As reported by The Telegraph, Rolls-Royce manufactured three Tail Boats, one of which was custom-made for music icons Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Jay-Z is recognized as the first rapper to achieve billionaire status, with a net worth exceeding $1 billion in 2021. Discover the unique features of the luxurious car designed exclusively for this wealthy power couple.
The Tail Boat is a luxury vehicle designed by the British car industry specifically for an incredibly wealthy individual or a small group of individuals. Unlike the Phantom or Ghost, which are expensive cars available to the public, the Tail Boat is custom-made to meet the specific requests and desires of its owner. For instance, the Boat Tail convertible, which Jay-Z and Beyoncé are rumored to be driving around the Mediterranean’s Cote d’Azur, is an excellent example of the kind of lavish vehicle that can be created for personal enjoyment. The blue color of the car and its accessories may also be attributed to the owner’s preferences.
According to CEO Torsten Müller-tvös, the Boat Tail is the most ambitious project ever developed by the automaker. The vehicle took four years to develop, with only three units ever manufactured. The car debuted in 2017 and comes with a hefty price tag of $28 million, which is twice as much as another unique car, the Sweptail that was released in the same year for $14 million. The British automaker’s approach to constructing unique vehicles is best described as “coachbuilt,” which offers the highest level of individualization and personalization for clients. The Boat Tail and Sweptail are two such examples.
The Boat Tail owned by Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s family is modeled after the 1932 automobile with the same name. It boasts two doors, four seats, and a massive length of almost 6 meters. During the development phase, Rolls-Royce design experts frequently visit the owner’s apartment to consult on the car’s accessories and features.
