729-HP W-12–Powered Bentley Batur Is Last Stop before EVs
Based on the Continental GT, the sleek bespoke coupe from Bentley's Mulliner division will cost nearly $2 million and be produced in a limited edition of only 18.
Bentley's limited-edition Batur will be limited to 18 coupes, based on the Continental GT but with all-new bodywork.
The Batur gets a 729-hp version of Bentley’s long-lived W-12 engine.
As is the norm these days among new-car reveals, this one is showing the future design direction of forthcoming EV models.
It might seem odd to be looking at a car powered by a 729-hp W-12 engine and thinking about EVs, but that is what Bentley is ordering us to do with the Batur, a limited-run coupe that has just been unveiled at Monterey Car Week. Because, while the Batur is still powered by sweet, sweet hydrocarbons, we're told that it showcases the design direction the British luxury brand is planning to take as it develops its first full EV, which is due to arrive in 2025.
