Bentley Shows Off its Coachbuilding Skills

Bentley Motors is releasing an early preview of the processes, technologies and coachbuilding skills required to create the car manufacturer's new flagship. It requires 125 man-hours to create the body of a pre-production Mulsanne at the new 7,500m2 Assembly Centre. The bare metal shells of high-strength steels and aluminium are assembled using techniques that range from industry-leading adhesives through to hand-crafted brazing skills. As Bentley prepares to produce the very first customer cars later this year, the body assembly team are undertaking a range of exhaustive tests on the first bodies being developed in pre-production.
