Yes, there will be a coupe version of Corniche. Named Camargue most possibly. It will be a Corniche with a permanent hard top - as seen on 101EX Concept.
"Camargue" is getting a green light because of one market specifically in mind: Russia. Russian tycoons were very interested in 100EX Concept but expressed concern about canvas roof - not only because of the Russian extreme winter weather, but because of a safety concerns too. So they will get the same car witha a hard top. And with a different name.
But RR officials were a bit surprised when a lot of potential customers from Middle East showed a lot of interest in the 101EX concept. Especially the sheiks liked the LED "stars" in the roof. More interesents - even better.
So, expect "Camargue" about a year after the Corniche.
