BENTLEY BATUR CONVERTIBLE
It was in the heart of the Swiss Alps, during a private event reserved for luxury car enthusiasts and collectors, that Bentley unveiled its latest masterpiece: the Bentley Batur Convertible. This exclusive model not only embodies the pinnacle of British luxury but also represents Bentley's transition toward a more eco-friendly and forward-thinking era. It is the second model in the "Batur" lineup, following the Batur coupe, which marked the launch of Bentley's vision for electrification and futuristic design.
However, this convertible version goes even further, offering an open-air driving experience while retaining the brand's iconic features.
DESIGN: THE PERFECT HARMONY BETWEEN LUXURY AND BOLDNESSAt first glance, Bentley Batur Convertible impresses with its elegant yet muscular lines.
Its design draws inspiration from the Batur coupe but features distinctive details that set it apart. The prominent honeycomb grille and ultra-modern LED headlights confirm a contemporary aesthetic.
Meanwhile, the low and sleek profile reflects the power concealed beneath the hood. The body, handcrafted in Bentley’s Crewe workshops, is fully customizable, offering an endless range of colors and premium materials, from metallic paint to carbon fiber finishes. Brushed copper and anodized aluminum inserts complete the look of this automotive masterpiece.
The interior is a true showcase of luxury. Soft leathers sourced from the finest tanneries in the UK and Italy are available in a bespoke range of colors, while the woodwork, crafted from noble woods, adds an artisanal touch. The heated and ventilated front seats are also equipped with massage functions, ensuring optimal comfort during long journeys. Additionally, each Bentley Batur Convertible is fitted with an advanced digital interface, incorporating the latest connectivity technologies, while maintaining the charm of Bentley's traditional analog controls.
POWER AND PERFORMANCE: A BEAST UNDER THE HOODBeneath the sculpted hood of the Bentley Batur Convertible lies an engine that defies
convention. True to its performance heritage, Bentley has equipped the Bentley Batur Convertible with a 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 engine, delivering a staggering 740 horse- power. This engine, born from a long tradition of mechanical excellence, propels this over 2-ton vehicle from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds, despite its luxurious grand tourer nature.
This powerhouse, paired with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system, ensures perfect grip and handling, even on the most winding roads.
The adaptive suspension allows the driver to switch from the comfort of a luxury sedan to the handling of a true sports car, depending on their preferences. Furthermore, for the first time, Bentley has integrated a torque vectoring system into this model, providing even more precise control during tight corners..
TECHNOLOGY AND COMFORT: THE PINNACLE OF SOPHISTICATIONThe Bentley Batur Convertible also stands out with its cutting-edge onboard technologies. The high-resolution 12.3-inch touchscreen, paired with a Naim audio system featuring 20 speakers, ensures an immersive experience on every journey.
The vehicle is also equipped with a head-up display, a night vision system, and Level 2 autonomous driving assistance, providing unmatched safety and comfort on the road. The fabric roof, which can deploy or retract in just 19 seconds even at speeds of up to 50 km/h, is also customizable, with options for acoustic finishes to ensure optimal sound insulation. Whether the roof is open or closed, the cabin remains a true cocoon of silence, thanks to advanced engineering that reduces external noise.
