Bentley’s legendary 6 0-litre, twin-turbocharged W12 engine generates more than 740 PS in the Batur, with chassis technology that includes eLSD, four-wheel steering and 48V electric active anti-roll bars

The exterior headlamps are very compact LED units

All the sustainably sourced gold is 100 % recycled from old jewellery, ground into a fine powder needed for the 3D printing technique
