New 2011 Bentley Mulsanne Revealed at Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance

The 2011 Bentley Mulsanne was revealed at the annual Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in Monterey, CA this weekend.

 

The luxury car, dubbed “The Grand Bentley”, will go on sale in mid-2010. The details about the car’s chassis, powertrain and further statistics will be revealed next month at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show. However, Bentley does confirm that the car will contain a complete redesign of the existing 6.75-liter V-8 engine.

 

The Mulsanne name was taken from the famous 90-degree corner at Le Mans, scene of six Bentley victories, and was last used on a predecessor to the Arnage that was built and sold from 1980-92.

 

The 2011 Mulsanne was engineered and designed, and will be built, at Bentley headquarters in Crewe, England. It was created by a team headed by design chief Dirk van Braeckel. It is said to have been inspired by the 1930 Bentley 8-liter, which was built in extremely limited numbers before founder W.O. Bentley sold the company to Rolls-Royce in 1931.

 

The Mulsanne is Bentley’s first complete new car in 75 years. For photos of the 2011 Bentley Mulsanne, please go to the picture gallery below.
