The New Fully Electric Bentley is So Powerful You Might Need to Adjust the Settings.

The Coachella Valley has long been the perfect sun-drenched weekend getaway for those escaping the smog of Los Angeles or the cold of Northern cities. The Colors of Inspiration Collection: A New Era of Bentley. To celebrate everything bright, happy, and fun about visiting the desert - from its hotels and swimming pools to its golf courses and blue sky - Desert European Motorcars has created the Colors of Inspiration collection for Bentley Rancho Mirage. Each one of these very special Bentleys in the Colors of Inspiration Collection has gorgeous exterior paint colors matched with exciting fun and leisure-inspired pinstriping in bright hues such as “Hyperactive” orange, “Vibrant” Yellow, “Turquoise” Blue, and “Bespoke” White. The bright color accents lend a dramatic effect set against more classic exterior paint colors such as Arctic White, Satin Anthracite Grey, Beluga Black, and Cambrian Grey. “The idea was to try to build some cool cars with accent colors that accentuate the younger hip and cool generation that now comes to Coachella and Palm Springs,” explains Jason Cammisa, campus director at Desert European Motorcars, which oversees nine luxury car dealerships in Rancho Mirage that are part of Indigo Auto Group. “We wanted to do a contemporary twist with young fun colors accenting what people feel when they come to the Coachella Valley. They are happy, young, and vibrant hues.” The Colors of Inspiration Collection Catapults Bentley Into the Future of The Automotive World. Cammisa himself worked with Bentley Mulliner to commission the exclusive Colors of Inspiration Bentleys in a dazzling array of finishes, materials, and exclusive features. Inside they are filled with a dizzying portfolio of finishes, materials, and features and all the luxury amenities you’d expect of a Bentley. The collection comprises a limited edition of three Bentley models – the Continental, Flying Spur, and Bentayga - in colors and finishes that recall the “fun and happy” vibe of the desert. The Highlighter Yellow trim, for instance, seems to harken back to 1980s spring break in Palm Springs, while the Tiffany Blue trim lends a more classic Hollywood/mid-century modern vibe. Check out: The Bentley Bentayga Hybrid SUV is part of a Lineup that Will be Fully Hybridized by 2025 and Fully Electric Palm Springs and the greater Coachella Valley have always been a place of leisure starting as far back as the 1930s when Hollywood stars began flocking to the desert paradise for quick weekend getaways from movie sets. Bentley: Luxury and Power Driven, Since then, the area has continued to attract film industry types, presidents, and captains of industry and others from all over the world who are drawn to the sunshine, clean air, world-class golf courses, and laid-back poolside lifestyle. “The idea with Colors of Inspiration Collection was to try and build some cool cars with accent colors that reflect the younger generation that is coming here now,” Cammisa says. Three models are offered in four color combinations for both the Bentley eight-cylinder engine model and the12-cylinder engine model, he noted. “They are in essence one of a kind because you are never going to see more than one of these exact cars. So if someone wants the black one with bespoke white trim, then only one buyer gets the eight-cylinder and one buyer gets the 12 cylinder.” The models have already started arriving at Bentley Rancho Mirage. The brightly colored pinstriping will be shown as an accent on the carbon body exterior of the car as well as on the stitching throughout the interior. “We came up with the accent colors by looking at the spectrum of the rainbow that is the ‘hot’ colors and ended up choosing highlighter yellow, cool orange, and tiffany blue,” Cammisa explains. “I think with Bentley specifically - and with these kinds of spec builds - you can attract anyone from their 20s to their 80s. The Colors of Inspiration Models are Fresh and Unique from Any Other Car and Bentley. “They are fresh and unique enough to where they stand apart from other cars and other Bentleys but they are not too in your face crazy while being drive-able and fun.” “And they will be arriving just in time for Coachella.” The Colors of Inspiration collection demonstrates what can be achieved through the Mulliner personal commissioning process, where the customer, retailer, and Mulliner’s design team collaborate to create truly unique cars. Mulliner’s association with Bentley, in fact, stretches back to the earliest days of the company. Colors of Inspiration Collection was Great Success Thanks to Mulliner's Key Role. Now Bentley’s known as an in-house personal commission division, Mulliner plays a key role in defining the company’s future design DNA, as demonstrated to stunning effect by the extraordinary new Batur coupé. From special features and finishes to unique and limited-edition coach-built vehicles, the Mulliner name continues to represent the ultimate in Bentley design and craftsmanship. Bentley customers are showing an increasing appreciation of the individuality that a Mulliner feature can bring to their chosen automobile. In recent years the percentage of Bentleys with specific Mulliner features has continued to grow. The demand for Mulliner special paint finishes has more than doubled; and the number of Mulliner personal commissions, bringing an individual vision to life in the Mulliner atelier, has tripled. Regional teams are also taking advantage of the unique ability to curate bespoke collections, specific to their own customers' interests and passions. Inspired by the location. Created by Bentley.

It might have to be re-named Kardashian Gray. The paint color Kim Kardashian recently chose for her luxury cars is causing a giant stir in pop culture media. That's because she shelled out roughly $100,000 to paint three of her luxury cars – including a Lamborghini and a Rolls-Royce - a hue called “ghost gray” so the vehicles would match her mansion. The Skims founder hired an outfit called Platinum Motorsports in Los Angeles to carry out the work, sources told the media. The so-called “ghost gray” color is said to be a “very specific Rolls-Royce gray.” And it wasn’t easy: Each car took about a month to complete due to the fact that each of the vehicles had to be taken dis-assembled in order to be sprayed. more Among the three cars Kardashian had painted: a Lamborghini Urus and a Rolls-Royce Ghost. Kim’s budget may be anything but austere but her aesthetic is quite clean. She loves to design her homes in neutral tones and keep in the interiors modern and simple. And now her cars match her abode! In a new video for Vogue, the reality star gave a tour of clean-lined mega-home and also gave viewers a look at her newly painted vehicles. During the interview, she said, “I've always been a car girl, I love cars, and I really wanted something different. I wanted my cars to blend in with my house which is grey. So I did all grey cars, instead of my typical matte silver, which I used to do. I picked out my Lamborghini Urus with a kit on the front, Rolls-Royce Ghost with a crystal lady….I love everything about it.” The Lamborghini, apparently, was the hardest to complete due to the intricate body kit on the front of the car. Interested in staying on top of the color trends for luxury cars? Here’s some info that might help you make that important decision for your car's exterior: Car & Driver is reporting that according to research by PPG, Kardashian was right on trend because grayscale shades – ranging from white to black - make up 3/4ths of paint colors on vehicles sold in the United States. Furthermore, blue, the next most popular color, took up about 9 percent of market share. But you might notice that today's automotive advertising is filled with brighter colors, a trend that has been making gains the past few years. You might have admired the Audi Q8's Dragon Orange Metallic. BMW’s compact M cars might catch your eye in Sao Paulo Yellow. Lamborghini, of course, will allow you to customize any portion of their Huracán or Aventador with just about any color you choose. Or maybe an even rarer color is your thing. In fact, just about any color is possible thanks to Porsche’s Paint to Sample program. It will cost you thousands of dollars but you can choose from a catalog of old colors and apply any of them to your new Porsche. Even better: If you can’t find that exact hue, the people at Porsche will create a color custom. And it will cost you twice as much. But it can be done! For that unusual buyer, Aston Martin and McLaren offer a wide selection of bold paint schemes, including bright lime yellow hues. Need a custom car color that's even more on the wild side? Car & Driver points to the bronzy palette of colors available for the McLaren 765LT. If you’re drawn to warmth you can choose Papaya Spark, which will attract eyeballs wherever you go. When it comes to stately elegance nothing beats a Bentley and with each passing year the available color schemes are becoming less staid. Think “light-blue Jetstream II Metallic” paint color for your exterior. You will create a buzz where every you go without sacrificing one ounce of luxury.

Massage Seats, Champagne Coolers, and Personal Climate Control? When it Comes to the Most Luxurious Back Seat Experience in a Car the Answer is "Of Course!" Did you know that there is a whole class of cars where everything that matters is happening in the back seat? In these rarified rolling worlds of luxury - usually a chauffeur-driven experience - the champagne is flowing and perfectly cooled, automatically adjustable seats are standard and everyone can kick back and relax with plenty of legroom. You'll also find mini-fridges, massage seats, personalized climate control, heated seats, and exquisite finishes on every surface. more Most of us just drive our cars to get from one place to another. For others, their car is an opulent haven where they are hidden from the fast-paced world outside and treated to every comfort and convenience. The latter wouldn’t dream of owning a car that lacked a refrigerator just for champagne or seats with a deep-tissue massage feature. With that said, let’s take a look at some of the most luxurious back seats, from often chauffeur-driven cars. The cars where the back-seat is the place to be. Rolls-Royce Ghost The Ghost is considered one of the most luxurious vehicles in the world. And the perfectly appointed interior, including out-of-this-world massage seats, is just one of the many reasons. The Ghost’s massage seats will help to relax all four passengers if that’s what they want. According to Motor Biscuit: “The executive seat is the best-equipped massage, however, as the up/down waves that go from the top to the bottom of the occupant’s back are complemented by a shoulder-to-lumbar massage given by a separate set of air cushions.” Other features you'll love inside the Ghost: -A customizable Rolls-Royce Starlight Headliner that gives you a beautiful sky of stars as you’re driving along, creating a majestic environment. -A beautiful analog clock inside the open-pore wood. -A champagne cooler that comes with the finest crystal glasses. -The classic Rolls-Royce umbrella that fits into the rear seats. You can even get an umbrella specially designed for the 2021 Rolls-Royce Ghost interior! Rolls-Royce Phantom This one is considered by many to be the most luxurious car on the market today. Everything is trimmed to perfection and the layout will provide you with non-stop comfort and amenities. Even among luxury automobiles, the Rolls-Royce Phantom is considered the top of the heap. The cabin is exceptionally roomy, luxurious, and comfortable, filled with the finest leathers, woods, metals, and fabrics – all carefully chosen to deliver an aura of opulence and beauty. The interior is a sonic haven perfectly tuned for quiet conversation, listening to music, and simply enjoying the sound of silence. Even those pesky potholes can’t detract from this silky-smooth ride thanks to a custom pothole-spotting camera that helps the suspension adapt to road imperfections in real-time. Inside the Phantom, you are bathed in your own luxurious cocoon – giving you quiet space for a chat with a friend as you float softly through time and space. Other things we love about the Phantom experience: -The interior can be tailored to your tastes and adorned with a myriad of luxuries and a custom artwork dashboard. -The rear-hinged coach doors open to allow graceful and dramatic arrivals and departures. -Rear seat passengers are treated to an array of possible luxuries including deep-pile carpeted floor mats, power-adjustable seats with massage, and a refrigerated console. -The highest quality tanned and stretched leather is a sumptuous backdrop for your personal imprint – with the help of some master craftspeople. -You enjoy a celestial canopy with Phantom’s iconic Starlight Headliner made up of 1,344 individually placed fiber-optic stars that shine through tiny perforations in Phantom’s leather roof lining. Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended Wheelbase This version of the Phantom ups the ante in terms of spaciousness and comfort. The Phantom Extended Wheelbase model adds 8.6 extra inches to this already spacious automobile. That means even more legroom for you and your passengers. And you won't lack luxury because you are surrounded by gold accents and the finest leathers and woods. In fact, this interior is more like a moving palace or palatial yacht on wheels. Other features we love about the Phantom Extended Wheelbase: -The extended limousine-like rear-seat legroom of the Phantom Extended provides a welcome relief to you and your guests after a night out. -Meticulous attention to detail along with stunning design creates Phantom Extended's sumptuous interior. -The suite of Phantom Extended is a rarified sanctuary, crafted to the exacting vision of its owner - completed by the celestial canopy of iconic Rolls-Royce Starlight Headliner. -With one touch, the electrochromic glass morphs from transparent to fully opaque and creates total privacy from the front cabin while frequency-specific insulation gives you state-of-the-art levels of acoustic separation. -Rear-hinged coach doors open to allow graceful and dramatic arrivals and departures. -Cutting-edge technology is discreetly placed throughout the cabin to ensure nothing detracts from the sheer pleasure of driving or riding in this automobile. -The Privacy Suite transforms the rear cabin into a haven of solitude where the conversation does not reach the front part of the cabin. Honorable mentions: BMW 7 Series This vehicle may be known for looking gorgeous and turning heads - but the interior is where it's all happening for you and your passengers. It's covered in high-end finishes, leather, and other materials that will make you feel like you've fallen into the lap of luxury. And everyone in the car enjoys instant access to high-tech infotainment consoles and a touch-screen panel for interior lighting as well as personalized seat customization. The automatic and adjustable mood lights help you set the tone for the evening. Moreover, the passenger seat can fold all the way up so you can stretch your legs straight out and snooze. Audi A8 L The footrests are simply to die for and you also get reading lights that each come with their own dimmer. The Audi A8 L's 35-degree reclining seats are so much like a bed that you might be tempted to get some shut-eye on longer drives. (As long as someone else is doing the driving). Each passenger gets a TV and access to a comfy middle armrest with storage and controls for the interior climate. And what would Audi's largest sedan be without a massage feature in its seats? Massage, heating, and ventilation are, of course, available for all four seats. Porsche Panamera Choose the Executive Package for the Porsche Panamera and you might think you've landed in heaven (or an opulent spa). Not only are the built-in headrests perfect for easing neck tension but the massage option is one of the best on the market. The two rear seats are available with adjustable power and an electric backrest adjustment, cushion length adjustment, and lumbar support. You can also choose a Sport Seat design with raised side bolsters, ensuring the most comfort. If your passengers are feeling cold they can also turn on the heated seat feature and relax with the comfort headrests. Oh, and there's plenty of legroom. Bentley Flying Spur The Bentley Flying Spur is built on luxury giving you the best possible high-end experience on the road. For starters the rear seat headrest pillows are uber soft and supple, not to mention supportive to the neck. If that's not enough there's available massage seats for every seat. You and your passengers enjoy reclining rear seats, massagers (of course!), and access to a touchscreen with climate controls and any media, games, internet access you might desire. Rolls-Royce Cullinan This Rolls-Royce ultra-luxury SUV shares many of the features of the Phantom. It also includes a Viewing Suite that is automatically deployed at the touch of a button. That means that two rear-facing, tastefully contemporary leather chairs, and a cocktail table emerge as if from a cloud to help you take in the views as you enjoy some champagne and caviar.
