Bentley Mulsanne II facelift

Full-Size Sedan

Product Gallery

Product Overview

Bentley Mulsanne II facelift is an ultra-luxury full-size sedan in production from 2016 to 2020. It is available with a twin-turbocharged V8 engine that displaces 6.75L.

This venerable OHV V8 can trace its heritage to the 1960s. While its 14.6L/100km (16.1mpg) fuel "dis-economy" may be painful, owners are surely prepared to pay for their "smiles-per-mile".

Handcrafted in England, it is meticulously detailed over around 400 hours by a team of highly skilled artisans. Mechanically, it is designed to deliver ultimate refinement in ride experience. Its look is exquisite as it is iconic.
