The legendary engine will finally be installed in the exclusive version of the Mulsanne 6.75 Edition by Mulliner sedan. This example will be the final one for the Mulsanne model, which is also being discontinued.
L-series engines with a displacement of 6.2 liters first appeared in 1959 on the Bentley S2, a twin of the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II. During production, the engine was updated several times, and the last modernization was timed to coincide with the release of the Mulsanne model: the engine received a variable valve timing system, new turbochargers, and increased peak torque.
The final version of the engine produced 537 hp (1100 Nm) and accelerated the three-ton sedan to 305 km/h, reaching 100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds.
