With the Geneva Motor Show nearing, we sure are getting a barrage of teasers from automakers who will reveal their new models or concepts in the March show. Here’s another one: the teaser for Rolls-Royce’s upcoming new luxury sedan model, the 200EX.
The working codename of the new car is the RR4, which was announced by the English car manufacturer back in 2006. The teaser, which shows a close-up of the car’s front, explicitly gives away the name that the car will adopt once revealed: 200EX, as indicated in the license plate area.
The ‘EX’ in the name means it is a prototype, or experimental model. There have been no hints as to the car’s final production name. It is widely speculated that the company might revive the nameplate “Silver Ghost” for the RR4.
The teaser also shows the elegant grille, the Rolls-Royce logo, and part of “The Spirit of Ecstasy” nestled atop the grille. We also see parts of the cubic designs for the headlights, reminiscent of classic Rolls-Royce styling. The RR4 will be drawing on the BMW F01 platform, on which the 7-series vehicles were based.
