Armored Rolls-Royce Cullinan

The Rolls-Royce Cullinan is definitely not a cheap SUV. However, those looking for a safer and more expensive version can contact Klassen for the armored Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

Klassen offers the CEN 1063 Level BR6 protection level for Cullinan including a unique folding system integrated into all door seals. The ceiling and floor were also reinforced to be able to withstand the simultaneous explosion of two DM51 hand grenades.

The luxury SUV also got multi-layer bulletproof glass, battery protection and an electronic control module. There are also reinforced suspension, reinforced door supports and other critical structural points, and a system that allows the vehicle to move even in the event of a tire puncture.

The interior contains exclusive high quality materials. Klassen offers customers a large selection of modifications while the exterior is mostly still true to the standard model. This is important so that the Cullinan does not attract unwanted attention, but this is difficult to do because it is a Rolls-Royce SUV.

The armored Cullinan is powered by a 6.75 liter V12 direct injection engine with 563 hp (414 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. It reaches 60 mph in 5 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (250 km / h).

Klassen’s armored Cullinan costs more than $ 950,000 (€ 830,000). That’s a lot of money, but you also get a lot, especially when it comes to high-level protection and security.

Rolls Royce Spectre EV

Rolls Royce has decided to stop the rumors and announce to the world that it is in the process of making its first electric coupe, the Spectre EV. This is a historic step forward for the company that announced the electric novelty earlier through the 102EX and 103EX concepts.

Interestingly, although it was announced Rolls Royce will not use the BMW platform, but its aluminum platform introduced in 2017. This platform has been used on Phantom models, Cullinan and Ghost.

Rolls Royce not only announced a new model, but also presented a camouflaged prototype as a big surprise. The shape and proportions themselves are very reminiscent of the Wraith, and are expected to have two doors, a low roofline and a long front cover.

“It’s not in any way the successor of the Wraith. It’s a different proposition for our clients. It will feel very different, it will look very different,” said Rolls-Royce CEO, Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes.

He added: “We will go from combustion engines straight into electric when we substitute certain positions in our portfolio, and that is the way forward,” he said.

Before production begins, the prototype will make at least 2.5 million kilometers in all possible conditions. This will simulate as much as 400 years of use.

The first deliveries will be in 2023, and the brand will be fully electric by 2030.

Rolls-Royce Down

The work of the famous Japanese architect Kengo Kuma was the inspiration for the design of the special Rolls-Royce Down model. Down was made for the owner of the Westbank company and was inspired by The Kita building in Tokyo designed by Kengo Kuma.

The intention of the designers was to connect the architecture and the world of luxury cars. That’s why Down is painted in Silver Haze, modeled on the materials used in the construction of the building, which reveal a bronze hue in daylight.

The interior of the Down used natural materials such as Selby gray leather with Arctic white and black details.

The owner wanted his unique car to be paired with a multi-level penthouse located at the top of The Kit building.
