Beautiful and classic as expected. Classic RR in the front and the rear slant towards the back window (although hard to tell much from the angle) appears it may borrow some styling from the Range Rover. A good combo for my eye.

Well, that's about what I would expect a RR SUV to look like...

These SUVs look comical when the brand's design cues don't fit the shape of the car needed. Just like that maybach SUV shown recently.
They pretty much look like Power Wheels.

It's like all they did was take a RR sedan, lop off the trunk, and stretch it vertically.

But I'm sure it will still sell, just as the ugly bentayga sells. Rich people want to show the world that they have money, no matter how ugly the car looks.

I love it. I'm saving my pennies... even if it has an awkward glass partition to separate the passenger and cargo spaces (at least it's optional).

i wonder when RR will evolve away from the boxy design. They could have made it sleeker and still retained some trademark elements.

Hideous. When will it stop.

The interior design is even really ugly.

Just my opinion, but I totally disagree. I think its near impossible to do their trademark grill with a sleek design, simply because the the grill is so damn boxy.

You think this is bad, isn't Lotus rumored to make an SUV soon too? Can you imagine trying to morph an Elise to an SUV

I'm not too worried about the looks. I wonder how many of these I'll actually see in my lifetime...
