Baby Roller: Rolls-Royce Ghost Launched!
 
Rolls-Royce have finally confirmed the baby roller for production at the Shanghai Motor Show 2009. The company CEO Tom Purves announced that the new, smaller model will be called Ghost.
The car codenamed ‘RR4′ nicknamed ‘baby Rolls-Royce’ was launched as a concept car at this year’s Geneva Motor Show as the 200EX.
The company will showcase the production-ready car at this year’s frankfurt motor show and subsequently will go on sale later this year. The 200EX is said to be extremely close in looks to the production version.
The Ghost name was used by Rolls-Royce Motors cars between 1906 and 1925 and a total of 7,876 cars were built with either a 40 or a 50 bhp variant.
The company bosses have said that the Ghost will be built using the same materials and same high manufacturing standards as those of the Phantom.
The Ghost stands an impressive 5.4 Meters.
