Bentley, predictably, is keener for the Mulsanne to be seen as a [...]

The next-generation Bentley Continental GT has been caught testing and shows a new nose. However, this singular shot proves Bentley is taking considerable pains to update the aging GT with some new sheetmetal, a noticeably revised fascia and a sloping roofline that terminates into a more sculpted hatch. From what we can see, the front [...]

The 0-60 mph sprint is dispatched in just 4.2 sec., and the quarter-mile in 12.9 sec. at 106.7 mph. Pretty impressive for a sedan weighing a [...]

Bentley has released an interesting video of the assembly process of the Bentley Mulsanne. Enjoy! “Each car is individual,” Wickham says. “You can see from the layout, from the point of view of interior and exterior colors, the amount of variation we can get out of this build stage.” Indeed, over 100 exterior colors are [...]
