    The Cullinan Completes The Rolls-Royce Offerings

    According to the words of Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO of Rolls-Royce, the recently launched SUV called the Cullinan has completed the brand’s model line up. This means that we shouldn’t expect any new products from the luxury carmaker as five models currently under production are a complete puzzle.

    With production of the Dawn, Ghost, Phantom, Wraith and now the Cullinan as well, Müller-Ötvös hints that thanks to the Cullinan, being the fifth model line, the marquee’s line up is now complete. The CEO also ruled out possibility of Rolls-Royce taking advantage of the booming market of the smaller SUV.

    “I’d never say never, never, never, but we don’t currently have any plans to expand our model line up any further,” said the CEO, adding that Rolls-Royce aims to maintain its reputation of selling special, high-end vehicles to lucky individuals with expensive taste rather than to chase high volume production. Furthermore, Rolls-Royce customers showed little interest in a smaller SUV.

    Although this may come as a disappointment to those who were anticipating a small, ultra-luxury SUV, these are good news for the Cullinan as it will have no internal competition. In fact, not only does it boast positive feedback from customers, the SUV’s sales have far exceeded projections.

    Yes, the Cullinan as an SUV is pretty much on a league of its own (though the Bentley Bentayga begs to differ) for now. But with Aston Martin’s plans of dishing out its own particularly luxurious SUV in the future, the Rolls-Royce’s days of glory may be numbered. The trouble is though that Aston plans to place its SUV under the Lagonda sub-brand which aims to the dominate the world of EVs while Rolls Royce is still adamant on retaining the V12 for now.

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
