Edición limitada de 30 unidades para despedir el vetusto V8 que lleva en producción 60 años, no me gustan las llantas ni el proyector de luz en las puertas, pero eso tiene facil arreglo Bentley Mulsanne 6.75 Edition By Mulliner Bids Farewell To The Series And Iconic V8 JANUARY 14, 2020 Bentley is waving goodbye to the 6.75-liter engine, the longest-serving V8 in continuous production out there, as well as the Mulsanne luxury saloon with a limited edition of the car, dubbed the Mulsanne 6.75 Edition by Mulliner. Restricted to just 30 examples, it boasts glossy black details on the outside, head and taillights wrapped in bright chrome, and Mulliner Serenity grille, Flying B mascot and exhaust tips with a dark look. The special edition Mulsanne rides on 21-inch five-spoke wheels and features black finished intake manifold and engine number plaque signed by CEO Adrian Hallmark. For the interior, customers can choose between four shades named the Imperial Blue, Beluga, Fireglow and Newmarket Tan. Silver accents have also been added to the cabin and can be found on the dashboard and center console. The seat piping sports a grey look and users will be greeted by the ‘Edition 6.75’ puddle lights upon opening the doors. The unique metal plaque fitted on the console that reads ‘6.75 Edition’, ‘Celebrating 60 years of the L Series V8 engine’ and ‘One of thirty hand built in Crewe by Bentley Mulliner’ completes the look. Based on the Mulsanne Speed, the special edition is powered by the iconic 6.75-liter V8 engine that pushes out 530 PS (523 hp / 394 kW) and 1,100 Nm (811 lb-ft) of torque. Production of the Mulsanne will end this spring and all employees working on the car will be redeployed to other areas of business. Subsequent to the demise of the Mulsanne, the Flying Spur will become the company’s new flagship car and will welcome the addition of a hybrid powertrain by 2023, like all models made by Bentley.
Me dicen que ese coche le ha diseñado un becario chino en los ratos libres mientras hacía cinco etapas del camino De Santiago y me lo creo....
con las llantas te lo compro, pero y al resto del coche que le pasa? Será que uno tiene el gusto atrofiado y le gustan estas cosas
Con una llanta de este estilo y un British Racing Green no metalizado y un interior en madera y caramelo me lo llevo puesto si me lo pagáis. Incluso en beige me sirve
Mi tío compro un fly hace poco de la anterior generación el Muliner w12 560cv en menos de 30.000€ es una pasada
Llantas desafortunadas pero el resto, sublime como cualquier Bentley. Para mí, el Continental GT se acerca a lo que sería el coche perfecto, combinando elegancia, deportividad o comodidad si no te apetece buscarle las cosquillas.
Por fuera no me va mucho, por dentro sí y me quedo con el interior negro y aluminio por la sencillez. Dentro de la marca, sin duda el Continental GT. Verde manzana. Pa molestar lo más posible.
Bentley Mulsanne – End of Production ▪ Mulsanne comes to the end of production after more than a decade ▪ Unique ‘6.75 Edition’ rounds off the summit of automotive luxury ▪ Socially-distanced colleague celebrations around final cars ▪ Over 7,300 vehicles handcrafted in Crewe, Cheshire After more than a decade in production, the final example of the Mulsanne has been completed, signifying the end of an illustrious and extraordinary lifespan. Over 7,300 examples - all handcrafted at Bentley’s home in Crewe, Cheshire - have embodied Bentley’s ability to produce the ultimate luxury sedan. With typical end-of-production celebrations curtailed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Bentley Colleagues gathered for socially-distanced photographs with the final cars, and marked the departure of Mulsanne by sharing their thoughts of the outgoing Bentley flagship on camera. Bentley is today releasing both this Colleague film and a suite of imagery of the penultimate customer car – a Mulsanne Speed ‘6.75 Edition by Mulliner’ finished in Rose Gold over Tungsten, heading to a lucky customer in the USA. One extremely special, final Mulsanne remains behind the penultimate car – however, its future home remains a closely guarded secret. Mulsanne’s lineage can be traced back through Bentley’s history, from the original 8 Litre of 1930 - the last car designed and developed by W.O. Bentley himself – as the most luxurious, coach built Bentley of its time. In the last 11 years, over 700 people have invested nearly three million hours crafting Bentley’s ultra-luxury sedan. Producing the Mulsanne bodies required approximately 42 million spot welds, and creating the sumptuous leather interiors took more than a million hours alone. Nearly 90,000 hours have been spent polishing cars, before a total of over four million individual quality checkpoints. Mulsanne has been a labour of love. A History of Mulsanne Since the launch of the Mulsanne, the car has continued to evolve throughout its lifespan. Revealed to the world at Pebble Beach in 2009, the all-new Mulsanne, developed from the ground-up at Bentley’s home in Crewe, featured a unique exterior and interior design, chassis and new variant of the iconic twin-turbocharged 6.75-litre V8 engine. Mulsanne’s first upgrades in the form of the highly distinctive Mulliner Driving Specification were introduced in 2012. A range of striking new design features including unique 21-inch alloy wheels, Bentley Flying ‘B’ wing vents and a diamond-quilted leather trimmed cabin, matched with a large tilt-opening tinted glass sunroof and an exquisitely designed, electrically operated bottle cooler. The second in a line of three Mulsanne derivatives – the Speed – was unveiled in 2015. Bringing the fastest ultra-luxury driving experience to life, the Mulsanne Speed housed an upgraded version of 6.75-litre V8 engine, delivering 537 PS (530 bhp / 395 kW) and 1,100 Nm (811 lb.ft), along with selectable driver-focused sports suspension and steering. New and contemporary styling features defined the Mulsanne Speed as a statement in quintessential British luxury. A new Mulsanne family was debuted at Geneva in 2016, as the car received a plethora upgrades to further raise the standard of luxury offered in the world’s pinnacle luxury sedan. A suite of elegantly executed styling revisions marked the new Mulsanne out from its predecessor. The entire front-end style of the car (forward of the A pillar) was completely redesigned. The fenders, bonnet, radiator shell, grilles, lights – and bumpers fore and aft – were all updated, giving the car a more modern and integrated appearance. On the inside, the new Mulsanne also boasted redesigned seats, new door trims and armrests, and unique glass switchgear. The new Mulsanne featured a completely new infotainment system, boasting class-leading navigation technology. It also featured a selection of on-board infotainment systems that raised the bar for audio and visual entertainment on the move. In addition, the Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase, the third Mulsanne variant, was developed with the rear-seat passenger in mind. The 250mm extension of the Mulsanne’s wheelbase (from 3,266 mm up to 3,516 mm) was entirely to the benefit of rear-seat passenger legroom. This significant increase in interior space made the Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase the most generously proportioned pinnacle luxury limousine in the world, and by far the most comfortable way to travel on four wheels. Additions of a beautifully appointed console to separate the two rear seats, airline-style electronic leg rests, privacy curtains and ornate folding table complimented the unrivalled luxury environment. Mulsanne 6.75 Edition by Mulliner In 2020, the final series production cars form the unique ‘6.75 Edition by Mulliner’ signifying the end of Mulsanne’s reign. Taking its name from the legendary 6.75-litre engine, which this year also came to the end of production after more than 60 years, the ‘6.75 Edition’ is limited to only 30 examples.
