Bentley has unveiled another masterpiece with the creation of its new bespoke Bentley Batur convertible, which it describes as the ‘art of curation’ and ‘the power of four.’
This luxury car has been created by the bespoke Mulliner division, and it pays homage to the stunning coachbuilt luxury cars of the past.
The bespoke Batur convertible features a few first-time features, and it is just one of the coachbuilt cars to join a growing collection ordered by this particular customer.
It’s proof, if it were needed, that the British company is not afraid to push the boat out and create something unique.

What makes the Bentley Batur convertible special?
The car in question is the Batur convertible #4, and it belongs to client Sonia Breslow.
She has good taste, as it is a truly exceptional-looking piece of automotive engineering.
There are some interesting firsts within its design.
It has the first tri-tone scheme using a customer’s own colours.
Then there is the first color-matched bespoke roof and client-designed animated welcome lamp.
Plus, it also features the first application of 3D-printed platinum from the car manufacturer.
The colors are a particular standout asset of the design.
The main color is Breslow Blue, while extra exterior detailing uses the beautiful Midnight Breslow Blue.
Under the sleek exterior, though, it has familiar British power.
Massive power sits under the hood
Sitting under the hood of the Batur is a huge W12 engine, a 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged unit producing 740hp.
The engine is hand-assembled, adding another element of cool to the whole build.
Sonia Breslow is lucky enough to have several luxury cars in her collection.
Her collection also includes the Blower Continuation Series and the Speed Six Continuation Series.
Plus, she also has the first of the modern era coachbuilt Bentleys, a Bacalar.
Of her new Batur convertible, Sonia said, “When I have a car like this Batur, I don’t plan on selling it in my lifetime – it’s my forever car.”
It’s clear this is a car that already means a lot to her.
With the large grille, blue paintwork, and stunning interior, this Bentley Batur convertible really does stand out.
No wonder many still view the British brand as the king of luxury automotive travel.
