The Dawn dominates the Rolls Royce stand in Frankfurt. The newest addition to the Rolls luxury family is based on the Ghost and Wraith, and it’s described by Rolls as “the sexiest Rolls-Royce ever built.” The company is paying homage to the Silver Dawn — a name applied to 28 vehicles from 1950 to 1954 — with the introduction of the Rolls-Royce Dawn convertible.

The beautiful and elegant Dawn features a “Mandarin” interior beneath “Midnight Sapphire” bodywork.

Rolls Royce Dawn is “the quietest open-top car ever made,” the company said in a news release. The roof can be operated “in total silence” in 22 seconds at up to 50 km/h, or about 31mph.
