RR is tired of Mansory ruining their designs, so they decided to just do it themselves.

You're absolutely right .

[@richardlabeja]

But yet their cars are selling in record numbers. So they must be doing something right.

[@mrsoisauce9017]

It's not destroyed. It's just really weird. But at least for this, there's an explanation behind the design as opposed to the usual "bad design for no reason"

[@amirsalarhemati9566]

Correct ✅

[@DodgerFloof]

you're crazy if you think this is "destroyed" it's really not that bad. the new 7 series on the other hand...

[@diemes5463]

The headlight just dropping into an empty space is so unsettling. A Rolls should be designed once and last forever, this is following design trends.

Citroen/DS designer has been hired by BMW, and its evident in the last 5 years. The old BMW designer has gone over to KIA, and has been working there since their badge has changed

[@RoyalKnightCurly]

The lower front bumper looks like the front end of the BMW M8. A clash of designs that honestly makes the Cullinan look cheap 😫😫

[@tubelisity]

Rolls Royce said the average age of their client base went from 56 to 43...I think that somewhat explains the sporty look

[@nathanielmoran8537]

Completely agree. That lower facia doesn’t tie in with anything. If they would have left the revisions to that upper portion it would have been stunning

[@arthurmorgan8467]

I like the rear end, and front end for the most part. The new DTR lights look great, but the droopy looking chin? Not so much. The old one feels much more classy though, so I would say overall the older one is nicer.

The lower vents don't match with the rest of the car's front styling. Too angular in my opinion. If the vents were straightened out it would look a whole lot better.

[@ANathan123]

I never liked the cullinan. I always thought it was ugly

[@nicholassmith7048]

Yep, always has been and is even more so now. Maybe RR wants "ugly" to be an inherent attribute of the Cullinan.

[@matthewpervere6965]

1:41 “Emulate the bow of a yacht” Where?

[@marciliojunior4919]

It's just designer gibberish, they create these excuses on the fly to justify their bad decisions

[@hiddenpandacapital6990]

A yacht thats about to run aground 😅 What were they thinking with the bottom part of the front of the vehicle, arghh, run away and buy a Nissan, a Peugeot, anything

[@rickybryan1759]

It looks like a grumpy Thomas the Tank Engine character

[@ResumedPausing]

5:44 Agreed, first thing I thought was Mansory

[@joaoalegrio6433]

The problem with mansory is not the design, it's the drawings, which they highlight with carbon or another color. take a mansory and configure it, they will be fine. for example, a LeMansory in all blue color instead of having carbon details

[@Eric_7007]

The previous Rolls-Royce also had digital gauges. They're just styled analogously.

[@AviweZathu]

😌 I love the design & RR adapts to attract more people, the car looks larger, taller and wider 🤔

[@izishillboldon6036]

This video hit everything right on the money. I prefer the older model too. Great presentation.

[@mads-emilbrnnum5034]

The gauges in the instrument cluster of the series 1 Cullinan are digital too, unfortunately. Though they looked more analog.

[@Moodamage]

That front end looks like they put the lower half of a BMW X5M Competition front end on it.

[@zwilliams331]

RR is now more about gimmicks. Next a starlight glove box.

[@jamesnardini]

I couldn’t agree with your assessment more! The Series 1 is a far cleaner and more elegant design. Good thing that a Provenance Rolls Royce is the best value in the Luxury market. 😊

[@ankitshelke8637]

RR should've kept the air intakes as it was or maybe made it slimmer. The newer air intakes looks totally out of place. Rest of the updates feel pretty flawless.

[@blackcow8114]

I once thought the urus redesign was bad. But after I watched this...

[@seansiew5629]

Cybertruck is next level of ugly

[@B4R0N.]

I personally like it. Especially in black badge trim. Though I am not a fan of chrome deletes/black trim, I like the difference in the lower bumper with the slats oriented in the opposite way to the non black badge one.

[@composimple364]

11:16, that's just the Black Badge version. The regular version won't look as sporty

[@composimple364]

Also, 12:02 in the original cullinan, those are also digital.

The lower bumper is an utter travesty and an absolute insult to Rolls Royce’s heritage. It’s unforgivable.

[@jeffreyjones3616]

Over stylized down there... terribly and has no continuity with the rest. I dig the new headlamps... and the negative space below the headlights shocked me for a second but I like it... but that lower bumper 😢😢 rated two sad faces

[@abstractobject5337]

I've been watching you long enough that I feel I know your taste in design..... I knew you were going to go crazy on this one as soon as I saw the news release earlier today 😂

[@sanchezking6188]

The Cullinan was never a looker, but at least it stuck to most of the basic RR design principles. But obviously BMW has bought RR a couple of decades ago, so this had to happen at some point.

[@tudorbudaca9185]

That interior screams MUSTANG 2009-14 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@hardikshrestha3439]

Thanks man for talking about this, literally now i feel satisfied form the bottom of my heart

[@nocturnallips]

Im not gonna lie, those inverted l.e.d's by the headlights let the car look sad. Almost like a rinkled face grumpy person. Pretty sure at night its going to be beautiful but apart from that its a decent update.

[@Kzninja2]

i like the new headlight, its a prminent feature for them maybe going away from grill deisng, but the sporty air vents look horrendous, the old ones were much better

[@dtk3493]

I love the L shaped headlights and the air intakes. It’s an all around upgrade in my opinion!

[@ivannyeah]

the pre facelift cullinan also had digital guages. they werent very configurable and had the bmw "idrive 6" design with the fixed rings around them.

[@LambertxMc]

It looks like it puffed up and covered some of its features. The lights look so tiny.

[@TheAzeez]

I agree on the exterior part and I too said looks like Mansoory were involved lol. But for the interior you’re comparing the black badge to a regular Cullinan. The Black Badge is the sport version so the interior is done with carbon fiber and sporty colors.

[@dmitry2007qqq]

Front LED strip is fantastic you say? No, it's ugly because it looks like the car is crying while trying to keep a serious face, reminds of Droopy the dog.

[@ml9867]

I'm shocked that there is no EWB Cullinan. Especially with Bentley, Land Rover, Lincoln, Cadillac, and even Jeep offering longer models that cost over $100,000.

[@ekstasiqX]

I like the lights

[@zahirdhunjibhoy79]

Totally agree with you buddy they can’t make an RR look like something from fast and the furious

[@grilledme]

had they keep the old front bumper

[@amzab123]

I was in the middle of typing that I thought this looked like a Mansory kit when you said it yourself. I wonder if Rolls is down on sales and is looking to do what BMW is doing with their designs

[@Al_Pantalone]

I feel like all they had to do was make the grille bigger on the last model. Now they have much more that needs improvement. Plus the more digital you go, the faster your car gets dated, which should not be a thing with RR. But hey, they don't ask opinions from those who can't afford to buy them, and those who do aren't typically known for their good taste

[@danhvoduc5938]

I am honestly impressed by your a precise comment “roll Royce should be classic and luxurious not sport luxurious,

[@jonfarah8529]

My 2 cents off of my head is that Rolls Royce is realizing their clients are the younger and with flashy bad taste, and not as much Senior customers. That interior color option screams alpha e-commerce bro

[@etcarief]

I wanna ask whoever designed the front fascia ; Why ?

[@muneeralqassim2467]

I found it veeeeeery atrracted than the old one ..soo modern ..

[@steeven23]

I prefer the previous one

[@DioTheGreatOne]

Rolls Royce goes full Mansory

[@steved2008]

I think it is very colour dependent, I like it, it’s growing on me

[@mramaretto114]

Looks better than the old design

[@theKlassiqueOne]

I think RR realise that with this model in particular, their client segment has buying power(often new money) but a different understanding of good taste/class. Think Richard Mille wearers.

[@juliocesaraldanaavila7039]

we need the technology of the new in the old design, the best combination

[@entertainingandfun2719]

Feels like something a wealthy archeologist would drive to me. I don’t know why, but that’s the emotional I get. Indians jones sorta vibe. Luxuriously rugged. Warm confident face. I like it! And I’m usually pretty conservative when it comes to design. I personally think rolls Roy’s faces are kinda stale though the proportions are solid. This one feels more emotional to me.

[@danielrogers4072]

Why does this 2025 RR have a key lock on the door?

[@mpsakshaypradhan8499]

To be honest . I too didn't like the lower half of the front fascia .

[@obegeorge]

one thing i'v known over time with cars especially with RR and Mercedes, its that the new design grows on you.

[@seansiew5629]

Well for me as BMW guy who also likes Benz, I think the only design that grew on me is the new E class overall, the rest of Mercedes design? Boring

[@bernardlloyd2000]

How is the rear already aging as badly as first gen Cayenne Turbo 😂

[@Paradoxical124]

The top half is beautiful but I’m not too sure about the other half.

Somebody PUNCHED ROLLS ROYCE in the EYES!!👀 PUFFY THIN HEADLIGHTS 😳

[@randello_5010]

As a fan of the brand, I'm pretty confused by the exterior design choises aswell (front ligths apart). I quite like the evolution of the interior instead: keeping in mind the different target between standard and black badge the only thing too much "in your face" is the checkered and knotted pattern on the seats, too Gucci in my opinion

[@6lack5ushi]

so glad someone said it, step down front facia

[@swappycars]

rolls royce knows their new audience: rich rappers and youtubers who would love these weird designs and bright interiors

[@longli433]

These running lights look like extensive white eyebrows of an old Kong Fu master from old Chinese martial arts movies. That’s just how I see them

[@-SP.]

I disagree, this new facelift looks better. Meanwhile Lamborghini dropped the ball with the Urus SE

[@bradleyjohnson6107]

This is a classic case of if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. No update was needed. This is a huge step down.

[@ertugrulbae46]

Introducing: The Rolls Royce Culinan with a Lambo Gallardo front bumper No idea why they decided to put curvey styling hues on what is otherwise a flat linear blocky design

[@MeRacko]

i don't know what people have against Mensory i think their designs, body kit and lather interiors are amazing in 95% of cases

[@dash-ryan]

Those front led's look like a handle-bar moustache. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

[@louishutchinson7513]

You’re compared the old standard cullinan to the new black badge, so it’s not really fair to say they’ve gone for a more sporty look overall 🤷‍♂️

[@beatpole76]

in white: Stormtrooper 😀

[@knottzdfwy5779]

RR did say that the average age of RR buyers have dropped. I think that’s why they have gone for the more sporty styling cues. This facelift did throw me off a bit but personally I still think it’s a good looking car!

[@bernardlloyd2000]

Not a single angle where it looks any better than the old one in my opinion. Despite what a lot of people say I always liked the first gen (I hate SUVs but for rolls Royce it just makes sense)

[@terrencebiggane8648]

A perfect example of yet another good original design that they failed to improve upon with a restyle.

[@HIMANSHUJAYAN]

I am pretty sure a BMW Designer was also designing it with the Rolls Royce one 😂

[@lefty1999]

The old ones are NOT analog gauges ... they just have a frame around the digital display

[@mikalaybourn]

The only thing I actually like about the new design is the headlights. Everything else is horrible. The front bumper, the rear bumper, the interior colors, etc. I will however point out that the old model actually had half-digitalized gauges too. They did feature a round display but with physical analogue gauge cluster needles. However, even though it was half-digitalized, it felt analogue, and I'd rather have the old gauge design than a fully digitalized gauge cluster.

[@TODDesigner]

This design is the fourth horseman of the apocalypse.

[@danieljordan5572]

The bottom of the front bumper looks more like an iX then Rolls Royce

[@hectorraphunga8285]

I would’ve given it the current Ghost front bumper

[@erikh1041]

I honestly like it, but idk why they thought that bumper design up front made sense. It doesn’t match any other shapes on the car
