The British automaker is making a lot of sport models in the last months. For example, last month the company announced the GT Speed model, and now, recently, they have presented their most luxury car that is going to be launched in 2023, the Bentley Continental GT Mulliner, made by the Mulliner division of the brand.
This model has been made over all the improvements of the Sport cars of the company, all-wheel steering system, electronic limited slip diff, torque-vectoring, an active all-wheel drive system, and a 48V anti-roll system. But the brand has included a three-chamber active air suspension and can be fitted with optional carbon ceramic brakes.
The car is so powerful, with its 6.0-liter W-12 engine generates 650 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. The maximum speed of this model is 335 km/h, and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds. The Continental GT Mulliner has the same engine from the Speed, but the company has achieved 4 percent increase in horsepower over the old W-12. Like the GT Sport, its drive modes split torque between the front and rear wheels more evenly, where the Sport drive mode is more rear-biased.
It can be customized as the customer wants. The interior can be combined with eight different three-color combinations, with a primary and secondary hide joined by a third in a flowing design line. It has a diamond-pattern seat stitching features 712 individual stitches per diamond and multiple stitch colours to choose from.
The model was shown to the public in the last Goodwood Festival of Speed and the company has said that the Continental GT Mulliner will be launched in 2023, but they have not revealed the exactly the moment of the year where they are launching it. The price is not known too, but with the prices of the previous Sport models, it will be $300,000 more or less.
