Bentley has released these sketches of the Mulsanne Vision Concept that it débuted at Pebble Beach this weekend. Sadly, the Volkswagen-owned company wasn’t allowing any photography so, for now, these images will have to do.

Designed to fill the gap left by the démodé Azure Convertible, no doubt the rag-topped Mulsanne will make use of the same 377 kW (505 hp) twin-turbocharged V8 engine as its Saloon-bodied counterpart and enjoy paralleled levels of handcrafted elegance.

“The modern, luxurious, high-tech Mulsanne saloon provides a perfect foundation on which to create the world’s most elegant convertible. The Convertible Concept will extend the appeal of the Mulsanne family, while enhancing the profile of the Bentley brand, particularly in new and emerging markets,” commented Bentley’s Chairman, Wolfgang Dürheimer.
