An all-electric Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Just think about it: If the engineers do their jobs properly, the occupants should sense absolutely no difference in the near-silent, creamy smooth surge of power that wafts them from estate to yacht, or factory to mansion.

And now we have video, courtesy of Rolls-Royce itself, whose CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös discusses the 102 EX Phantom Experimental Electric concept that was unveiled this week at the Geneva Motor Show.

The car will embark on a year-long world tour once the show closes, with the company showing the car to owners, prospects, enthusiasts, and members of the media globally.

The goal is simply to learn whether the electric Phantom provides all the qualities that are expected of a Rolls-Royce, without compromise.

The video is below, with other coverage including live photos of the 102 EX Experimental Electric on the show floor and more video as well.
