Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge 2026: an ultra-luxury SUV focused on performance and individuality
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge 2026 is the most powerful and driver-focused version of the marque’s flagship SUV.
It is designed for customers who value a combination of absolute luxury and enhanced performance.
The Black Badge range traditionally has a more assertive character, darkened exterior details and extensive personalisation options, while retaining Rolls-Royce’s signature “magic carpet ride” — a benchmark for ride comfort.
Powertrain and performance
Power comes from a 6.75-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V12. In the Black Badge, it produces 600 PS and 900 Nm of torque, providing strong pulling power across the rev range and an immediate response to the accelerator.
It is one of the most powerful production SUVs in the ultra-luxury segment, combining high performance with exceptionally smooth operation.
An eight-speed automatic gearbox works with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system.
The suspension, with air springs and adaptive dampers, is designed to provide a high level of comfort on a range of surfaces, including off-road.
The Cullinan Black Badge accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately 4.7 seconds, a notable figure for a full-size luxury SUV.
Design and interior
The Cullinan Black Badge 2026 is distinguished by dark chrome, exclusive 23-inch wheels and more pronounced design details.
The interior places an emphasis on personalisation, with premium leather, decorative inserts, digital architecture and distinctive trim choices creating the atmosphere of a private luxury space.
The vehicle is suited both to owner-drivers and chauffeur-driven use, offering a high level of comfort in every row.
