Overview

  • The inaugural customer-commissioned Batur Convertible, finished in Opalite with Beluga and Mandarin accents, was completed on August 7.
  • A hand-assembled 6.0-litre twin-turbo W12 engine generates 740 bhp, making it the most powerful open-top Bentley ever produced.
  • Clients use a digital visualizer to tailor every detail, including the ‘One plus One’ interior that contrasts driver and passenger colour schemes.
  • Production is capped at 16 convertibles following an initial run of 18 coupes to ensure rarity and collectibility.
  • The model has moved from its ‘Car Zero’ prototype appearance at Goodwood to customer-ready status on display at Monterey Car Week.
