Bentley unveiled the new Mulsanne Grand Limousine by Mulliner at the Geneva Motor Show yesterday. It’s the latest creation of Mulliner, their in-house coach-building division.
The new Bentley Mulsanne Grand Limo has iPad stations, fold-out tables, and champagne flutes and is the longest ultra-luxury saloon in the world. It is one metre longer than the standard Mulsanne, with most of the additional length accounted for by and extended wheelbase. It is also 79mm taller. The extra-long Mulsanne offers 250mm (9.8in) of extra legroom at the back, which is complimented by the airline-style extending leg rests and a rear sunroof for maximum pleasure.
The rear cabin design is inspired by the interiors of a private jet, with four seats which face each other with a detailed wood-veneered roof bow above. Below is a leather-sheathed cabin with a number of useful features, including the three dials on the veneer panel that show the temperature outside, UK time and local time.
Bentley have employed electrochromatic smart glass, allowing passengers to turn the glass partition screen from clear to opaque at the touch of a button.
Bentley revised the Mulsanne with a new HVAC system that has been exclusively developed and features iPad charging, docking stations, veneered fold-out tables, a bottle cooler and soft drink cabinet with bespoke tumblers. The intercom system handles communication between the driver and the coach.
