Just when you think you've seen it all, Rolls-Royce presents a new version of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan that exceeds all expectations and rules of good taste. Get ready for a ride that will divide opinion.
For a year 2025 Rolls-Royce it brings not only a fresh wind, but a real storm in the form of a renewed one Rolls-Royce Cullinan. This luxurious SUV, which at first glance looks more like a military vehicle from the Galactic Wars, has received criticism and praise in equal measure. It seems as if the designers at BMW have been browsing the French futuristic car catalogs in search of inspiration, forgetting the aesthetics that Rolls-Royce traditionally nurtures.
Looking at the front fascia, it seems as if the LED lights are randomly spread across the face of this car. The whole thing is reminiscent of the structure of metropolitan skyscrapers, which Cullinan may also want to imitate with his luminous mask. However, all these "innovations" do not contribute to a better appearance, but, if we are honest, only show it even more in all its controversy.
Despite all this, the Cullinan stays true to its 6.75-litre V12 beast under the hood, capable of an impressive 600bhp (447kW), and a 0-100km/h time of less than 5 seconds ensures your journey will be anything but boring. But it seems that the days of this twelve-cylinder are numbered, as Rolls-Royce announces the transition to a purely electric drive by 2030.
The interior remains a luxurious shelter from the outside world, dominated by hand-polished carbon inserts and leather that requires more than two million stitches. To sit in the Cullinan is to sit in the embrace of luxury, although it is hard to miss that certain elements are reminiscent of less prestigious models such as BMW X7.
Rolls-Royce has always prided itself on its uniqueness and prestige, but the latest iteration of the Cullinan shows that even in the world of luxury vehicles, there is a fine line between innovation and exaggeration. This is especially true when you try to get your product too close to designs that may be innovative but not necessarily beautiful. They say that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, and in this case, each beholder will have to judge for himself whether the changes are for the better or for the worse.
