Bentley Motors has recentley announced the new Bentley Continental GT
Convertible Galene Edition by Mulliner, inspired by luxury yachts.
Bentley's bespoke commissioning division, Mulliner, has created the ultimate
edition of the Continental GT Convertible in collaboration with British yacht experts,
Princess Yachts, and takes inspiration from yacht design.
Defined by brilliant Glacier White and Sequin Blue hues externally, and inspired
by the clean, confident design lines and materials of yachts internally, the Galene
Edition by Mulliner combines the best elements of an oceanic lifestyle with luxury
convertible motoring.
It is powered by Bentley's refined 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 powerplant, with 507 PS
and 660 Nm and benefits from Bentley's elegant, four-layered retractable hood
which keeps occupants in the same unruffled environment that the hard-top
Continental GT coupe provides.
Designed by the Ocean: Clean, Confident Lines
The external design of the new Continental GT Convertible Galene Edition by
Mulliner captures the iridescent sparkle of crystal clear waters.
Painted in pristine Glacier White, with a matching bodywork kit, the Galene Edition
is specified with lower brightware in Sequin Blue, a timeless detail and elegant
reminder of the life aquatic. A dark blue hood and striking 21” polished Propeller
Wheels complete Mulliner’s external signature on the Galene Edition.
Inspired by Luxury Yachts, Created by Mulliner
The interior of the Continental GT Convertible Galene Edition pays homage to
the classic opulence, finest hand-crafted materials and exquisite details that are
championed both by yachts and Bentley cars.
The seats are in Linen and Portland hides with Camel hand cross stitching, the
door panels are Linen, Portland and Brunel. Linen, Brunel and Camel accentuate
the dashboard, centre console and armrests, whilst the steering wheel is Linen and
Brunel with a Camel 12 o’clock stripe. The detailed headrest embroidery is in Camel
and the Glacier White stowage case is exquisitely lined in Brunel Alcantara.
The Glacier White external paintwork is echoed inside, in the stowage case and
fascia panels, which can be specified with a unique handpainted Jaume Vilardell
illustration of a super yacht alongside the Mulliner script in each car. It also coats the
clock bezel in the Galene Edition, creating an interior space full of light and luxury.
