Rolls-Royce Cullinan

While the Cullinan retains the traditional way of laying out the interior cabin, it has got much more contemporary and unique features over its other siblings, which again make it the most desirable vehicle apart from its imposing exterior stance.

As expected, the cabin of the Rolls Royce Cullinan is wrapped in exquisite leather, wood and metal inserts, making it an ultra-posh place to be in. The three-spoke multi-functional steering wheel as well as analog instrument console look old school, and so is the dashboard layout, but this retro appeal is what gives the Cullinan such high desirability.

The centre console is wide and stretched downwards, housing the touchscreen infotainment system at the top and AC louvers and various controls for audio system, four-zone automatic climate control, transmission and drive modes.  The cabin has the seating capacity of four people with an immense amount of comfort and convenience features as well as space on offer, which is given considering the huge size and price of the vehicle.

The Rolls Royce Cullinan has got all the ingredients at a place to be billed as the most exclusive SUV of the modern world. While it was the first-ever attempt from Rolls Royce in designing an SUV, the carmaker has done the job very well by blending in the traditional design ethos of Rolls-Royce with modern elements in Cullinan.

The huge and wide front fascia of the Rolls Royce Cullinan has got the same good old big rectangular front grille with vertical chrome slats and tapered chrome garnish above it. The rectangular grille with rounded edges has got full LED treatment, and the hood has hot prominent bulge flowing all the way to the windscreen.

The side profile of the Rolls Royce Cullinan looks huge, and is at the best from this very angle only. The rounded wheel arches and heightened stance do give it a traditional SUV stance, with the large 22-inch wheels and fairly sized window panels accentuating its large size even more.

Like any other of its offerings, the Rolls Royce Cullinan has got a simply styled rear profile which gets a huge windscreen which is sharply raked in an angular manner, with small and rounded rectangular LED tail lamps placed in vertical manner.

The big and bulky Rolls Royce Cullinan has a double-wishbone at the front and five-link axle at the rear, which along with self-leveling air suspension, electrically actuated active anti-roll bars and electronically controlled dampers at both front and rear give a magic carpet-like ride experience. While the four-wheel steering system do enhance the manoeuvrability at lower speeds a bit, the huge size still can make it cumbersome to drive for new drivers.

Powering the Rolls Royce is a state-of-the-art 6.75-litre twin-turbocharged petrol engine, which is one of the biggest, most powerful and most refined engines among all the SUVs. The engine is coupled to an 8-speed automatic gearbox and belts out a maximum power output of 571 PS, whereas the peak torque output is rated at 850 Nm. The too speed of the Rolls Royce Cullinan is limited to 250 kmph.

With standard safety features like front, side, curtain, overhead and knee airbags, ABS with EBD and brake assist, electronic stability control, traction control, assist emergency system, forward collision warning, front and rear parking sensors, 360-degree camera, lane departure warning, night vision, tire pressure monitoring system and many more, the Rolls Royce Cullinan has got all the safety of yours in its trustable hands.

The Rolls Royce Cullinan is an epitome in luxury SUVs and there are strong points to prove it. With a humongous and intimidating yet classy road presence, the ever impeccable luxurious appeal on the inside, the sorted suspension setup and the ohh-so-smooth performance from the V12, along with a raised stance, make the Rolls Royce Cullinan a priced possession.
