Rolls Royce’s next will be more silent than ever

The British luxury car manufacturer Rolls Royce is all set to introduce sound deadening technology in their upcoming Ghost sedan. The automaker has also released final footage of its animated film that offers insight into the new Ghost technology, revealing the unique engineering formula for serenity.

With their claims to make Ghost quietest cars in their lineup, Rolls Royce has added around 100kg of sound insulation to provide the most relaxing and calm four-wheel transport experience money can buy. The expected result will be an innovation.

To convert their vision into a reality, the Rolls-Royce team began by adapting the sedan's aluminum spaceframe architecture. The automaker laid extensive acoustic tuning and sound-reduction development inside the cabin space.

The suggested change in the technology has resulted in twin-skinned bulkheads, double glazing glasses to add more quietness inside the cabin. The vehicle will also be adding a massive amount of sound-deadening material in the roof, boot, and floor.

Talking about their innovation, Tom Davis-Reason, new Ghost Acoustic Engineering Lead, commented, “The extraordinary acoustic quality of the new Ghost is the result of significant engineering developments and fastidious attention to detail, but it really is underpinned by the marque’s proprietary aluminum architecture,” he further added, “There is simply no way we could have created such an acoustically refined environment using a steel platform.”

Interestingly, once the sound team had worked on improving the architecture inside the cabin, all other components that produced unacceptable levels of noise were discarded and completely redesigned. Designers even went ahead and redesigned the inside of the air conditioning ducts. They smoothened and insulated the inside ducts to eliminate intrusive noises.

To add on to the final masterpiece, the engineer at Rolls Royce worked on a ‘whisper’ undertone. To achieve this, the engineers had to tune each interior part to a specific resonant frequency. This task included the creation of acoustically tuned damping units for the seat frames, as well as a suite of ports between the cabin and the large 500L boot to ensure the low frequency it generated was consistent with the upcoming Ghost’s sound note.

Lastly, the company hints at the launch of their ‘quietest’ car later this year.
