Mulliner produces first Bentley Batur Convertible

The first of the Batur Convertibles has been created by Mulliner, Bentley's in-house bespoke and special projects division.

The shimmering silver of its Opalite finish exterior is bisected by a black gloss Batur racing stripe bordered on each side by Mandarin pinstripes, which begins at the radiator and runs rearwards over the bonnet and cockpit before resuming along the rear deck to the Bentley wings badge. At the rear, these elements are connected by bespoke embroidery in the same formation over the rear Tonneau.

A true one-off, the exterior of the Batur Convertible is finished in Opalite with Beluga and Mandarin highlights

The Batur's distinctive matrix grille is finished in gloss Beluga with Mandarin orange highlights, while the same base and accent shades feature on the five-spoke alloy wheels.

Inside, its interior features a "one plus one" design, where the driver's cockpit and passenger accommodation are visually separated by two contrasting but complementing colourways, with Beluga black on the driver's side and Linen for the passenger.

Opening the rear luggage compartment reveals another delightful bespoke element. A two-piece luggage set nestles within; one corresponding to the driver’s colour scheme in Beluga and the other in Linen. As a finishing touch, Mulliner also created two bespoke key cases in the two colourways.

Strictly limited to a small number of cars, the Batur Convertible retains the most powerful version of Bentley's iconic W12, with 6.0-litre engine delivering an output of 740bhp.
