The world's most luxurious car maker, Rolls Royce, might have plans to build an <a href="http://www.myhev.com" >electric vehicle</a>. It might sound strange for these heavy tanks to electrify, most cars that go electric go for a light weight approach in general, not something Rolls Royce is known for.
It makes perfect sense though, those heavy gas guzzlers can save a lot of fuel by using the much more efficiebt electric motor. Also, those motors are a lot more silent which seems to fit perfectly ob the Rolls Royce experience.
Report: Electric Rolls-Royce limo in the works? - Autoblog Green

Rolls-Royce is well known for high-end luxury automobiles like the Ghost and Phantom. These vehicles, if piloted with nothing more than a gentle application of the throttle, will return 15 miles per gallon. That’s not exactly a number that’s going to woo over a carbon-conscious buyer. However, there’s been an ample amount of speculation over the past two years suggesting that Rolls-Royce is actively developing a rechargeable luxo-barge.
