Bentley once again takes us into the world of exclusive automotive products with its latest masterpiece – the Bentley Batur Convertible. It is an extremely limited series, where each copy will be tailored according to the wishes of the customer, who has a choice of unlimited customization options. This convertible doesn't just impress with its looks, but also with the business it does under the bonnet – it's one of the last vehicles to feature the famous 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine. Only 16 will be made.
Z 740 horsepower (552 kW) and 999 Nm of torque, it is clear that Bentley Batur Convertible is not only a beauty but also a beast. We can expect this pinnacle of the twelve-cylinder era to reverberate in the ears of powerful engine enthusiasts for a long time to come. This engine says goodbye after more than 20 years of service, during which power has increased by almost 40 %, while fuel consumption has dropped by 25 %. With all this power, the Batur easily navigates the road with the help of an eight-speed dual-speed automatic transmission.
Not just a car, but a work of art on four wheels
Visually, the Bentley Batur Convertible does not skimp on details. From a choice of colors that are endless, to hand-painted graphics and materials such as aluminum or titanium for the exterior treatment. The interior is just as customizable with rose gold accents and seats that call for long drives at sunsets.
Batur Convertible boasts an integrated ducktail spoiler and 22-inch wheels that give the car a special touch. The whole thing is rounded off by a fabric roof that hides elegantly when you want to enjoy the boundless sky – a process that takes just 19 seconds.
The price? If you're asking, it's probably not for you
Bentley so far he has not revealed the price, but considering that the coupe version cost around 2.1 million euros ($2.33 million), we expect the convertible to go on sale for similarly astronomical sums. Of course, for such a price you get not only a car, but also exclusivity, because there will only be 16 lucky people in the world who will be able to say that it is theirs.
