The Peak of Coachbuilding Bentley’s Mulliner division is the oldest coachbuilder in the world, and the Batur is their masterpiece. Following the success of the roofless Bacalar, the Batur Convertible offers a more traditional but no less exclusive grand touring experience. With only 16 units being hand-built in Crewe, England, it is a car that most people will only ever see in photographs.
The Batur is significant because it carries the most powerful version of Bentley’s 6.0-liter W12 engine ever made. It produces 740 hp and a massive 738 lb-ft of torque. This is the engine’s “final encore” before Bentley transitions to a fully electric lineup. For the UHNW individual, driving a Batur is an opportunity to experience the very best of British engineering before it disappears into the history books.
Bespoke Gold and Sustainable Tech The interior of the Batur is a showcase of what is possible when money is no object. The “wow” factor is the optional 3D-printed 18-karat gold accents on the “Charisma Dial” (the start/stop button) and the organ stop air vent controls. But it’s not just about traditional luxury; Bentley is also using sustainable “super-fibers” made from flax, which are as strong as carbon fiber but far more environmentally friendly.
The exterior design language, which Bentley calls “The Resting Beast,” features a long hood and a rearward-leaning stance that suggests power even when the car is stationary. The convertible top is a work of art in itself, using a multi-layer fabric that provides the same acoustic insulation as a hardtop, allowing for effortless conversation even at triple-digit speeds.
