The luxury SUV Cullinan from Rolls-Royce will soon be available in a Black Badge version. The “black” Cullinan is scheduled to come onto the market as early as next year.
[dropcap size=big]600[/dropcap]The Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge comes with a number of design and performance changes that set it apart from the standard model. For one, the power increases by 29 hp over the base Cullinan. Its 6,75-liter V12 turbo engine then delivers a total of 600 hp with 900 Nm of torque.
With this performance, the “King of the Night” sprints to 4,9 km/h in 100 seconds. At 250 km/h, however, the propulsion stops. A customized eight-speed gearbox in the Badge shifts more aggressively than the original.
The Spirit of Ecstasy is now also wearing black
As you know, black means black. And that's what he looks like. Darkened chrome surfaces on the radiator grille frame, dark exhaust pipes and trim parts on the rear and the side surfaces of the Cullinan are now available in the noble black version.
And the black shines. It is said that every paint finish is polished by hand for up to five hours in order to create an extremely high gloss.
And also the Spirit of Ecstasy will be recolored. But not just with a black color. The radiator mascot gets its black touch with the help of a chemical process.

Even the tire dimensions continue to grow. Of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge is equipped with 22-inch wheels. There are also red brake calipers. According to Rolls-Royce, every fifth vehicle is now a Black Badge variant. Younger buyers in particular are more inclined towards the black version of a Rolls-Royce.
Shooting stars in the interior

Redesigned carbon fiber elements offset with aluminum mesh now display a 3D geometric pattern. Black in combination with colored accents should update the interior.
