Here's what we know about the luxurious Rolls-Royce SUV that was seized by Customs

A luxurious Rolls-Royce car, which was unloaded from Chattogram Customs without duties being paid, was seized from Baridhara Diplomatic Zone in Dhaka by the officials of the Customs Intelligence and Investigation Department. 

The model of this particular car that was seized is Rolls-Royce Cullinan. It is a full-sized luxury sport utility vehicle (SUV)  produced by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. These SUVs were named after the Cullinan Diamond, the largest gem-quality rough diamond ever discovered.

Most of the Cullinan's exterior design has been adapted from the novel 8th generation Rolls Royce Phantom such as the front grille and the headlights. The Cullinan uses an aluminium spaceframe chassis; this is a version of Rolls-Royce's modular "Architecture of Luxury" platform.

These cars have a 6750 cc engine with 563.0 Brake Horsepower and provide a mileage of  9/10 km per litre.

The Cullinan is also fitted with a stereo camera integrated into the front windscreen that scans the road ahead and adjusts the suspension proactively so as to improve ride quality.

The interior features new leather applied seats and wooden appliances. This car is the only Rolls Royce to have a glass partition between the luggage compartment and the passenger compartment.
