Its very presence gave off a sense of weight and substance.
Yet the perfectly sculpted bulge on the hood and the sleek, rounded lines of its profile also created a sense of motion.
The visual impact was immense.
It was something the flat images on car websites simply couldn’t convey.
Compared to its siblings, the Gust and the Phantom, the Cullinan lacked such an overtly corporate feel.
Its overall design was low-key and restrained, yet it exuded a powerful, dignified, and elegant aura.
"This car is so magnificent!"
Pei Yinyin and Xu Ying couldn’t help but marvel as they scrutinized the top-of-the-line SUV.
Even though they knew nothing about cars, they could clearly sense its extraordinary presence.
Compared to the limited-edition BMW 7 Series they had arrived in, this Cullinan...
...completely blew the other car out of the water. There was no comparison.
"It is quite impressive."
Qi Sheng agreed, finding himself liking the Cullinan more and more the longer he looked at it.
"Manager Ren, could you please tell me about this red Cullinan?"
"Mr. Qi, the Cullinan is the very first SUV model Rolls-Royce has ever produced."
"It’s also the most luxurious SUV on the market today, with a curb weight of 2.75 tons."
"Although the Cullinan is a bit heavier than other vehicles in its class..."
"...it’s equipped with a 6.7-liter, 12-cylinder twin-turbo engine, boasting up to 571 horsepower."
"It can be serene or swift. Overtaking in daily traffic is not an issue."
"As for its slightly slower acceleration, I don’t believe that’s a factor Cullinan owners typically worry about."
"After all, what Cullinan owner doesn’t also have a sports car?"
Qi Sheng smiled at that.
It was just as Ren Feng said.
He wasn’t buying the Cullinan for its acceleration or raw performance.
He was purely after its sense of luxury.
When it came to performance, his Ferrari 488 would leave the Cullinan in the dust.
"This car also features a full-time all-wheel-drive system and an all-wheel steering system."
"It guarantees sufficient clearance and agility on any road surface."
"The adaptive air suspension ensures stability while driving."
"Whether for daily commuting or off-roading, this car can meet your every need!"
At this point, Ren Feng couldn’t help but joke, "Of course, I doubt anyone would actually take a Cullinan off-roading. That would be a bit of a sacrilege."
"After all, the cost of the options on a Cullinan is enough to buy a Mercedes G-Wagen."
"The G-Wagen is much better suited for off-roading. You wouldn’t feel as bad even if you broke it."
Qi Sheng quite agreed with Ren Feng’s point.
"That’s true. Even with the G-Wagen’s price hikes, you can get an entry-level model for under 2.5 million."
"But this Cullinan, with all the options and taxes, will cost nearly ten million by the time it’s on the road."
The Cullinan’s performance was certainly excellent.
But at the end of the day, it was still just an SUV, not a true off-roader.
Since he was choosing an SUV anyway, Qi Sheng wasn’t concerned with how strong its off-road capabilities were.
Qi Sheng looked at Ren Feng and said, "Manager Ren, I think I have a good enough handle on the performance. Please tell me about the interior and the options on this car."
"Of course, no problem."
"Mr. Qi, no amount of talk from me can compare to you experiencing it for yourself."
"Why don’t you have a seat inside, and I can walk you through the features?"
Ren Feng reached out, opened the car door, and gestured for Qi Sheng to get in.
"Alright, I’ll do that."
That was exactly what Qi Sheng wanted to do, and he slid neatly into the car.
Instead of getting in, Ren Feng stood by the open door and began explaining the car’s interior features.
"Mr. Qi, this is the five-seat version of the Cullinan. The optional front and rear seats are equipped with ventilation, heating, and massage functions..."
As the sales manager of this Rolls-Royce center,
Ren Feng knew exactly where the strengths of a Rolls-Royce lay.
The Cullinan was highly configured, but based on looks and performance alone...
...it didn’t have a significant advantage over other brands’ SUVs in the two-to-three-million-yuan range.
Much of the cost came down to the brand premium.
People who could truly afford a Rolls-Royce didn’t care about so-called ’value for money’.
