Overview

The 2015 Bentley Mulsanne Sedan makes for an excellent contender in the fullsize luxury sedan segment. With a single trim on offer, the Bentley Mulsanne has a base MSRP of $303,700, competing directly with the Rolls-Royce Ghost Sedan, the Porsche Panamera Turbo S Executive, and the Mercedes-Benz Maybach S600 Sedan. Only a 6.8L twin-turbocharged V8 engine is offered, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 505 horsepower and 752 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 4.8 seconds, the Mulsanne maintains a combined fuel economy of 13 MPG. Bentley offers the Mulsanne in 107 stunning colors, with the Midnight Emerald being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

The 2015 Bentley Mulsanne Sedan is an amazing blend of luxury and performance from Bentley. There is only one trim available but a vast array of personalization options available. We recommend adding the Comfort Specification which adds some extra luxury features. These include comfort headrests to the rear seats, twin footrests to the rear cabin, and twin loose cushions to the rear cabin.
