Bentley Bentayga Hybrid Built In Collab With Whiskey Brand The Macallan
by AutoExpert | 6 August, 2021
Bentley has announced a collaboration with The Macallan, a Scottish whisky producer. The Bentayga will be spotted on the distiller's estate, chauffeuring VIP guests in style.
Macallan property and the beautiful ecosystem surrounding the distillery motivated the design of Bentayga, according to Bentley. The color is a shade of green called Viridian by the carmaker, and it was picked to complement the ecosystem's diversity.
To represent nature's absence of chrome, all of the external brightwork has been coated in gloss black, and the car rides on 22-inch Mulliner Driving Specification Black Painted and Bright Machined wheels.
Porpoise and Cumbrian Green skins are used on the inside, which contrasts with the Liquid Amber veneer accent. That particular wood was selected as a homage to The Macallan's amber whisky.
The Macallan's Easter Elchies House mark is also featured on the seats to reflect the estate's 18th-century Highland Manor residence. Because it will be used as a touring car, the wood trim in front of the front passenger has a "THE MACALLAN" insert.
The themes of the whisky maker can also be found on the four treadplates. Lastly, when you open the door, the Easter Elchies House mark is projected on the ground by the LED puddle lights.
Bentley Bentayga Hybrid for Macallan will be powered entirely by renewable energy from Scotland's Wardlaw Wood Wind Farm and will be refilled at a newly erected charging station on the property.
Bentley wants to produce another Macallan in nearly identical style, but this time it will be the Flying Spur hybrid.
