce Phantom II is a jewel of motorsport created in 1929 and of which there are very few functional examples. If we saw what this myth is capable of in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, imagine what its 2024 version could do: it is a unique copy, the one that the protagonist of Aquaman has transformed into an electric car. Actor Jason Momoa, who achieved international fame riding as the leader of the Dothraki people in Game of Thrones, can boast of the most exclusive mount in the world: for 18 months, the specialized factory Electrogenic was working to achieve Khal Drogo’s dream.
This historic model is not just a whim of a lover of free living and sustainability: Momoa plans to include it in the second season of On the Roam, the Max series – the new platform born from HBO and Discovery, owned by Warner Bros. – in which the actor travels across the US to learn about the lives of pioneering creatives, from athletes and musicians to motorcycle makers and car restorers. Without a doubt, this project of freedom on wheels will make him cope better with his breakup with Lisa Bonet, with whom he has shared 18 years and has had two children.
The 1929 Phantom II is powered by a gigantic 7.7-liter inline six-cylinder engine but now its electric powertrain is whisper-quiet thanks to a 93 kWh battery and a 201 hp electric motor. “This means honoring an old car without losing any of its character.” Thus, this centenary Phantom II retains its original HJ Mulliner bodywork
