At this year’s Monterey Car Week, British luxury car manufacturer Bentley will reveal their new model, the Bentley Mulliner Batur. The brand claims that it will showcase themes and forms that will define their future range of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) when it is officially unveiled at 07:00 GST on August 21.

Batur name origins

Like the Bacalar, the name of the soon to be revealed model, Batur comes from the Indonesian Lake Batur. A beautiful body of water located in Kintamani on the island of Bali.

Bentley Mulliner is the oldest coachbuilder in the world and is synonymous with the handcraftsmanship of exclusive coachbuilt grand tourers, at the pinnacle of the Bentley family.

So much more than the successor to Bacalar project, the Bentley Mulliner Batur will launch a new design language for Bentley.

In 2020 Bentley Mulliner showcased its new vision with three portfolios: Coachbuilt, Classic and Collections.

The coachbuilt line saw the manufacturer return to its historic coachbuilding roots and customers were able to work closely with a team of specialist designers to enhance their vehicle with a selection of unique materials and specially curated options.
