The car will tour in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and North America during 2011, serving as a test bed to gather a bank of research data for future decisions on electric powered cars to be made within the Rolls-Royce Motor Cars organisation.<\/p>\n<p>The 102EX is also known as the Phantom Experimental Electric (EE). It is the company\u2019s intention to carefully get opinions and reactions to alternative drive-train options from a range of people including owners, enthusiasts, members of the public and the media. Through test drives, owners will be given the opportunity to experience an alternative drive-train technology and to feedback their experiences, thoughts and concerns directly to Rolls-Royce.<\/p>\n<p>While there are no plans to develop a production version, as one of the company\u2019s EX models it will try to answer questions of its audience. These include the car\u2019s ability to deliver an acceptable range between re-charges and to operate in extreme weather conditions. But also to benchmark reliability and quality against customer expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for the official release of the Rolls-Royce 102EX at the 2011 Geneva Auto Salon.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gtspiritmedia.com\/gtspirit\/uploads\/2011\/02\/rolls_royce_motor_cars_confirms_electric_test_vehicle_project_01.jpg\" alt=\"Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Confirms Electric Test Vehicle Project 01\" title=\"Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Confirms Electric Test Vehicle Project 01\" width=\"480\" height=\"280\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-34776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/rolls_royce_motor_cars_confirms_electric_test_vehicle_project_01.jpg 480w, https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/rolls_royce_motor_cars_confirms_electric_test_vehicle_project_01-300x175.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gtspiritmedia.com\/gtspirit\/uploads\/2011\/02\/rolls_royce_motor_cars_confirms_electric_test_vehicle_project_02.jpg\" alt=\"Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Confirms Electric Test Vehicle Project 02\" title=\"Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Confirms Electric Test Vehicle Project 02\" width=\"480\" height=\"280\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-34774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/rolls_royce_motor_cars_confirms_electric_test_vehicle_project_02.jpg 480w, https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/rolls_royce_motor_cars_confirms_electric_test_vehicle_project_02-300x175.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has confirmed the development of the Rolls-Royce 102EX, a one-off, fully electric powered Phantom, to debut at the Geneva Motor Show on 1 March 2011.
