Confirmed at the Geneva electric Rolls

You got the official confirmation: the design of the Rolls-Royce 102EX, a version of the Phantom driven by an electric motor, has become a reality and will make its debut with a prototype at the Geneva Motor Show. During 2011 the car will undergo several tests whose results will be crucial to the decision to use alternative engines for future models of the House.

The tests will take place in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and North America. The CEO of Rolls-Royce Torsten Müller-Ötvös from headquarters in Goodwood, said that the House, known worldwide as a prestigious car manufacturer, has created the first vehicle in the world in ultra-luxury segment, driven by an electric motor.

No word yet if the design of the 102EX, also called Experimental Phantom Electric (EE) will be earmarked for production, but surely the first step toward an alternative future for the brand and the basis from which to explore new technologies to adapt to Rolls tomorrow. Will be taken into consideration the ability of this car to offer a range between charges and acceptable to behave well even in extreme weather conditions.
