BENTLEY designers have created ‘Design Theme by Mulliner' available exclusively on Supersports models.

Now for the first time on any Bentley, the pinnacle ‘Design Theme by Mulliner', introduces a paint fade running from one side of the car to the other.

A highlight colour defines the driver's side and blends across the body into a darker tone on the opposite side. A single off-centre highlight stripe runs from front to rear, aligned with the passenger seat.

Bentley says the design emphasises the driver-focused nature of Supersports and reinforces its exclusivity.

The theme is always centred around the driver. Finishing exterior details include a number eight to the front grille, and an accent pinstripe to the carbon diffusers, fender blades and sills.

Three specially curated themes - applied to both the exterior and interior - are available:

Two-seat only, it completes the focus on driver engagement that is the Bentley says is the mission statement of the car.

For the most unique design theme offered, the interior adopts a two-tone layout, with the brighter colour surrounding the driver and the darker tone reserved for the passenger. The interior includes the Full Leather Specification, with door inserts and seats featuring a unique Supersports perforation pattern. The contrast gear lever matches the driver's seat, detailed with contrast stitching to the dashboard and headrests.

The Design Theme by Mulliner has been carefully curated with a selection of exclusive paint combinations chosen by Bentley designers. Customers interested in alternative or bespoke paint finishes can consult their Bentley retailer, with Mulliner being able to explore additional possibilities.

The price of the special finish is still to be revealed on the £344,000 car.
