The design on the new Mulsanne is a unique fusion of sportiness,elegance and solidity.Everything in the car starting from the painted body, hand crafted leather hides and wood veneers, to the powerful engine and myraid electrical components,use skills passed down through generations at the manufacturing plant of this rich car.It is equipped with a 6.75 litre V8 engine generating 505 hp and 1,020 Nm torque,coupled to a new eight-speed automatic transmission that comes with steering -wheel mounted paddleshift. A quick look at the interior says a lot about the ultra-rigorous approach to quality,applied from the earliest planning stages, where every leather and wood veener option is subjected to extreme temperatures as well as an exhaustive array of further durability tests.But this is not all.
The interior of the Mulsanne is unlike any other car in the world. Step inside and you immediately become immersed in a unique atmosphere where carefully positioned mood lighting and the aroma of leather are complemented by knurled stainless steel, smooth wood veneers and cutting-edge technology. All exquisitely packaged for your comfort.
The attention to detail on show is befitting of a flagship Bentley. Take the sumptuous leather, handpicked from herds in cooler climates where the lack of insects means blemish-free hides. Soft and supple, they are then tanned in a traditional process, originally used during the construction of fine furniture pieces that optimises their natural aroma.
A stunning continuous wooden waist rail surrounds the entire cabin and our world-famous mirror matched veneers make a perfect symmetrical pattern across the entire car. Only in a car like the Mulsanne could you achieve such a remarkable design signature.
The optional bottle cooler holds two champagne bottles in a canted position (so that a half-full bottle can be placed there without spillage). Its contemporary design with a powered, frosted glass cover and white LED lighting is complemented by the champagne flutes, designed for Mulsanne by David Redman of London and was inspired by the 5-spoke Mulsanne alloy wheel design.
