Bentley announced that it has expanded its Mulliner personalization guide with new open-pore woods and carbon fiber veneers in exclusive shades.
Currently, one in four Bentleys leaves Crewe with Mulliner content, demonstrating that more owners than ever are taking the opportunity to bring their dream Bentley to life through the Mulliner personalization seal.
The latest editions of the guide, aimed at the Continental GT, Flying Spur, and Bentayga, now include new options for textures, colors, and finishes, allowing each Bentley to be a true expression of the individual tastes and values of its owner.
The open-pore veneers from Mulliner give the interior surfaces a soft sheen and a tactile finish that invite the driver and passengers to appreciate the natural wood by touch. These veneers feature an ultra-thin layer of matte varnish, allowing for full enjoyment of the grain and texture of the wood, using 90 percent less varnish than a high-gloss finish.
This treatment, according to Bentley, “enhances the beauty of woods with more expressive patterns, such as Vavona, while another option of open-pore veneer, Liquid Amber, creates a fresh and contemporary atmosphere”.
The carbon fiber interior finishes also contribute to a technical and sophisticated atmosphere. Now, in addition to the traditional high-gloss black carbon fiber finish, Mulliner offers four colored carbon fiber shades that highlight the impeccable symmetry of the underlying carbon weave.
The four colors—Damson, Kingfisher Blue, Imperial Blue, and Cumbrian Green—add a new dimension to an already striking material, allowing for harmony or contrast with the other colors chosen for the cabin.
Alternatively, the Piano Gloss finish, with a mirrored effect, can be applied to all veneered surfaces and combined with many of the standard, extended, or exclusive Mulliner paint color ranges, as well as with the colors of the interior leathers, thus offering more than 100 available shades.
For the front console, the latest range from Mulliner includes the option of veneers with a central stripe, available in open-pore wood or even in one of the more than 100 exterior paint colors currently offered. These can be configured in a straight pattern or in chevron. The finish was inspired by the decks of luxury yachts.
Mulliner is also introducing the Wave, a new technical metal finish, as an additional option for the central console. The pattern of interwoven ribbons creates a repeated undulating effect that captures light and transforms into a stunning focal point of the cabin.
In this way, Mulliner expands the range of options so that each owner can create a Continental GT, GT Convertible, Bentayga, or Flying Spur that is as distinctive as their personality and as unique as a fingerprint.
