Four wheel disc brakes were specified for the Corniche, with ventilated discs added for 1972. The car used the Rolls-Royce V8 engine of 6.75 liters with an aluminium silicon alloy block and aluminium cylinder heads, with twin SU carburettors at first. The Corniche was different from other Silver Shadows in having exclusive half wheel covers with stainless steel trim, a three spoke steering wheel with a wood rim and Rolls-Royce's first standard tachometer.
