Super luxurious and expensive SUVs will be very popular the next few years. Bentley is making one, Lamborghini will probably also make an SUV and even Rolls-Royce is thinking about this market. This all depends on the BMW X7 which will most certainly come. As competitor of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, the X7 has to become the biggest SUV of BMW. A solid third row of seats and a stretched wheel base compared with the BMW X5 has to give room for seven persons. Is this something we can also expect at Rolls-Royce?
No, that’s not what they’ve planned. A third row of seats will be one of the options but standard, the Rolls-Royce SUV will be a car with four seats. This means that the car will have four luxurious fauteuils to enjoy the passengers. The biggest challenge will be implementing the true Rolls-Royce feeling. When you buy a car which will cost just a bit less than the Ghost, you don’t want to have the feeling you’re driving a modified BMW. However, it all depends on the BMW X7. Do you like to see an SUV made by Rolls-Royce?
