Bentley introduces Biometric Security Stowage in Bentayga

Bentley is introducing capacitive fingerprint sensor technology with a secure stowage unit in the #bentayga – affording customers even greater peace of mind.

Developed by Bentley’s personal commissioning division, #mulliner, the fingerprint sensor technology has been applied to a high pressure die-cast aluminium secure stowage unit located in the cabin.

This discreet and unobtrusive locker creates the ideal place to stow valuables while at the beach, on the the ski slope or utilising valet parking services.

With two USB ports and an auxiliary socket, it can also be used for connecting and charging mobile devices both inside and outside of the unit, enabling occupants to access Bentayga’s extensive infotainment technology, including Apple CarPlay.

Uday Senapati, Mulliner’s Head of Technical Operations, said: “The #mulliner Biometric Secure Stowage unit is hidden from view. We are incorporating the familiar capacitive fingerprint sensor technology from smartphones that can store multiple fingerprints, allowing the user to control who accesses their valuables.”

Mulliner – Rare by Design

Mulliner exists to respond to the requirements of Bentley’s most discerning customers. Any type of personalisation can be undertaken to create a unique #bentley of individual taste.

Recent examples of Mulliner’s craft include the Mulsanne Grand Limousine, with its one-metre stretch and private-aviation-style seating configuration in the rear cabin; and the #bentayga Field Sports – the ultimate luxury SUV accessory for sporting countryside pursuits – which features a bespoke installation in the rear with all the equipment required for a perfect rural adventure.

A Unique History Spanning 500 Years

Mulliner's roots date back to the 1500's – that's almost 500 years of craftsmanship experience and heritage.

The firm's original focus was creating luxurious horse-drawn carriages. In 1923 #mulliner showcased for the first time work on a #bentley chassis, exhibiting a two-seater 3 Litre #bentley at the Olympia Show in London – just four years after #bentley Motors was founded.

In 1953, #mulliner coachbuilt one of the most iconic Bentleys ever – the
R Type Continental. This model inspired the design of today's Continental GT. In 1957, #mulliner introduced the Continental Flying Spur, a special four-door saloon built on the #bentley Continental chassis. #mulliner officially became part of #bentley Motors in 1959, setting up its workshops in Crewe.
