The British car manufacturer Rolls-Royce has rendered images of its upcoming SUV. On first glance, one would think the model had been inspired by Phantom, and rightly so; the front end of the car displays the Phantom’s signature look that many of us have come to know and love. The new model from Rolls-Royce, however, is actually a test mule for the brand’s new all-wheel drive suspension system to be fitted in to the company’s upcoming SUV.

Although the company has refuted reports of any possible similarities between the test mule and the brand’s upcoming, still, the current look is quite intimidating as well as sophisticated, thus portraying an image of class and stature.

For now, tests are being conducted to determine if the newly fitted suspension system will perform well on the road and deliver good on its promise of providing the brand’s hallmark ‘magic carpet ride’ when it goes off.
