Bentley Grand Convertible In Royal Blue Color
BENTLEY has unveiled the stunning Grand Convertible concept, ahead of its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The Grand Convertible is powered by Bentley's formidable 530bhp 6 3/4-liter twin-turbo V8, so progress will be as rapid as it is stylish. Although the company is keeping quiet about exact performance figures, this engine catapults the Mulsanne from 0-62mph (100kph) in a little over 5 seconds and on to a top speed of 184mph (296kph).
It's 4 seats are wrapped in 14 naturally tanned leather hides, hand-matched and merged together with Bentley's trademark diamond quilting needlework, which subtly changes size as the pattern progresses through the cabin. A sequin blue (to match the bespoke exterior paint color) cross thread acts as a subtle contrast and is also hand-stitched into the leather. All Bentleys are a soothing sea of wood, leather and chromed brightwork but the Grand Convertible takes things up a notch with the tonneau (the panel that covers the roof when down). The biggest individual piece of wood veneer ever fitted to a Bentley, the book-matched mirror-finished walnut burr piece is shaped entirely by hand.
