This appears to be one of the first photos of the highly-anticipated Rolls Royce Cullinan.The image appears to be from a private showing of the brand’s first crossover.

It appears the Cullinan will be unmistakably Rolls-Royce as it features a prominent grille and a familiar Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament. While the Phantom recently received a sleeker face as part of its redesign, it appears the Cullinan will stick with a more boxy design benefiting its status as a “high-riding vehicle.”

The front of the model has rectangular headlights and large air intakes with floating chrome accents. The lower front bumper is also unique to the Cullinan and it appears to have a chromed center section or a metallic skid plate.

The Cullinan has a pronounced hood like the rest of the Rolls-Royce lineup. We can also see the rear suicide doors are open.

The Rolls-Royce Cullinan will ride on the aluminum spaceframe platform and become the first Rolls-Royce vehicle to be offered with all-wheel drive.

Specifications remain unconfirmed but the model is expected to have a twin-turbo 6.75-liter V12 engine that produces 563 hp (420 kW / 570 PS) and 663 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque.

Do Luxury / Ultra Luxury SUV owners have a different taste? I can't digest the looks of any of the below creations.

1. Bentayga
2. X7
3. Urus
4. Maybach SUV Concept

Cullinan follows the family look but that front slab look has been there forever.

Rolls Royce teases a picture of the rotary knob on the central console. Note the Spirit of Ecstasy adorned on it.

These should look very different when you see, pictures don't do justice mostly for some reasons. I can say this from my own experience with Bentayga which appears most ugly of the lot but looks differently ( for good) when I saw in person.

+1 to that. I blame the massive consumer preference shift from sedans to SUVs for these creations though! You know how much the market is shifting when you see Lamborghini and Ferrari dishing out SUVs.

Flowing against the tide so far I think the Rolls Royce SUV looks neat and handsome in its own way. And it has road presence. And SUVs are here to stay. And if some dowager aunt were to gift me one I sure would not grumble.

I've seen the Bentayga and I didn't like it in person either. The Continental GT is a looker thou.

But they don't have to look bad right? SUVs like the RR Velar and Volvo X90 are gorgeous IMHO. Of course, they aren't half as expensive as the ones I've listed so I'm wondering why ultra-luxury SUVs look like this.

On a lighter side, is this Bolero inspired axle? Front broader compare to rear one!

Thanks,

I actually think the Cullinan looks the best among its peers. Also, having watched the way it was tested in the series of videos posted by Rolls Royce in association with National Geographic, it seems quite capable too, for the kind of use it may ever get subjected to.

Same opinion here. Looks royal and understated just how a Rolls Royce should be.

And no one will mistake it for anything other than a Rolls Royce.
