Back in 2018, Rolls-Royce launched a revolutionary vehicle – the automaker’s first SUV, the Cullinan, in England.

We took a look at the flawless design of the luxury 4×4 that combines the ruggedness of an off-road vehicle with the elegance and class that you’ve come to expect from Rolls-Royce.

It apparently drives like a dream, too.

If you like the sound of all of this, and have more than R4,5 million to blow on a new car, then you’ll be happy to know that the Cullinan has finally arrived in South Africa.

Wheels24 has eight things you probably didn’t know about the new Cullinan:

1. It’s named after the largest diamond ever discovered which now resides in the British Crown Jewels.
2. It’s the second Rolls-Royce to sit on the all-new aluminium ‘Architecture of Luxury’.
3. The 6.75-litre twin-turbo V12 Rolls-Royce engine delivers 420kW/850Nm mated to all-new all-wheel drive.
4. Tested to destruction all over the planet, Cullinan is an incredibly capable off-roader that sees the development of the ‘Magic Carpet Ride’ for off-road enjoyment.
5. The first ‘three-box’ car in the SUV-sector. Cullinan’s rear partition wall creates a distinct environment for passengers, separated from the luggage compartment.
6. It’s an all-terrain high-bodied car for an “authentic, luxury off-road travel a reality for the first time” says Rolls-Royce.
7. Contemporary and functional design ensures Cullinan gains iconic status in the face “of increasingly bland SUV designs” says the automaker.
8. Cullinan offers a suite of Bespoke features developed specifically for the many various lifestyles of its owners including the Viewing Suite and the Recreation Module.
