Bentley has unveiled the Bentley Continental GT Speed Ombre by Mulliner, a breathtaking showcase of craftsmanship and innovation. Revealed at The Quail during Monterey Car Week, this one-off creation takes bespoke automotive artistry to a new level.
Ombre by Mulliner: A Paint Finish Like No Other
The Ombre finish is one of Bentley’s most complex paint offerings yet. It blends two colours seamlessly across the car’s body, requiring over 56 hours of meticulous handcrafting. This technique is now available in three curated colour combinations through Bentley’s Mulliner division.
A Precision Process
The process begins with the application of contrasting colours at the front and rear. Skilled paint technicians then create the fade by hand, adjusting in real-time to the way each paint behaves. Every application is unique, but the result is always a flawless, gradual transition that is visually perfect.
The Continental GT Speed as a Canvas
The debut model wears a Topaz-to-Windsor Blue fade, following the rear haunch line to dramatic effect. Even the 22-inch ten-spoke wheels match the body panels , Topaz at the front and Windsor Blue at the rear , creating a cohesive, striking profile.
Interior to Match the Exterior
Mulliner’s Bespoke Studio extended the Ombre theme inside. The cabin starts with Topaz hide on the front seats, steering wheel, and dashboard, blending into deep Beluga tones at the rear. Dragonfly accents highlight piping and stitching, while Satin Beluga painted veneers and the Dark Chrome Interior Specification add a modern, tactile touch.
Luxury Beyond Paint
The Continental GT Speed Ombre by Mulliner comes equipped with Bentley’s Rotating Display and the Naim for Bentley premium audio system. Every detail, from stitching to treadplates, is designed to harmonise with the paintwork.
Now Available to Order
Following its Monterey debut, the Ombre finish is now available for order through Bentley’s global retailer network. Each creation will be a unique interpretation of Bentley’s colour artistry, ensuring no two cars are exactly alike.
Summary
The Bentley Continental GT Speed Ombre by Mulliner is more than a luxury grand tourer , it is a rolling piece of art. With its intricate 56-hour paint process, colour-matched interior, and attention to detail, it represents the pinnacle of bespoke automotive design.
