Aesthetics

Bentley is a company that takes its aesthetics very seriously. It shows in the precision placement of its quilting, the selection of leather from by-products of cattle production, the wood from sustainably managed forests and the ingenious patterns that are etched on its levers. As you approach a vehicle like the Continental GT W12, its stunning design is accentuated by carefully selected lighting.

The Continental GT is the most sophisticated open-top Bentley ever created. The rear of the tonneau in the Continental GT, for example, featured the biggest piece of dark-stained Burr Walnut veneer that was book-matched. Similarly, the electrically-operated glass sunroof and champagne cooler that incorporated hand-blown and hand-cut lead crystal bottles marked a new benchmark in luxury and innovation.

It is this unique design, quality and attention to detail that have established Bentley as the most sought-after automobile brand. The firm continues to push the boundaries by utilizing the most advanced technology and manufacturing techniques, such as the introduction of an instrument cluster with digital technology, an electric tilt-opening rear glass sunroof and a crafted docking station for Apple iPads and electrochromic "smart" glass that can be changed from transparent to opaque by the button.

Bentley celebrated its 100th anniversary in the year 2019 a century after it was established. The marque, currently owned by Volkswagen independently following years of tense relations with BMW and BMW, had planned a series of special launches and events to mark the occasion. Before pandemic planning took the spotlight, the marque was hosting a variety of special events and launches planned to celebrate this milestone event.

Design

bentley continental key fob is known for its extravagant and lavish automobiles and keys, but even keys are designed to stand out. The Bentayga key is made from sterling silver. It features the large 'B' symbol that tells everyone you're a Bentley. The key is also embossed with the dates 1919 and 2019 to mark the company’s centenary.

The Mulsanne was redesigned and redeveloped by Bentley Mulliner to be the ultimate Grand Touring car. It features two opposing sets of rear seats inspired by the luxury of private aviation offering passengers unbeatable comfort and security. A custom heating, near ventilation and air conditioning system has been designed to give each passenger the ideal climate control setting.

In addition to a suite of elegantly executed styling revisions as well as a suite of stylishly executed styling revisions, the Mulsanne is powered by a twin-turbocharged 6.75-litre W12 engine that is capable of producing 560bhp and 479lb-ft of torque. This colossal power is complemented by a new suspension architecture that delivers Bentley's famously quiet ride.

Bentley has launched a new specification for cars made after the year 2019 in order to celebrate its centenary. It is known as the Centenary Specification. This includes cross-stitching and contrast stitching in Centenary Gold thread throughout the cabin. The Bentley Wings are embroidered with Centenary Gold on the headrests as well as the seats and other parts of the car. This is a great way to celebrate the occasion. A custom Bentley key case is also included in the Centenary Specification, making the Bentley experience all-inclusive.

Function

The Bentley Mulsanne key has an open button on the trunk and another which starts the car. It also has a switch that can activate the parking break. There is a knob to fold and unfold the mirrors when parking in tight spots. This feature helps you get into and out of your car.

The key is made of vegetable tanned leather. It takes over two days to craft each one. The key is cut by hand, then shaped, sewed and sealed, then polished to create a high-end result. It is strong compact and fits the Bentley key perfectly. Its design is similar with the Volkswagen Phaeton's large car key, yet it feels more heavy and premium.

It also comes with Secure-A-Key, which helps prevent theft of keys with no key. This device is put into the remote control fob and it shuts it down in the event that the key isn't used for a short period of time. It stops thieves from transmitting the key's frequency to other devices that can be used to open and start the car.

Bentley's distinctive style reflects the company's values of excellence in craftsmanship and engineering expertise. It also includes cutting-edge technology. The headquarters in Crewe are home to more than four hundred employees who are responsible for the design, development and production of Bentley vehicles. They apply their skills that have been passed through generations to current automotive technologies. This is British manufacturing at its best.

Personalisation

Bentley's Mulliner division lets customers design their own vehicle. The guests sit at a collection of images referred to as "mood stations" and pick a set of photos ranging from picturesque landscapes to sporting events that will inspire them. Every time a choice is made, the pattern that emerges is the model of the Bentley, as well as the color and style preferences for the custom Bentley.

The configuration that is created is stored on individual R.F.I.D.-enabled keys that are then presented to the guests in a handmade key case. The keys can also be outfitted with Bentley Muliner Personalised Welcome Lamps, which illuminate the door-opening path with the owner's name and/or emblem as they approach the vehicle.

bentley key holder estimates that it takes around 500 man-hours in order to create and put together the typical Mulsanne. The reluctance to embrace modern technology is the main factor to this laborious task. Instead of using a machine to place the perfectly matched leather seats workers at the Crewe factory do it by hand. Drivers are required to park their vehicles manually, instead of using the built-in sensors to guide them into perpendicular and parallel spots.

During the event, Bentley displayed its Mulliner personalization capabilities with one particular example of the Mulsanne W.O. Edition, which pays homage to founder William Osler Bentley. The 100 limited edition cars come with the key, which displays an original 1930 8 Litre crankshaft.
