Rolls bosses made the announcement in a one-page open letter to all stakeholders in the project – potential customers, employees, suppliers and media – signed by CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös and chairman Peter Schwarzenbauer.
The said “many of our discerning customers have urged us to develop this car” after seeing artists impressions of the car from earlier suggestions it might be built.
