Reji Philip, a Canadian-Indian businessman gifted a Rolls Royce Cullinan to his wife Anie Philip on their 25th wedding anniversary
Roshan, who lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, recently wrote to tell us about his father, Reji Philip, surprising his mother, Anie Philip, with a Rolls-Royce Cullinan for their 25th wedding anniversary in 2020. Mrs Philip is said to be the first Indian lady in North America to acquire the Cullinan, as well as the world’s second Malayali.
Both of them are seen standing with the ultra-luxurious Rolls Royce Cullinan SUV, which is painted white and has a bespoke number plate with her name on it. The Cullinan moniker is based on the world’s biggest diamond, and it’s been designed as a premium off-road vehicle with all-terrain capability and exceptional comfort, just like a Rolls Royce should be.

For the ‘Magic Carpet Ride,’ the Cullinan has a re-engineered chassis with self-leveling air suspension, bigger air struts, and stronger drive and propeller shafts. The front axles are double-wishbone, while the rear axles are five-link, and power is distributed to all four wheels using an AWD system.
The latter boasts a unique ‘Everywhere’ button for maximising torque in all situations, as well as a 540 mm wading depth. Foldable rear seats with a cargo capacity of 1,930 litres, a two-section “clasp” tailgate with a pair of picnic chairs, suicide back doors, automatically lowering suspension by up to 40 mm, and other innovations are among the highlights of the Rolls Royce Cullinan.
