The Phantom was introduced in 1925 as the New Phantom, with a larger engine than the Silver Ghost and pushrod operated overhead valves instead of the Silver Ghost's side valves. The name was a nod to the previous Silver Ghost, remarking on the vehicle's extraordinary stealth and quietness in comparison to other vehicles offered at the time. The engine used a bore of 4.25 inches and a stroke of 5.5 inches for a total of 7.7 liters.
