Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II - Review
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Cullinan received its mid-cycle facelift earlier this month and now it’s making its first public appearance. We shot the ultra-premium SUV this weekend in Italy at the 2024 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. The world’s fanciest luxobarge shows its striking front fascia in live images from Lake Como.
Anders Warming, Head of Rolls-Royce design, joins us to explain the design changes, both inside and out. In this video, we learn why Rolls-Royce wanted to change the front-end of the car and why the interior is a bit more digital now.

Considering RR may have some of the best designers in the world they certainly had an off day regarding front design, I would have thought looking at the new Spector front grill more width than height this would have made a vast improvement…. Still looks like the very most expensive London CAB.

So rare to see two people having different opinions but agreeing with each other. Respect to you both.
Not sold on the front or the rear. Those DRL’s just cheapen the look, and I’m sure that lower section comes from the iX. The rear looks so bulky now. I hope this doesn’t trickle out to the other RR products. I still think the Ghost is their best looking and best proportioned car.

@@jonnyrondo507 ok, so critique the design of the first generation. THAT was ugly. From the front, just badly proportioned, frumpy, totally uninspired. RR made the mistake of thinking they could graft on the family face as though it was any other saloon, forgetting that an SUV has different proportions and therefore different design treatment. That is why he talks about “verticality” with the Series II. It isn’t just marketing. It’s a reflection of the fact that the proportions are taller and so the styling treatment needed to be changed.
those lower black intakes make it look cheap, looks like a mansory bodykit

All I can advise to Rolls Royce is in Cullinan 2 version add at the front the entertainment screen . You know where to put that screen? At the front the two sun protection flops at the sealing where is the mirror, from the passenger side you make two different layers, one you open is a sun protection flop , the second one you put down is a digital screen for people to watch movies , news , tv .
I hated the last one, this one looks better especially from the front, wish I could afford it 😅

What a wonderful new design, but the wheels - why are the RR wheels so ugly?
This is my point of view only…Let’s start from the good points 1) Great Rims 2) Nice interior 3) Spirit of Ecstasy is always nice. Now the BAD…Everything else especially the front end. OMG I think your designers were sick with the mumps at the time of design.

I understand what he means with the wake of water in forward travel. When the spirit of ecstacy is deployed... The uplifted wings of the spirit of ecstasy are in fine tune of vertical movement with the grille
Is RR Cullinan starting to look like a small baby BMW X7 by design,interior engine and parts as well.
The front design is really disharmonious , you have a very slim front light housing and slim DRL's also a shrunkened gril then suddenly you get those very big air intakes and to increase distraction they are flowing at different angles.
I don’t like the front end changes
Love
I love it To be honest....if I had the money, I would buy one
It actually looks good
Looks MUCH better in the full flesh.

Spectre costs $1.4million roughly in Australia, that is about the price of a decent home. I am scared to see how they price the new Cullinan II here.

Don't live in fear. It costs enough to buy half the neighborhood. Now you know.
That is NOT a "Pantheon" grille, but rather, a Parthenon grille. The Parthenon is in Greece. The Pantheon is in Rome, something completely different. Rolls-Royce have Parthenon grilles.
I Like it. Better than the first one.
to me, the phantom is the real SUV because it is so tall, whereas the Cullinan is a hatchback which trunk space is limited.
The clock now is on the passenger side 😂
Did I miss the backseat passenger area review?😂😂
Wheels and grill from the specta
I hope they come out with the electric version of the cullinan⚡⚡⚡
The dude showing us around the car is dressed like Dick Tracy. Love it!
WTH was RR thinking?!🫢
4:04 lol 😂
I do like the headlights and everything else on the front apart of the lower part of the bumper, those air vents ( grills) look too aggressive . Hope that Rolls Royce is not trying to please only the Chinese like BMW does unfortunately, I mean BMW , Rolls Royce you know what I mean if you know about this two brands. Rear end bumper looks nice but again the exhaust tips are not my favourite but either way is a wonderful vehicle and unbeatable from my perspective. BTW I do love the changes at the interior . And hopefully one day not too far in the future a dream brought to reality and don’t forget people that is good to dream , motivates us to keep going for the big returns.
Not feeling the rear, it looks bentayga-ish

Rolls royce lost it talking about sit patterns. The guy look tensed as soon as asked any new update at the back.
в принципе вариантов освежить дизайн было не много и им точно удалось успешно это сделать. абсолютно точно дизайн стал более современным и в то же время не менее красивым
❤❤❤❤❤
They built up a story to make up an awful frontend lower section. You must admit it. It not looks that good under RR brand name
Unfortunately, those complaining about the looks are not the ones with the money to buy one. Those with the money trust me they will buy it. Rolls Royce has a status, and the rich would associate with that status. For me, it looks nice.
Are they also going to slant the pantheon grilles in Series III? God...
I don’t like that front big sensor it makes the car not look good.
I would have put a passenger display on the dash going all the way across.
si no es porque uno sabe que es un RR diria que es una camioneta de luja del mercado chino.
per farla cool avrebbero dovuto rifarla ma sarebbe costato troppo..
Presumably when you spec your own motor car, you can ask for it without that ugly 'Airbag warning' label on the passenger's sun visor. Always looks so out of place on such a luxury vehicle!
Why is it crying? 😭
I own the old Cullinan and I would never change it for this one... The front kills it completely, looks like some Asian car to be exact
Благодарю
0:27 “Cullinan was..” isn’t it “The Cullinan was..” please clear this up for me, is this just over stylisation of language and grammatically incorrect? It’s not just on top brands these days, could anybody tell me if this is grammatically correct? But, of course, beautiful car and two very well dressed chaps in a glorious setting, if I have to address it as ‘Cullinan’ in order to get an invite, I could probably be persuaded to temporarily suspend my pretentiousness grammar detector police force for a short period.. 😅 thank you for the video 😊
Those slanted “wake” sections look awful. Ruins the stately front of the car.
digital gauge and slanted lines in headlight to bumper😢 i admired the timeless design especially knowing they are preserving those classic luxury like the AC switch, btw i don't really care i know i cannot purchase this kind of vehicle, actually i can it's just taxes for this kind of vehicle in our country is nuts!
Front is not that bad honestly
99.99% commenter will never touch a rolls.
The emperor has no clothes...
all deez rich ninjas gonna be roling in dis soon
It got a common "Rear Vision Mirror" just like the Austins out of the fifties... And I ask..when does gray and ochre match? It looks like dogs vomit..
No Pantheon in Greece. Parthenon
Is it me that they look like brothers or even twins??
Hình như có vẻ dài hơn thì phải!
When are they going to cover the plastic steering column & maje the stalks more substantial looks terrible, if they don't know how take a look at any Bentley they can manage it and they don't have quite the exorbitant price tag as RRs 🤪
BMW design philosophy. Not nook good!
Weird Curve 😂
Rolls Royce know how to tell a story. As a designer myself they are heading in the right direction. Although the front end is polarizing people will grown to love it.
The new front is a complete failure. RR stands for outstanding aesthetics and elegance. What they have done here is a misstep between a Peugeot 3008 and a wannabe Lambo Urus, by adding silly LED-light-bars and sporty-looking bumper air-intakes. The car looks over-designed and has lost its purity. It is now trying to be a muscle car? Owner BMW is obviously not only ruining its own car design. The main target market seems to be in the Middle East or Asia, as Europe.
This is the ugliest car RR has ever made....
No amount of eloquent english wax can story away a bad and a non cohesive design and those wheel size downright takes the ride quality back to ancient athens chariot times.. something seriously is wrong with styling and design studios of the manufacturers of late.
To say it was hard to get the lighting under the spirit inside the car was bull**it. It would take an hour to move a light around to find the best direction. The things car makers say to make their car sound great is rubbish. I love the Cullinan. But stop the bull.
U both look like father & son!
Some colors and options should really not be available😮
3.51 "everything is real material" ......yeah but no but...............would not have it given !!
Well at least it doesn't have the ugly split headlights everyone is crazy about😅
For me, the Century Suv....Japanese perfection, half tge price, far better quality and looks.
Anyone who likes the front works for Rolls Royce or BMW
