The 2011 Mulsanne is one of Bentley’s high end flagship luxury limo models. This limo gets its name from the LeMans. This limousine has been introduced as a replacement for Bentley’s Azure and Brooklands. It is powered by a twin turbocharged 6.8 liter V8 engine that is provided with an automatic 8 speed transmission. This engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 506 and generates a torque of 725 pounds feet.

The 2011 Musanne is available in two different versions, which are the Cabrio and Coupe versions. This limo takes over 9 weeks to be built and is priced at somewhere around $300,000. The styling of the Mulsanne is based on the classic Bentley design which makes it look both tasteful and extravagant. It features the upright crosshatch Bentley grille along with its long bonnet, and the sweeping overhang rear.

The fenders and tall roofline are massive like any limousine model that you will find, but still have an organic sweep because of the hand metal working done at the Bentley plant located in Crewe. Much of the 9 weeks which are required for the construction of the car are spent over its passenger compartment. One of the biggest prerequisites of this Bentley limo has to be its personalization.

According to the marketing and sales chief of Bentley, Stuart McCullough, their customers of Bentley are individualists. He said that it not possible to get to this position in life wherein you can afford such cars without being slightly different. As a result the customers of Bentley Mulsanne will be able to choose between 114 standard paint colors for the exterior as well as between 850 different blends.

The interior leathers of the limo are tanned by the old school method so as to capture a rich aroma which is available in 24 colors or virtually an unlimited pallet consisting of custom dyes. The cabin of this limo is also encircled at the level of the windowsill by a solid wood ring and not that of veneer.

The limo also has a personalized fob which enables a keyless entry as well as a pushbutton ignition which will automatically activate the preset climate, audio and the preferences of driving position and also the massaging and ventilation modes of both the rear and front seats. The instrumentation of the dashboard has been classically understated as well as the controls kept minimum.

There is also an 8 inch screen for navigation as well as data displays and a rearview camera. Apart from that there is also a hard disc of 40 GB and an audio system having 14 speaker.
