The Rolls-Royce B range was a range of petrol engines first intended to be installed in a car but in 1943 developed into a range to power the British Army's wheeled vehicles.[1]

The range included B40, B60, B80 and B81 versions.

The Alvis Saladin and Rolls-Royce Phantom IV were fitted with 8-cylinder versions.
