- Bentley Mulliner Studio has created five location-themed special edition cars as part of their “Extraordinary Journeys Collection.”

Bentley’s bespoke studio, Mulliner, has unveiled the Extraordinary Journeys Collection — a limited-edition series of Bentayga SUVs inspired by global travel destinations that evoke well-being, tranquility, and adventure.
Yes, if you ever went on vacation and thought, “Wow, I wished my Bentley Bentayga reminded me of this trip,” you can now enjoy gridlock while blissfully reminiscing on happier times. That’s provided that your dreamy holiday destination was one of the five selected by Bentley to be carefully distilled with elaborately chosen colors, trim, and materials.

In truth, the destinations, namely New Mexico, Scandinavia, China, New Zealand, and the UK, have each been taken from Bentley’s own “Extraordinary Journeys” travel program. Each year, Bentley offers customers a series of curated travel experiences, ensuring travelers soak up the best in local cuisine, design, and wellness.
The special edition Bentaygas has been designed to replicate each destination, showing off Mulliner’s customizing capabilities. New Mexico embraces the warmth of the region with Amber over Burnt Oak duo-tone paintwork and body-colored wheels. Inside, there’s upholstery trimmed in Saddle, Camel, and Coral, with Copper Stone veneer, all of which are designed to evoke memories of the Sangre de Cristo mountains.
Scandinavia gets a Portofino exterior paired with Dark Sapphire wheels, while Mulliner White and Imperial Blue leather swathes the interior surfaces. Bentley has attempted to recreate the kind of feelings of sustainable architecture and crystal-clear fjords that have been associated with the Lagom lifestyle. To that end, you also get light blue Stratos accents, contrast stitching, and Slate Stone open-pore veneer.
Continuing a nature-centric theme, a China-based Bentayga embraces some of the country’s natural wonders, including the Alashan Gobi, Yellow River, and dunes of the Tengri desert. Mulliner’s customization department does so with Arabica exterior paint and Pale Brodgar silver wheels. At the same time, the interior features linen-colored hide with Burnt Oak, Odyssean tweed accents, Gold Greenstone veneer, and Piano Burnt Oak veneer.
New Zealand’s car is dedicated to the Extraordinary Journeys tour of the South Island, which incorporates the Ahuriri Valley, Lake Tekapo, and the Southern Alps. The interior features Jeera Green Stone veneer, while the leather is colored in Portland main hide and secondary Burnt Oak, Highland Hare accents, and dark green and bronze contrast stitching.
Finally, Bentley’s home market, the UK, features its own exhibition-themed rendition. It embraces the traditional British Racing Green that has been plastered on past Bentley racecars, although there are a lot of other greens within the package. The concept this time takes its inspiration from the Lake District, which the journey passes through as it travels from Crewe to the Macallan whiskey distillery in Speyside, Scotland.
