Mulliner and a tattoo studio in NYC introduced a new Bentley Bentayga that’s finished in a special wrap only visible with UV lights.
Designed by Bang Bang Tattoo in New York City, this new wrap is truly special.
It’s completely invisible unless you shine an UV light on it.
Then, when you do, a cool, tattoo-esque style design will appear.

The new Bentley Bentayga by Mulliner was designed by a tattoo studio
It’s not every day you get to see a car designed by a tattoo studio.
The new car was designed for Miami Art Week, the same event that gave us the Jaguar Type 00 and a one-off Lamborghini Urus SE dedicated to Miami.
This Bentley Bentayga fits the same ethos.
It’s colorful and definitely different.
The car is hand-painted with serigraphy-style patterns designed by Bang Bang Tattoo.
The wrap is applied to the car but it looks totally normal until you shine the UV light on it, at which point you can see the entire livery.
About Mulliner, the brand’s in-house coachbuilder
Mulliner is the automaker’s in-house coachbuilder, which means they essentially take care of everything from one-off requests from customers to limited-edition models.
The Batur, for example, is designed by Mulliner as the brand’s most powerful car.
But the one-off Bentayga designed with a British fashion icon, sporting a unique color option, was also created and designed by Mulliner.
Bentley has unveiled a long list of different colors and paint options through the years, from the one inspired by Monaco to a Bentayga covered in artwork – and the coachbuilder played a role in each of these vehicles.
So, in a way, Mulliner is also Bentley’s way of showcasing they can do just about anything they want with color and paint.
