Here's Your First Look At The Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV
Following Bentley and its Bentayga, Rolls-Royce is the latest uber-luxury brand to step into the SUV fray. It’s doing so with this car, revealed in test mule form today and given the name ‘Project Cullinan’.
It’s unclear if ‘Cullinan’ - which we’re assuming refers to the Cullinan diamond - will be used for the production car, but it’s certainly a much more appealing name than Bentayga.
It’ll be the first time Rolls-Royce has ever produced an all-wheel drive car, and its all-new aluminium architecture will be used for all of the company’s models from 2018 onwards.
Other than that, we know nothing. But expect a very high asking price, hilariously expensive options and a gigantic V12 under the bonnet.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Great another suv thats highly expensive and probably no off road capabilities
STOP THESE SUV THINGS! GARRRRRRHHH! THE IMAGE OF BRANDS GETS RUINED JUST TO GAIN QUICK MONEY, THERE ARE AROUND THREE BILLION DIFFERENT MODELS AND THEY ARE NOT ECONOMICAL! NO ONE WILL TAKE THEM OFF ROAD! YOU DON’T LIVE IN MOHAVE DESERT OR IN THE JUNGLE! AND ON THE ROAD IT’S COMPLETELY DUMB TO HAVE ONE PERSON SITTING IN A 2.5 TONNES CAR! WHAT ON EARTH IS WRONG WITH THE WORLD? JUST GO BUY A POLO! OR A SMART! OR IF YOU WANT TO MAKE YOUR NEIGHBORS JEALOUS GET YOURSELF AN ASTON CYGNET! SERIOUSLY!
Not every SUV needs off-road capabilities? All a Rolls Royce needs to do is be very large, comfortable and luxurious. An SUV would be perfect
Aston is going to make one aswell. But think of it as a fund raiser for more super GTs
But one that’s extremely luxurious
What do people have against the Bentayga, by no means is it the world’s most beautiful car, but it still looks beautiful nonetheless. And I really like the name Bentayga, it’s a fitting name for a beautiful car.
The fact that it is too much money for a Toureq
Can i ask what Bentayga means?
That looks awesome
A landhouse on wheels
A Rolls Royce SUV is like the queen dressed up like 50cent
I believe the name Cullinan for the SUV has been known for about a year…
This is gonna be a CULT classic.
‘Mexicanicos’ a tv show in Mexico produced/filmed by Discovery Latin America did it first…
Based on a Chevrolet Suburban
I cant even..
When you have to address the country at 4 but your kid’ s soccer practice ends at 4:30
Guys, this is nothing new. Rolls-Royce has done a similar car way back in 1920 already.
