The feeling that a brand experiences when withdraw a model from the market it may be different. If it has been a successful product es bittersweet, although as a general rule his substitute will be better in everything. On the other hand, if the volume of sales has been reduced, the withdrawal is usually done through the back door and without making any noise. The case that we bring you today is halfway between joy and sorrow, since it is a unique model that for now will not have relief.
We refer to the mythical, stately, elegant and very exclusive Bentley Mulsanne. The great English sedan is a benchmark in terms of luxury and representation capacity, as it perfectly represents the brand's values. Nevertheless, not immune to the passage of time Well, it has been on sale for no less than eleven years. But it is not the only farewell, since with the "death of the Mulsanne" a mythical motor will disappear from the world: the 6.75 liter V8.
The Bentley Mulsanne has been in production since 2009
The first time we saw the Bentley Mulsanne in society was in 2009. Specifically, in the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, dazzling everyone present. In this time, the brand has introduced different facelifts and updates that have kept it fresh against the competition. In addition, the extended wheelbase versions they have been the ones that have had the greatest demand, focusing their attention on the space destined for the passage.
Altogether, in the eleven years that it has been in production More than 7.300 units have left the Crewe factory. To fire him, as he deserves, they publish the images of the penultimate assembled unit. corresponds to a Mulsanne Speed 6.75 V8 Edition by Mulliner finished in a Rose Gold tone contrasting with the color Tungsten. His destiny is to occupy the garage of a client based in the United States.
With everything, the dismissal of the Mulsanne is not a definitive loss for the sector, as Bentley will have the Flying Spur as an access model. For now, what will happen to its generational change is unknown, although the brand has announced that your future is a well kept secret. We bet, whatever it is, that they are working to create a relay with which to surprise their rivals from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz. You don't believe it.
