A Striking and Bespoke Exterior

The first Batur Convertible is finished in a shimmering Opalite exterior, bisected by a black gloss Batur racing stripe with Mandarin pinstripes. This striking design element, seamlessly embedded into the bodywork, runs from the radiator and over the cockpit ‘airbridge’ to the Bentley wings badge. The Batur’s distinctive matrix grille is finished in gloss Beluga with Mandarin orange accents, a theme that is carried through to the five-spoke alloy wheels. This exterior is a true co-creation with the client, reflecting a meticulous attention to detail and a passion for unique design.

The 'One Plus One' Interior Experience

The interior of the Batur Convertible develops the performance theme with a unique ‘one plus one’ design. The driver's cockpit is visually separated from the passenger side by two contrasting colorways. The driver’s seat is in Beluga black hide and Alcantara, while the passenger seat is finished in Linen hide and Alcantara. Mandarin highlights unite the two sides, with contrast stitching and a continuous band of Mandarin hide encircling the driver. Even the interior luggage area behind the seats and the key cases are co-ordinated to match their respective colorways, demonstrating a meticulous level of detail and personalization.

Meticulous Craftsmanship and Detail

The commissioning owner's passion for detail is brought to life by the Mulliner team’s craftsmanship. The fascia and door waistrails feature a satin black engine spin finish, while the center console is in gloss Beluga veneer. The steering wheel is trimmed in Beluga with Linen inner surfaces and Mandarin cross-stitching. Other details include machined titanium features on the gearshift paddles, rotary controls, and air vents. The illuminated outer sill treadplates carry the Batur nameplate and the series number, a testament to its exclusivity.

The Mulliner Coachbuilt Family Legacy

The Batur Convertible is the third car in Mulliner's Coachbuilt family, following the Bacalar barchetta and the Batur coupé. Like its predecessors, each Batur Convertible is a unique creation, co-created with its client through a specialized visualiser. Limited to a small number of cars, each Batur Convertible is as individual as its owner, showcasing the ultimate in open-air grand touring and bespoke automotive artistry. The Batur Convertible Car Zero, with its

Vermilion Gloss over Vermillion Satin finish, will be on display at Monterey Car Week, following its dynamic debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
