A Rolls-Royce SUV is the wet dream of every rich forester. Unfortunately for those who have patience, the car now has no priority.

That told Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös. The brand is currently very satisfied with the sales figures of the current range. The Wraith is until June even sold out, and in the Goodwood factory in England, they run against the production capacity.

For an SUV would be at least 2,000 addition per year. Unfortunately, the retailer will extend the possibilities of the factory small. The brand are currently viewing the options, but out of tradition, there is no solution in alternative factories.

The CEO says that BMW’s premium brand is not yet building a concept. There is no hurry, and the management of doubt currently on the Rolls-Royce dignity of an SUV. Yet Rolls-Royce is not to wait long time, Bentley has already confirmed in 2016 with an SUV. Maybe an extended chassis of the new BMW X5 a great start for a über-mud-Rolls? (via autocar.com)
