Rolls-Royce boss Ian Robertson has revealed more details of the company’s baby Phantom.

During an interview at last weeks Shanghai motor show, Robertson stated that “The design is finished, and the first prototypes should be running very shortly.”

“It will cost roughly two thirds as much as a Phantom, or somewhere between £150,000 and £175,000.” He added “we’ll aim to produce around 800 of them a year. That should more than double our overall sales.”

The baby Roller is expected to share parts with the next generation BMW 7-Series and CS Concept, but Robertson insisted that the car “will be unmistakably a Rolls-Royce.”

The new model is expected to hit the motor shows in in 2009 before going on sale in early 2010.
