ROLLS ROYCE UNVEILS ALL ELECTRIC PHANTOM
Rolls Royce isn't known for being radical or following trends, which makes the unveiling by the company of an all electric Phantom rather odd. The vehicle, weighing close to 6,000 lbs., has a massive 71kWh battery, which is nearly 3 times the capacity of the Nissan Leaf. The battery allows the Phantom to cruise along for approximately 125 miles on a single charge. Moving from zero to sixty takes just under 8 seconds, which is pretty impressive for the hulking vehicle. Charge time is around 8 hours. No word on if Rolls will actually produce the vehicle or if they are using as a test bed for future models.
