2018-2019 Bentley Bentayga Mulliner Details


2018-2019 Bentley Bentayga Mulliner

Featuring Bentley's class-leading 6.0-litre, W12 engine, the Bentayga Mulliner combines efficiency and refinement with ultra-luxurious levels of power and torque. With 608 PS (600 bhp) and 900 Nm (663 lb. ft.) delivering a 0-60 mph time of 4.0 seconds (0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds) and a top speed of 187 mph (301 km/h), the Bentayga is the world's fastest SUV.

Produced in very limited numbers due to the highly complex, handcrafted nature of the Bentayga Mulliner's luxurious interior features, this new flagship model will be available to order in Spring 2017.

A special one-off example of the Bentley Bentayga Mulliner will be on the Bentley stand in Geneva next week, featuring a unique inlay to the front fascia depicting the stunning Monte Rosa mountain range in exquisite hand-crafted marquetry.


At a starting price of $235,525, the Bentley Bentayga is the priciest sport-utility vehicle out there, appealing to SUV shoppers for whom cost is no object. Or is it those for whom cost is exactly the object? Those latter folks, particularly, may be interested in the 2018 Bentayga Mulliner, which brings a raft of Bentley bespoke specialness that will send the sticker price even higher.


If Bentaygas are a common sight in your gated community, know that build numbers for the Mulliner will be limited, although just how limited Bentley isn’t yet saying. Nor do we have final word on pricing, but figure something far enough north of $250K to keep it ahead of even the fanciest Range Rover or Mercedes-Benz G-class—although it may face a challenge from the upcoming 2019 Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

2018-2019 Bentley Continental Supersports Details


2018-2019 Bentley Continental Supersports

Bentley announced its fastest and most powerful production model to date: the new Bentley Continental Supersports.

A top speed of 209 mph (336 km/h) and a 0-60 mph time of 3.4 seconds (0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds) make the new Bentley Continental Supersports the world's fastest and most powerful luxury four-seat car.

Similarly, its soft-top sibling, the Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible, is the fastest four-seat convertible in the world, despatching the sprint to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds (0-100 km/h in 3.9 secs) on its way to a 205 mph (330 km/h) top speed.

Bentley's mighty W12 engine, redeveloped for the Supersports with new high-performance turbos and engine hardware, and a torque vectoring system create a Bentley Continental Supersports as agile as it is powerful. Meanwhile, unique styling cues inside and out give the new model a sharpened athletic appearance highlighting its performance potential.



Key to the Supersports' additional outputs are newly designed, higher-capacity turbochargers and a revised charge-air cooling system which create more boost and additional power. In order to harness these additional outputs, upgrades have also been made to the Continental's cranktrain, including new main and conrod bearings.

These extensive engine revisions result in an increase of 80 PS (79 bhp) and 217 Nm (160 lb.ft.) over the 2009 Supersports model - a 10 percent power-to-weight and 25 percent torque-to-weight ratio improvement. The top speed rises by five miles per hour (and the 0-60 mph time drops by 0.3 seconds).

The Supersports also benefits from a new torque converter which locks up faster allowing the car to make best use of the enhanced torque figure of 1,017 Nm (750 lb. ft.), and accelerate from standstill even more rapidly.



Inside, a host of bespoke styling details enhance the contemporary British luxury experience.

A unique colour split has been created, using three colours: the first tri-tone interior offered in this generation Continental GT. A new diamond-quilted design is incorporated in the seats and door side panels for a unique signature in Alcantara, while chequered Supersports carbon-fibre fascia panels join the existing list of ten veneers and technical finishes available. The interior is completed by new Supersports emblem stitching, and a bespoke Supersports steering wheel and unique gearlever, both featuring Alcantara accents.

A titanium exhaust option is available for drivers seeking a more intense audible experience. As well as a stirring soundtrack, the Titanium system also provides a weight reduction.


It seems unlikely that Bentley will charge anything less than £150,000 for the new Continental GT – a figure that represents a relatively small increase over the current model. That said, most Bentleys don’t leave the showroom without options costing many thousands of pounds so the W12 version could end up costing upwards of £200,000.
