ProsConsWhat's New

Super refined and explosively powerful engine with best-in-class acceleration

Not as comfy, luxurious, or exclusive as the Rolls Royce Ghost

No major changes for the 2018 year

A plethora of customization and personalization options

Super-expensive price tag compared to the similarly luxurious Maybach Sedan

Fantastic ride quality and pretty admirable driving dynamics for a car of its size

Options drive up the price even higher

Overview

The 2018 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 $304,670, competing directly with the Rolls-Royce Ghost Sedan, the Porsche Panamera Turbo Executive, and the Mercedes-Benz Maybach S650 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 14 MPG. Bentley offers the Mulsanne in 106 stunning colors, with the Pale Velvet being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

The 2018 Bentley Mulsanne Sedan is an amazing blend of luxury and performance from Bentley. There is only one trim available but a vast array of options available to equip. Not that it really needs optional packages, but we recommend opting for the Comfort Specification that adds some extra luxury features. These include Seat ventilation and massage function to front and rear seats, two rear headrests with adjustable wings, Alcantara headrest cushions and twin loose comfort bolsters.
