Talk of coupe and convertible versions of the Mulsanne dates back to when the Bentley flagship sedan made its debut in 2009. Bentley last year finally got around to confirming a small run of Mulsanne convertibles, referred to as the Bentley Grand Convertible. However, we're still yet to see...

Bentley is set to launch an ultra-exclusive run of convertibles based on the (big) bones of the Mulsanne. The car, referred to as the Bentley Grand Convertible, was first shown as a concept in 2012 during a private event coinciding with the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. It was only...

Bentley has been making some news lately with its redesigned Continental GT. The British marque should, too, because it's one gorgeous ultra-luxury sporting coupe. For those who need more space, more luxury, and more presence, though, there's always the Bentley Mulsanne. A fresh twist on the car is...

The Bentley Mulsanne isn't your typical automobile. It aims to redefine what luxury means. In fact, it's referred to as a "pinnacle car," rather a "luxury car." This is the pinnacle of Bentley's capability. It's not uncommon for the production process of a Bentley Mulsanne to approach 400 hours of...

The Mulsanne is the luxurious sedan that sits in the flagship position of Bentley's lineup. It's expensive, rare, powerful, and wonderfully outfitted. It's a Bentley, though, so there's always room to make a special car even more outstanding. This is where the new Hallmark Series by Mulliner...

If you have a fair number of vehicles in your garage, it might come time where you find yourself with the need to get rid of one. Maybe more, if you're Adam Carolla and need to dump your vintage Lamborghini collection. Maybe you just have one to sell though, and it's a time you pop that bad boy on...

Bentley prides itself on making the finest interiors in the automotive industry, and we find it hard to argue with that notion. The quality of the materials, the expert levels of craftsmanship, the beauty of the designs, and the care put into blocking noise, vibration and harshness make Bentley...

We’ve been hearing about a convertible version of the Mulsanne ever since the Bentley flagship made its debut at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show. Bentley even built a Mulsanne convertible concept which it first showed to potential customers in 2012 but then shelved a year later. When current CEO...

There's a new phrase for the very top layer of luxury in the car world. "Pinnacle cars" are the diamond-quilted, champagne-fluted versions of, you know, everyday luxury cars. A Benz S-Class isn't good enough to qualify. Make it a Maybach. Better yet, make it a Pullman. A Phantom? Fine, for...

Last year, Bentley offered up a visually boosted version of its Flying Spur. It was called the Beluga Specification, and that whale of a name highlighted that this Flying Spur had some grand styling options. The exterior and interior were reworked with Mulliner-provided bits.

It was only a day ago that we saw a prototype for an updated version of the Bentley Mulsanne, and now we have a new prototype for a long-wheelbase Mulsanne. At 219.5 inches in length, and with a wheelbase of 128.5 in, few would consider the Mulsanne as lacking in size, but there’s been strong...

In the early parts of the last century, well-heeled car enthusiasts would attempt to beat a train—nicknamed the “Blue Train” because of its blue carriages—that ran across France, between Calais in the country’s north and Cannes in the south. According to Bentley, the...

Whipping three tons of steel, wood, and glass through the corner, I settle the wheel, straighten the car, and press the brakes—hard. Coming to a stop, I press and hold the traction control button. It’s time for a $406,000 burnout. Sadly, none of this is on video. Gladly, my head is a...

We aren’t sure how many Bentley Mulsanne buyers deemed the car’s 505-horsepower to be insufficient for their needs, but we’re glad enough of them spoke up to persuade Bentley to launch an even more powerful version of its flagship sedan. That more powerful version is the 2015...
