(Crewe, 1 October 2024) Bentley’s new portfolio of daily supercars expands today with the addition of the Mulliner versions to the fourth-generation Continental GT, GTC and Flying Spur, from Bentley’s bespoke division. Building on the specification of the performance-focused Speed models with the addition of even more options and luxury details, the Mulliner range offers a striking visual difference with bespoke craftsmanship, increased wellness features and additional technology as standard. The Mulliner versions define the pinnacle models of each of Bentley’s newest product families.

To the exterior, all models receive a new Mulliner signature ‘Floating Diamond’ radiator grille with chrome surround and centre bar, chrome lower grilles, chromeware to the side of the car and chrome-finish tailpipes. The chromeware is complemented by Satin Silver mirror caps. Alternatively, all of the exterior chrome and the mirror caps can be specified in gloss black, through selection of Mulliner Blackline. The Mulliner range also includes a specifically designed 22” wheel in two different finishes, Tungsten Grey or gloss black, both with polished accents and finished with self-levelling Bentley Mulliner wheel badges.

For the Continental GT Mulliner and GTC Mulliner, the fourth-generation face of the car features twin single headlamps with a new, unique and highly intricate ‘cut crystal’ reflector, while a Mulliner badge is fitted to the front wings. For the Flying Spur Mulliner, the Flying B radiator mascot is included as standard (with chrome or black finish), as well as a new Mulliner wing vent with double-diamond detailing.

Welcome and Coming Home light sequences featuring an animation of the Bentley wings are among the many other delightful Mulliner features, as are red-tinted tail lamps (replacing the grey-tinted lamps of the Speed).     

Mulliner illuminated outer treadplates and deep-pile overmats welcome passengers inside the ultimate Bentley cabin, which offers a Mulliner curation of custom-made, three-colour combinations. The sumptuously trimmed cockpit is complemented by accent colour piping and unique Mulliner embroidery to the hand-stitched seats with a newly designed Mulliner diamond perforation pattern. For the Continental GTC Mulliner, the new stitching pattern extends to the tonneau cover, visible whenever the seven-bow fabric roof is lowered. New standard features for the Mulliner range also include Wellness seating with Postural Adjust and Auto Climate to the front seats (and to the rear in the Flying Spur), minimising fatigue and providing a level of relaxation and onboard wellness that is truly unique.

The Mulliner design theme continues in the LED driver’s instrument panel, with stylish and exclusive graphics. The now famous Bentley Rotating Display, sports pedals, heated duo-tone three-spoke steering wheel and panoramic sunroof for the Flying Spur and Continental GT add further to the luxurious ambience.

Mulliner models receive leather-bound keys in a unique, Mulliner-branded handcrafted presentation box, matching the three-colour cabin configuration of their car. The two keys are provided in colour-matched cases with contrast stitching.

All of the Mulliner range also include Touring Specification, Colour Specification, animated welcome lamps, mood lighting and Grand Black veneers with a Mulliner overlay. Customers may opt for any of Bentley’s other mainstream veneers in lieu of Grand Black, at no cost.

Visual delight and hand crafted opulence

The interior of the new Mulliner models is a masterclass of craftsmanship showing painstaking attention to detail. A wide choice of new Mulliner-designed hide colour splits is further enhanced by a third accent colour in the form of a distinctive design line.

The new Mulliner models are offered with Comfort Seat Specification, available for all four seats of the Flying Spur Mulliner and the front two seats on the two-door Continental models. Wellness functions such as Postural Adjust and Seat Auto Climate minimise fatigue and promote a sense of relaxed comfort even on the longest journeys. The wellness and comfort of driver and passengers is further enhanced by an air conditioning system that now includes air ionisers, a new particulate matter filter and displays showing air quality outside and inside the vehicle. The system synchronises with the car’s satellite navigation, knowing when it might be necessary to improve cabin air quality (for example by recirculating the cabin air when in a tunnel).

Abundant power and refinement

As befits such pinnacle models, the new Continental GT Mulliner, Continental GT Convertible Mulliner and Flying Spur Mulliner feature Bentley’s remarkable new Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain, shared with the Speed versions. The new powertrain combines a new 4.0 litre V8 engine capable of producing 600 PS (584 bhp) with a 190 PS (187 bhp) electric motor. Peak system output is 782 PS (771 bhp) and 1000 Nm (738 lb ft) of torque. The new powertrain delivers extreme performance and sets the latest Bentleys apart from their competition - with more horsepower, more torque and a significant drop in CO2 and fuel consumption figures to around one tenth of equivalent conventional petrol powertrains. In turn, this provides an extraordinary range of driving capability, from extreme but daily supercar performance to effortless electric luxury.   

At one extreme, it’s capable of serene, silent progress in pure EV mode for up to 50 miles (81 km) for the Continental GT (47 miles (76 km) for the Flying Spur), ideal for Zero Emission Zones or city travel. Full electric mode can be deployed at speeds of up to 87 mph / 140 km/h, with throttle applications of up to 75 per cent. The battery can be fully replenished in as little as 2¾ hours thanks to significant improvements in charger and battery capacity, with 11 kW peak charging power.  When more spirited driving is desired, the combined 782 PS of Bentley V8 and e-motor delivers sensational performance. Complementing the power of the new Ultra Performance Hybrid is a new dual valve damper system and dual chamber air springs, which enables more sophisticated tuning options. The result is that the new Mulliner models can achieve an even more impressive combination of performance, handling, and magic carpet refinement.

A palette of choice

For all three Mulliner models, customers can choose from a paint range of 101 colours, though this can be expanded to any colour from Bentley’s past, and bespoke paint-matching is also available. For the interior, 15 primary hide colours, 11 secondary shades and 6 accent colours offer endless colour combinations, while Mulliner can also utilise bespoke shades of leather to expand the range even further. The leathers are joined by eight wood veneer options and a further three technical finishes – which can be utilised as single or dual finishes and can also be paint matched to any interior hide or exterior paint colours. 

Seamless integration of technology

All models benefit from the latest generation of electrical architecture, providing a significant step forward in infotainment and driver assistance technology. This technology is the most advanced in the luxury segment and includes an environment display (shown in the driver’s instrument panel) that supports and enables driving in semi-assisted mode. The ownership experience is further enhanced via My Bentley App Studio, Bentley’s digital ecosystem for customers. This offers access to a wide variety of vehicle and third-party applications which can be downloaded directly to the infotainment system, independent of a smartphone.
