Rolls-Royce thinking about making a smaller car

Rolls-Royce has revealed that they are planning to launch a smaller car in the international market.

This model would be placed somewhere between the BMW 7 Series and their own Phantom 4-door sedan.

The company has just introduced their Phantom Coupe in the Indian market.

Rolls Royce Motors Cars’ General Manager (South and East Asia Pacific) Matthew Bennett spoke about their future plans: “The Phantom Coupe is the most driver-oriented model in the current line-up. It completes the Phantom family, adding to Phantom, Phantom Extended Wheelbase and Phantom Drophead Coupe.”

Rolls Royce had this to say about the new model being planned: “Though it is a comparatively small car, it will be positioned above the BMW 7 Series and below the Phantom 4-door sedan”.

The company is still very optimistic about the Indian market. Rolls Royce said: “The numbers here are small when compared to Europe and US, but this remains a very important market for us. Growth of high net worth individuals who can afford our cars is high in India. Our numbers grew in 2008 and sold 14 cars. This year, we would be happy if we are able to achieve the same number.”
