Bentley Mulsanne

Anyone who has experienced the effortless acceleration that arrives regardless of engine speed or gear selection will know just how astonishing the effect can be.  With those objectives in mind, the Mulsanne's engineers considered a variety of engine configurations before settling on a radically re-engineered version of Bentley's acclaimed 6¾-litre V8.

Every major component from the forged crankshaft to the pistons are now designed for even better engine response.

To achieve a significant reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions plus improved refinement and torque, the Mulsanne's V8 sees the introduction of two new control systems: Cam Phasing and, a first for the flagship motoring sector, Variable Displacement. Variable Displacement imperceptibly powers down four cylinders when cruising with a light load. The moment you press your foot down, however, it seamlessly brings all eight cylinders back into play.

The Mulsanne develops 512PS (505bhp / 377kW) while the massive torque (1020Nm / 752lb ft) is now delivered even earlier at 1750 rev/min. This dramatic ability to produce maximum torque from just above idle and then right through the rev range ensures that with a mere tap of the accelerator you are immediately rewarded with that characteristic deep, muffled V8 burble and relentless acceleration.
