Rolls Royce Cullinan

Rolls Royce Cullinan. The most capable ever created, Cullinan is a landmark exemplar of pinnacle motoring. Like its saloon sibling, the SUV, named appropriately after the world’s largest raw diamond, found in South Africa over a century ago and now part of the Crown Jewels, comes with an eye-watering starting price.

Cullinan is a full-capability off-roader “able to do whatever a Range Rover can do”. To stress Cullinan’s breadth of capability, the Goodwood company has artfully leaked a selection of impressive YouTube clips showing. Prototypes tackling rough roads and huge dunes everywhere” to describe its capability.

Cullinan is Rolls-Royce’s first SUV in 112 years. It is the company’s first-ever 4×4. Cullinan’s system is a latest-tech, electronically controlled, highly configurable permanent all-wheel drive set-up. This is only the second new Rolls to use the all-new, highly flexible “Architecture of Luxury” aluminium spaceframe introduced recently with the latest Phantom 8 limousine. This earmarked for every future luxury cars including the second-generation Ghost saloon, next to arrive after Cullinan.

A unique aluminium spaceframe underpins Cullinan, along with new Rolls-Royce chassis technology, to deliver the signature Rolls-Royce magic carpet ride. The driving experience is peerless, whatever the conditions, as you savour a luxury SUV journey of unparalleled comfort. In its current form, the Ghost saloon uses a BMW 7-series. Rolls bosses reckoned that was the best way to go. They have concluded that designing a versatile aluminium space that can support all designs. This is a far better way to meet Rolls-Royce’s uncompromising requirements. In Cullinan, body rigidity is a particular feature.

Interior

Cullinan’s interior is the usual paragon of Rolls quality and style. A hint of natural conservatism and an innate simplicity about the controls and instruments.
