Bentley Mulliner - Bentley's bespoke commissioning division - is now offering an elegant and sophisticated door trim option in tweed for the Flying Spur, Continental GT and Bentayga, providing customers with even greater choice when specifying their new vehicle.

For admirers of authentic British heritage and those passionate about the use of sustainable materials, the four contemporary tweed patterns add a new, high quality texture to the near-limitless range of customisation options showcased in the Mulliner Personal Commissioning Guide.

The introduction of tweed as an option for the complete product range gives customers the opportunity to specify an even more unique finish for their vehicle's interior. The tactile woven wool finish to the doors transforms the energy of the cabin into a robust yet tranquil environment.

Selected to compliment the interior design, and natural colour harmony with many of the leather hides already throughout the cabin, four different tweeds are initially available.

Cheltenham, with its countryside greens, offers a more traditional choice for customers whereas Glen Plaid-Tolsta Beach, named after the shores of the rugged Outer Hebrides, makes a confident statement with its bold check pattern. Providing a more subtle, contemporary choice, the Charcoal and Sand Herringbone tweeds complement dark and light interiors respectively on the two-door and four-door Grand Tourers.

The introduction of tweed to the list of personalisation options continues Bentley's progress towards the greater use of sustainable materials in the production of its luxury vehicles. This is in line with its Beyond100 strategy, which outlined plans for the company to become a global leader in sustainable luxury mobility.

The tweed being used by Bentley in its Grand Tourers is sourced from the globally reputed Lovat Mill. Located in the picturesque Scottish Borders town of Hawick, the mill goes to extraordinary lengths to ensure that that its tweeds are produced in the most ethical and environmentally friendly ways.

Covering the vast array of ways in which Mulliner's talented craftspeople can fashion the most individual Bentleys, the guide has been created to inspire customers as they develop their own personal designs, while leveraging the experience already gained from previous commissions.

While the tweed fabrics offer a new choice for customers, it is not the first time that tweed has been incorporated into Bentley designs. In collaboration with Savile Row tailors, Huntsman, Mulliner created the 'Sportsman' Bentayga, utilising the Peck 62 tweed on the passenger and driver fascias.

In the Continental GT Equestrian Edition, Mulliner used distinctive diamond quilted tweed fabrics for the door inlays and rear quarter panels.

The Bacalar incorporated grey tweed to the sides of the centre console, flowing across the instrument panel and continuing into the door interiors, surrounding each occupant with a selection of materials and textures. The theme continued with a tweed detailing on the seats and also featured as part of the bespoke luggage set.
