ROLLS-ROYCE INTRODUCES THE NEW WRAITH KRPTOS FOR NEW BUYERS---KRONICALLY KRYPTIC KRYPTOS FOR A KERRY KRISMAS!
DATOKEEHUACHEE@GMAIL.COM
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars recently announced the new Wraith Kryptos Collection, inspired by one designer’s passion for cryptography. The Wraith Kryptos Collection, which will consist of just 50 motor cars, incorporates a labyrinth of complex ciphers into its beguiling façade.
Rolls-Royce Bespoke Designer, Katrin Lehmann, commented, “The name Kryptos is derived from Ancient Greek, referring to something unseen, hidden and coded, mythical even. Ciphers can be traced through millennia, capturing the imagination of some of the world’s most brilliant minds.”
Previously, Lehmann commented that finding the ‘key’ is the first step in uncovering the mysterious code. With no successful decryptions to date, Rolls-Royce reveals today that the Spirit of Ecstasy figurine on this enigmatic Collection conceals the word KRYPTOS, in code. These seven deciphered characters will aid clients on their journey of discovery as they begin to identify these letters on Wraith Kryptos’ complex fascia.
Clients will be invited to submit their efforts at cracking the code via the marque’s Whispers application, from February 2021. The first to complete the puzzle will be awarded a unique and prestigious prize.
Only two people at the Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, West Sussex, know the full resolution of the sequence – the designer and the Chief Executive Officer. The answer remains in a sealed envelope in the CEO’s safe.
“Wraith Kryptos is a Rolls-Royce Collection like no other. It is embedded with a cryptographic cipher and filled with mystery and intrigue. Today, we reveal the first clue for clients as they begin to receive their cars around the world.”
Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars

“Wraith Kryptos is a Rolls-Royce
Collection like no other. It is embedded with a cryptographic cipher and filled
with mystery and intrigue. Today, we reveal the first clue for clients as they begin
to receive their cars around the world.
The Spirit of Ecstasy, the figurine that
graces the bonnet of every Rolls-Royce motor car, holds the key to uncovering
this code. The word KRYPTOS is engraved in Rolls-Royce cipher around the base
of the figurine, and with this information, clients will be able to embark on
their cryptographic journey. The first client to decrypt this code will receive
a unique gift from Rolls-Royce in recognition of their extraordinary talent!”

Rolls-Royce Motor
Cars has today revealed a clue to its recently unveiled Wraith Kryptos
Collection. As clients around the world begin to receive their highly limited
Wraith Kryptos cars, they will embark on decoding the mysterious messages found
within the Bespoke elements of the motor car’s interior and exterior.
Unveiled in July
2020, each of the 50 cars in the Wraith Kryptos Collection is embellished with
a cipher created by Rolls-Royce Bespoke Designer, Katrin Lehmann. Previously,
Lehmann commented that finding the ‘key’ is the first step in uncovering the mysterious
code.
With no successful
decryptions to date, Rolls-Royce reveals today that the Spirit of Ecstasy
figurine on this enigmatic Collection conceals the word KRYPTOS, in code. These
seven deciphered characters will aid clients on their journey of discovery as
they begin to identify these letters on Wraith Kryptos’ complex fascia.
Similarly, the
embroidery on the headrests translates as the double-R monogram, rendered in
the cipher. The Bespoke team hopes that, together, these clues may provide a
‘way in’ that enables owners to attempt the puzzle.
Clients will be
invited to submit their efforts at cracking the code via the marque’s Whispers
application, from February 2021. The first to complete the puzzle will be
awarded a unique and prestigious prize.
Only two people at the Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, West Sussex, know the full resolution of the sequence – the designer and the Chief Executive Officer. The answer remains in a sealed envelope in the CEO’s safe.
