Rolls-Royce has officially announced the name of its new large hatchback vehicle that will be designed to travel off-road as well as on pavement. It will be called the Cullinan. But Rolls-Royce would prefer that you don’t call it an SUV. Rolls-Royce refers to it, simply, as a high-sided car. The Cullinan is named after the largest flawless diamond ever found. Weighing nearly 1.5 pounds, the Cullinan diamond was uncovered in South Africa in 1905 and, today, is owned by Queen Elizabeth. The Culllinan name is not entirely new for this vehicle, The Rolls-Royce SUV — because, really, that’s what it is — has been called “Project Cullinan” since shortly after its development was announced three years ago.
