What’s new on the Rolls Royce mascot?
The new mascot follows a similar design to the original one that was made by Charles Sykes. The revised version sits 17mm lower than the current version. Rolls Royce says that this new mascot will give an ‘authentically contemporary aura’ and will be more focused on showing speed and focus. The design had also been reshaped to be more aerodynamic. The robe on the older mascot, which was often perceived as wings, will sit lower on the new mascot.
