2017 Bentley Mulsanne

THE ULTIMATE STATEMENT OF CRAFTSMANSHIP AND AUTOMOTIVE LUXURY

• Elegantly executed styling revisions give Bentley's flagship a fresh modern presence

• State-of-the-art chassis technologies deliver a step change in refinement

• Innovative and advanced on-board technology


Handcrafted in England, it takes around 400 hours for a team of highly skilled artisans to build each Mulsanne at Bentley's Crewe headquarters, where each one of Bentley's flagships is built from 'the ground up'.

Advanced chassis technologies inside the new Mulsanne deliver a step change in refinement. Inside the cabin, more efficient air springs and hydraulically-damped sub frame bushes have resulted in a cabin noise reduction of 4 decibels. Meanwhile, innovative noise absorber technology within the tyres reduces peak rolling noise by 50%. Finally, the Mulsanne's powerful V8 engine has been quieted by 25 decibels, utilising a closed loop system using active cancellation of vibration. These changes result in the world's most refined ride.
The new Bentley Mulsanne exterior has been redesigned. A new, imposing front end is dominated by a large stainless steel vertical-vane grille, while a suite of exterior changes give the new Mulsanne a more modern, integrated appearance, whilst giving the car more visual width and presence.

On the inside, occupants will of course find the world's finest handcrafted wood, leather and metal fittings, and the new Mulsanne also boasts redesigned seats, new door trims and armrests, unique glass switchgear and an industry-leading palette of 24 exquisite hide colours.

The new Mulsanne features a completely new infotainment system, boasting class-leading navigation technology. It also features a selection of on-board infotainment systems that raise the bar for audio and visual entertainment on the move.

MULSANNE EXTENDED WHEELBASE REAR PASSENGER COMFORT REDEFINED

• 250 mm extension entirely to the benefit of rear passenger legroom

• Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase provides a first-class air-travel experience for the road

• Airline-style rear seats are the new benchmark in passenger comfort

• Deployable, folding tables for rear seat passengers working on the move

Designed for customers with a preference for being driven, the Bentley Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase offers a first-class air-travel experience for the road.

The 250 mm extension of the Mulsanne's wheelbase (from 3,266 mm up to 3,516 mm) is entirely to the benefit of rear-seat passenger legroom. This significant increase in interior space makes the Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase the most generously proportion pinnacle luxury limousine in the world, and by far the most comfortable way to travel on four wheels.

To make the best use of the additional rear legroom, Bentley has developed airline-style electronic leg rests which are integrated into the bases of the two rear seats. These extend outward and pivot, affording rear-seat passengers the luxury of choice between upright, relaxed and reclined seating positions.

A beautifully appointed console separates the two rear seats in the Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase. Ornate and functional, the console is appointed in the finest handcrafted veneer, metal, glass and leather and houses practical features such as ÚSB ports, pen holders, cup holders and a glass-covered stowage area.

For those passengers who wish to work on the move, both rear seats can also be specified with a deployable, folding table. For privacy, electric curtains at the rear are standard fitment and can be tailored with either a black or champagne coloured interior lining.

Rear-seat passengers also benefit from a large-format sunroof over the rear cabin. Controlled by the passengers or the driver, the tilting and sliding glass panel (with Alcantara sun blind) allows natural light to flood into the Mulsanne's beautifully appointed cabin and clearly reinforces the Extended Wheelbase's focus on the rearward passenger.
