Rolls Royce Cullinan – Does this render reveal the car’s final design?

Rolls Royce is set to release the Cullinan, its first ever SUV, in 2018. 

Hot on the heels of the Phantom 2017 launch, the luxury car manufacturer looks to bring another new car to market next year. 

It is the first time the manufacturer is foraying into the SUV market. 

Rolls Royce, however, are unaccepting of the term SUV and prefer it to be described as a “high-sided vehicle”.

A number of spy shots have been captured of the new car as it is being tested on the roads. 

Now a rendering artist has given motorists their best look at the new Cullinan yet. 

Based on a spy shot captured of the car, artist Jan Peisert has filled in the blanks of the camouflage with elements of the new Phantom. 

While the final design may differ slightly when the final model is revealed it does give you the best look of the car so far. 

It retains the boxy and dominant design of Rolls Royces that have largely retained the same face for decades. 

When it goes on sale it will look to challenge the Bentley Bentayga at the top-end of the luxury SUV market. 

In the words of Rolls Royce, the Project Cullinan will be a “true Rolls Royce” and will be an “all-terrain high-sided vehicle”.

It will be built on its own platform which will then be used to create other Rolls Royce models from 2018. 

Cullinan will likely be powered by a version of the Phantom’s 6.8-litre V12 engine. 

It is rumoured to debut at the Geneva Motor Show 2018, although this has not been officially confirmed.
