Bentley’s flagship model was the Mulsanne sedan, manufactured between 2010 and 2020 and powered by a twin-turbo 6.75-liter V8 (the longest running V8 engine ever, introduced in 1959). The model set to replace it will be completely electric, according to a new report, and its focus will move away from ultimate comfort towards sporty driving.
The model, which will probably not be called Mulsanne any more, will reportedly be the first to arrive out of a series of five new Bentley EVs coming between 2025 and 2030. Autocar says that it will be previewed by some kind of concept next year, and it could reveal Bentley’s plan to turn the flagship model into large coupe.
