Rolls Royce Luxury Cars
An electric Rolls-Royce car remains a possibility, the company's boss has suggested.
But it would be "wrong for the brand and wrong for our customers" to make a decision without exploring all options, added Rolls-Royce Motor Cars chief executive Torsten Muller-Otvos.
There has been talk over the past two years of a possible electric Rolls and at one point it seemed possible that such a vehicle could be produced by the end of 2010.
Speaking to the BBC, Mr Muller-Otvos said all options for alternatively-fuelled vehicles were being considered and that nothing had been ruled out.
He went on: "We are not going to make any rash decisions. It would be wrong for the brand and wrong for our customers if we were to take a decision without fully exploring all options."
He was speaking as Rolls-Royce announced record annual car sales in 2010 - up 171% on 2009 and more than double the previous record set in 2008.
All regions demonstrated significant sales growth, with particularly strong results seen in Asia Pacific, the USA and the Middle East.
The USA remained the biggest single market for Rolls-Royce in 2010, followed by China and the UK.

Porsche 911 GT2
Welcome to the new 911 GT2 RS. Let’s talk about first and fourth gears. First gear is relatively long
for a first – when you pull away initially, before you get used to it, you give the clutch a dip because the ratio is a little taller than you expect, and you need to feed in a few more
revs to get it moving. First runs to 78kph, or 48mph at peak revs of 6,750rpm.
I’m here to tell you that when you launch this car at full throttle, first gear disappears faster than you could possibly imagine. The GT2 RS’s engine is a work of art – among its features are a lightweight single-mass flywheel (8kg lighter than its GT2 equivalent) and two variable-geometry vane turbochargers. This engine runs at 1.6 bar of boost. Not sure if you have a mental marker for bars of boost, but it’s time you did because 1.6 is a lot of bars – the standard 911 Turbo, for example, runs at only 0.8 bar.
Combine this enormous level of boost with the lightweight
flywheel, and factor in a racing-spec flat-six 3.6-litre base motor that is free-revving in normally aspirated form and you get an idea of what happens when you give the RS the full works in first gear. BANG and it’s gone in a microflash, leaving your gearchange hand lagging and your eyelids fluttering and the engine on the limiter the first time it happens. It is shocking, and looking at the figures, 62mph disappears in 3.5 seconds, so you’re hunting for second in about 2.5. Second continues the trend and revs equally quickly up to 80mph in a single, seamless surge, third gear gets you to 109mph and pulls with the same urgency as the first two, and then there’s fourth.
Fourth. Jesus H Christ, Fourth. This side of a Bugatti Veyron or a superbike, I have never experienced anything on the road like Fourth Gear In A 911 GT2 RS. It gets capital letters because it’s significant and it’s bent right out of proportion. The car pulls fourth like a quick hot-hatch pulls second – it is the same experience as the first three gears. I’m not joking: Fourth in a GT2

Saturn Sky Fast Car History & Images
The styling for the Sky, penned by Franz von Holzhausen, is based on the Vauxhall VX Lightning Concept's design. It is available in some European markets as the Opel GT. A rebadged version named the Daewoo G2X was unveiled as a concept vehicle for the South Korean market in 2006. The production version was released in September 2007. The Solstice, Sky, and GT are built in Delaware, as was the G2X until 2008. The aggressive styling garnered praise as a welcome departure from traditional Saturn design.
The Wilmington Assembly plant closed in July 2009, ending production as both the Pontiac and Saturn nameplates were retired.
