Soon to be the world's fastest ultra-luxury sedan
On October 2nd, Bentley will hit the Paris Auto Show with the all-new Mulsanne Speed, hailed as the world's fastest ultra-luxury sedan. Powered by a 6.75L V8 engine that produces 530 horsepower, it reaches 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds and tops out at 305 km/h.
In terms of styling, a dark tint finish is applied to the radiator grille, lower bumper grilles and wing vents. The distinctive headlights of the Mulsanne Speed show the same dark tint application, and at the rear of the car the taillights retain the “floating ellipse” design, but are similarly finished with a dark tint for a striking appearance, especially at night.
The 21" wheels are individually machined from solid forged blanks before being perfected by hand, while the twin rifled exhaust tailpipes are the finishing touch to the revised powertrain.
The “standard” paint range covers 25 shades, but the optional extended range features over 100 colours.
Inside the lavish cabin of the Bentley Mulsanne Speed, a new and unique colour split is available, balancing diamond quilted light-colour hide with darker, smooth hide. A new technical veneer option is available, with Piano Black veneer panels now including expertly handcrafted carbon fibre inlays.
Concealed beneath the exquisite materials is a suite of technology to make any journey as productive or relaxing as one desires. Highlights include a 60GB hard drive, electrically operated tables with recesses and connections for iPads and matching keyboards, on-board Wi-Fi through a dedicated router, and a 2,200-watt Naim for Bentley premium audio system that offers the best in-car sound experience in the world, according to Bentley.
By the way, a frosted glass bottle cooler, complete with bespoke crystal champagne flutes, may be installed behind the rear armrest.
Pricing for the Bentley Mulsanne Speed has yet to be disclosed, but it's safe to say this car will be accessible to a select few only.
