2012 Bentley Mulsanne

If you prefer to be chauffeured around than actually drive, then a Rolls-Royce Phantom is probably the ideal vehicle for you. If, however, you occasionally like to get behind the wheel, then we’d suggest taking a good look at the Bentley Mulsanne.

The Mulsanne is the driver’s choice when it comes to the ultimate in luxury sedans and this gallery presents the car from almost every angle.

Stretching 219 inches in length, the Mulsanne will easily outsize most other vehicles on the road, but at the same time the vehicle’s styling is slightly understated.

Momentum comes from a bespoke 6.75-liter V-8 engine, which has been turbocharged to the tune of 505 horsepower and 752 pound-feet of torque. What the numbers don’t reveal, however, is that most of the engine’s torque is available below 2,000 revs.

The end result is that just a mere tap of the accelerator provides that characteristic deep, muffled V-8 burble and effortless acceleration Bentleys are renowned for. The speed this car can attain in very little time will leave you mesmerized--whether you're actually driving or relaxing in the huge back seat.
