Race Car Talk

The future Rolls-Royce 200EX will be powered by 6.6L V12 engine that develop 507 horsepower attached to auto ZF gearbox. In addition, the upcoming car will prove lower fuel consumption.

With new 6.6L V12 engine, the car will be most impressive and powerful in class. The aluminium block engine, longitudinally mounted under a 200EX’s spacious hood, controls its drive to rear-wheels through new 8-speed auto gearbox developed in support with a German expert ZF.

There has been a great deal of interest in this car since we first talked about producing a new model series in the autumn of 2006 and the reaction 200EX received at its unveiling at Geneva was very positive. As we move another step closer to the start of production at Goodwood, it is exciting to be able to share some of the specific technical details with customers and the media. RR4 will deliver an authentic Rolls-Royce experience to owners, so expect peerless comfort and build quality. However, we have consciously engineered this car to be more involving and dynamic for those owners around the world that will wish to drive it themselves.

- Mr. Tom Purves (Roll-Royce CEO) said at the event.
