Lutz Valdeig has recently envisioned a potential Rolls-Royce soft crossover staying true to the brand’s design philosophy.
According to him a possible Rolls-Royce crossover/SUV shouldn’t be as rugged as some of the other models in this segment which is why the ground clearance is not that high and the concept lacks the usual off-road styling cues. We can also notice several front fascia designs and in one of the versions there are subtle underfloor protection plates.
Talking about the overall design, it mimics Rolls-Royce’s recent models but slightly more rounded while maintaining the conservative styling of the brand. A few of the design cues along with the double headlights are taken from the Silver Shadow and one of the renders shows an extended wheelbase created for those who prefer to be chauffeured.
In last October Rolls-Royce chief Torsten Müller-Ötvös had stated that the firm’s designers are creating a few design sketches for a possible SUV but even so such a model is still a few years away. When the model will eventually reach the production stage, it will be made at the Goodwood factory and is expected to cost around 250,000 GBP.
