Bentley plans to introduce Mulsanne-based Azure convertible

Posted in Bentley, Cars / By /

According to Insideline Bentley will introduce a new Azure convertible that will be based on the rather odd-looking Mulsanne. The top-less Azure is expected to be launched next summer and is likely to be a 2-door with a fabric roof.

When we say the word ‘based’ we also mean that the Azure will carry the Mulsanne’s front end as well and I am not sure if thats the right thing to do. Motivation is expected to come from a 6.75 litre V8 with twin turbos that is capable of producing 505hp and a massive 1020Nm of torque.

The first ever Bentley Azure was launched back in 1995 and the four seater convertible was based on the Continental. Pictured above is the 2009 Bentley Azure T.

    At least this not-so-good-looking Mulsanne is a real Bentley rather than not-so-Bentley-but-very-VW Continental GT and Continental Flying Spur
