Electric Rolls-Royce limo in the works?

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.

The Daily Mail reports that Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes, Rolls-Royce's chief executive officer, recently said that the automaker considers an "alternatively fueled experimental" model to be a "good idea" for the brand. Mueller-Oetvoes confirmed that the automaker is considering "all options" to power this experimental vehicle.
