Rolls-Royce

Rolls-Royce telah memperkenalkan Cullinan Series II, berdasarkan kejayaan pendahulunya sejak penampilan sulungnya pada 2018. Walaupun Cullinan telah diiktiraf untuk kehebatan luar jalannya, versi Siri II bertujuan untuk menarik penonton yang lebih ‘urban‘ dengan menggabungkan elemen teknologi memandu sendiri dan menarik kepada demografi yang lebih muda.

Reka bentuk luaran Cullinan Series II mempamerkan rupa urban kontemporari, menampilkan garisan bersih dan pendirian tinggi. Bahagian hadapan menggunakan reka bentuk lampu segar dengan lampu nyalaan siang hari yang menonjol yang diinspirasikan oleh bangunan pencakar langit bandar. Gril pantheon bercahaya yang menarik, yang pertama untuk Cullinan, menambah kehadirannya di jalan raya.

Pada bahagian sisi, perubahan kecil seperti barisan ciri baharu daripada lampu belakang ke roda belakang menyuntik deria pergerakan, manakala roda 23 inci yang lebih besar meningkatkan profile SUV. Pilihan cat baharu yang dipanggil Emperador Truffle yang diinspirasikan daripada marmar coklat, menambah sentuhan moden pada bahagian luar.

Di dalam, Cullinan Series II menawarkan panel kaca tiang ke tiang yang menempatkan paparan digital dan teknologi canggih yang dikuasakan oleh sistem pengendalian SPIRIT. Ciri ketersambungan yang dipertingkatkan termasuk aplikasi Whispers untuk pengurusan kenderaan jauh dan hiburan tempat duduk belakang dengan keupayaan penstriman. Selain itu, gandingan fon kepala Bluetooth diperkenalkan untuk sistem hiburan tempat duduk belakang.

Bagi mereka yang inginkan tafsiran yang lebih dinamik, Black Badge Cullinan Series II boleh didapati semasa pelancaran. Ia mempamerkan rawatan bahagian hadapan yang berbeza dengan gril gelap dan elemen luaran yang gelap. Di dalam, varian ia mengekalkan suasana gelap dengan kemasan logam istimewa dan Kabinet Jam unik yang menampilkan patung Spirit of Ecstasy yang diterangi.

Kuasa yang menjana kedua-dua Cullinan standard dan Black Badge Cullinan Series II ialah enjin 6.75 liter V12 pengecas twin-turbo yang menghasilkan 600PS dan tork 900Nm. Walau bagaimanapun, Rolls-Royce telah memberi isyarat peralihan ke arah kuasa elektrik menjelang 2030, menunjukkan bahawa masa enjin V12 akan berakhir.

Series Cullinan II menandakan evolusi ketara SUV mewah ikonik, menggabungkan reka bentuk moden, teknologi canggih, dan prestasi tanpa kompromi.

Rolls-Royce has unveiled the Cullinan Series II, building on the success of its predecessor since its initial launch in 2018. While the Cullinan has been known for its off-road capabilities, the Series II iteration aims to cater to an increasingly urban demographic, incorporating elements of self-driving technology and appealing to a younger clientele.

The exterior design of the Cullinan Series II reflects a modern urban aesthetic, with a focus on clean lines and verticality. The front features a new lamp treatment, emphasising tall daytime running light graphics inspired by illuminated skyscrapers. The illuminated pantheon grille, a first for the Cullinan, adds to its commanding presence on the road.

In profile, the Series II boasts subtle changes to the surfacing, including a new feature line leading from the taillight to the rear wheel, creating a sense of movement. The addition of upsized 23-inch wheels further enhances the SUV’s stance.

A new paint finish called Emperador Truffle, inspired by brown marble, adds a contemporary touch to the exterior.

Inside, the Cullinan Series II features a pillar-to-pillar glass-panel fascia in the upper portion of the dashboard, housing digital displays and incorporating advanced technology like the SPIRIT operating system.

Connectivity has been enhanced throughout the vehicle, with features such as the Whispers app for remote vehicle management and rear seat infotainment with streaming capabilities. Additionally, the Cullinan Series II introduces Bluetooth headphone pairing for the rear seat entertainment system.

For those seeking a more dynamic interpretation of the Cullinan, the Black Badge Cullinan Series II is available at launch. It features a distinct front-end treatment with a darkened grille and blacked-out exterior elements. The interior of the Black Badge variant maintains the dark ambience, with darkened metal finishes and a unique Clock Cabinet featuring an up-lit Spirit of Ecstasy figurine.

Under the hood, both the standard Cullinan and Black Badge Cullinan Series II are powered by the same twin-turbocharged 6.75-litre V12 engine, delivering 600PS and 900Nm of torque. However, Rolls-Royce has indicated that the days of the V12 engine are numbered, with a commitment to transitioning to electric power by 2030.

The Cullinan Series II represents a bold evolution of the iconic luxury SUV, combining modern design, advanced technology, and uncompromising performance.

Rolls-Royce Droptail Arcadia adalah roadster mewah terbaru yang direka untuk mereka yang mempunyai citarasa yang eksklusif.

Elemen karbon-fiber dalam warna perak menambah pesonanya, manakala panel berpilin kayu di dek lid belakang memberikan keanggunan yang abadi. Lebih 8,000 jam telah didedikasikan untuk menghasilkan pelbagai elemen kayu.

Ia dibuat untuk boleh memandu di mana-mana negara, dan ia merupakan contoh yang bagus tentang cara Rolls-Royce sentiasa berusaha keras untuk membuat apa yang pelanggan mahukan, tidak kira ke mana sahaja mereka pergi.

Introducing the Rolls-Royce Droptail Arcadia, the latest addition to the esteemed lineage of bespoke roadsters. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this extraordinary car represents the pinnacle of luxury and exclusivity, reserved for only the most discerning clientele.

Named after the idyllic paradise of Greek mythology, the Droptail Arcadia embodies the essence of heavenly luxury. Commissioned as a serene retreat for its owner, this opulent roadster offers a sanctuary of relaxation amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Distinguished by its unique white exterior, the Droptail Arcadia features a special paint formulation that incorporates aluminium and glass particles, lending a mesmerising shimmer to the body under the light. Unlike its predecessors, this bespoke commission sees the exposed carbon-fibre elements elegantly finished in a custom silver hue, adding to its allure.

Inside the cabin, the Droptail Arcadia exudes luxury and sophistication at every turn. The predominant white theme, inspired by the exterior colour, creates an atmosphere of purity and refinement. Contrasting tan accents adorn the seats’ outer portions and headrests, adding warmth to the pristine interior. Exquisite wood trim envelops the cabin, adorning the dashboard, door panels, and curved section behind the seats, showcasing the masterful craftsmanship of Rolls-Royce artisans. Remarkably, over 8,000 hours were dedicated to crafting the various wooden elements, attesting to the brand’s unwavering commitment to perfection.

One of the most captivating features of the Droptail Arcadia is the intricately designed dashboard clock, which took over two years to develop and five months to assemble. With 119 facets on its machined face and a double R logo crafted from billet stainless steel, this exquisite timepiece is a testament to Rolls-Royce’s dedication to luxury craftsmanship. Each hour marker is meticulously hand-painted, requiring the precision of a magnifying camera for application.

The Droptail Arcadia is propelled by the brand’s renowned twin-turbocharged 6.6-litre V12 engine, delivering effortless performance with 593hp and 840Nm of torque.

In 2021, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars made a game-changing announcement. They revealed their dedication to electric technology by introducing Spectre, an all-electric car set for its first customer deliveries in late 2023. Moreover, Rolls-Royce committed to having their entire lineup go fully electric by the end of 2030, marking a historic shift in the brand’s direction.

Now, the much anticipated Rolls-Royce Spectre has made its grand entrance into the Malaysian market.  Mr. Muller-Otvos, the CEO of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars said they chose the name ‘Spectre’ from the start because it aligns with Rolls-Royce’s legacy of innovation, perfection, and a touch of mystery. The car they’re presenting embodies these qualities, making ‘Spectre’ a fitting name.

In 2003, Rolls-Royce introduced the Phantom, marking the beginning of the Goodwood era and representing Rolls-Royce 1.0 with its unique architecture. Its successor saw the creation of the ‘Architecture of Luxury,’ an all-aluminium spaceframe used for Cullinan and Ghost, signifying Rolls-Royce 2.0. Now, with the Spectre’s fully-electric powertrain and Decentralized Intelligence, we’re entering the era of Rolls-Royce 3.0, marking a new chapter in super-luxury motoring.

The designers found inspiration in various areas like fashion, art, and yacht design, focusing on yacht concepts for their clean lines and smart use of reflections.

At the front, there’s a unique split headlight design and the widest-ever Rolls-Royce grille. The grille has smoother vanes for better aerodynamics and a polished stainless steel finish that enhances the car’s appearance through reflections.
