New Bentley Muliner

Post by Ascender »

730bhp and said to be a bit of a "shame of things to come" for their design language going forward.

I saw a side-on shot of it on social media and thought it was a Taycan. The front looks like a Jag to me and that rear screen and quarter angle is straight off an Aston isn't it?

Image

And a wee bit Merc too?

Image

Or maybe a bit of a Mustang.

Cheers,

Mike.

It doesn’t look as good as the regular continental on which I presume it’s based on :?
How about not having a sig at all?

Some Polestar and BMW in their also.
Not for me, but it'll do its job of softening people up for mainstream models on the way.

If that’s the new design for their EVs then I’m okay with it.. I like the front and don’t like the current convertible GT’s rear

Continental had a threesome with an Audi gt and a taycan, and hoped after birth they’d be able to tell who to send the demand for child support to, but can’t clearly tell which one is the daddy after all

The modern wave of sleek EVs is comin…… oh, same same.

I think that’s the last hurrah of the W12 engine isn’t it ?

Visually it looks less "heavy" than the current coupes - which can only be a good thing.

Yeah I definitely saw Polestar too, but I couldn't put my finger on why

From the side of looks a bit like someone grafted the top half of a Jag coupe onto the bottom half of the existing Bentley

It's not for me thank you

Looks like an Audi A5 with a thicker C pillar and a body kit.
