Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV

Say hello to the new Rolls-Royce Cullinan super-luxury SUV!

Rolls-Royce has finally whipped the covers off its long-awaited and often-teased Cullinan SUV, promising that the newcomer will bring “ultimate luxury” to the segment.

The Cullinan is powered by a 6,75-litre twin-turbo V12 delivering 420 kW and 850 N.m to all four wheels, with top speed limited to 250 km/h (interestingly, Rolls-Royce has opted not to list a 0-100 km/h figure). The 2660 kg Cullinan furthermore boasts an all-wheel steering system as standard.

The new model measures 5 341 mm long, 2 164 mm wide and 1 835 mm high, with a wheelbase of 3 295 mm. Rolls-Royce says the luggage compartment can swallow some 526 litres of cargo.

Rolls-Royce Cullinan

When Rolls-Royce announced in 2015 that it would launch Cullinan, it did so in the knowledge that its customers around the world had asked it to build "The Rolls-Royce of SUVs", with luxury, performance and usability not seen before in the SUV market. Many of these customers were younger, very successful high-net-worth individuals who are heavily engaged in the experience economy, and wanted a Rolls-Royce that would take them to the ends of the Earth in ultimate luxury.

Automotive mobility has always been a fast moving and dynamic business, with new concepts - such as SUVs - appearing with great regularity. But those new concepts need to be perfected in order to be adopted by those customers who will accept no compromise - the patrons of true luxury. Hence the Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

"History set our precedent, and today Rolls-Royce answers its call to action," comments Müller-Ötvös. "Our answer to the visionaries, adventurers, explorers and those who believe in the supremacy of liberty is the Rolls-Royce Cullinan."

What is Cullinan?

The Rolls-Royce Cullinan is Rolls-Royce as it's never seen before. When Sir Henry Royce said, "Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it", he could have had Cullinan in mind.

"We knew we had to offer our clients what they couldn't find in the SUV market," continues Müller-Ötvös. "They do not accept limitations or compromises in their lives. They are the new pioneers, and for them it's about their sense of adventure and daring in how they live their experiences. This approach to life demands a motor car that can go-anywhere in ultimate luxury and style - Rolls-Royce style. Hence Cullinan."

The only criticism I really have is that the front daytime lights would look better with the full wrap around like on the new Phantom. The half job definitely doesn't look as cool.
