The Bite Magazine - Spring/Summer 2025 - Issue 37

bitecars crafted in carbon fibre or a new, sustainable Natural Fibre com- posite. Its exterior brightware can be any mix of light and dark, satin, gloss or even titanium. A graduated contrast colour can be applied to the front grille for a vibrant ombre effect. Batur sits on unique 22-inch wheels, with the ‘standard’ option painted in Black Crystal and then brightly machined and pol- ished. In contrast to the bespoke Bonneville Pearlescent Silver model unveiled at Monterey in California, a darker option com- bines dark gloss faces with satin spokes. Customers can also choose to paint-match the wheels to the body with or without a contrast finish or choose a different contrast colour. The bodywork was painted in Black Crystal, underscored by carbon fibre front splitters, side skirts, and rear diffuser. The front featured an exceptional art grille with the main matrix fin- ished in Gloss Dark Titanium, accented with contrast chevrons in a horizontal ombre pattern flowing from Hyperactive Or- ange in the centre and gradually darkening to the sides to Black Crystal. The ‘endless bonnet’ line and 22-inch wheels finished in Satin Titanium paint had the spokes in Satin Dark Titanium to match the grille. The two-seat interior space inside the cabin is designed for ulti- mate personalisation and long-distance grand touring. Inspired by Bacalar’s successful interior design, Batur builds upon the core elements of its predecessor’s cabin design with new sus- tainable luxury features. Several sustainable interior materials are available, including low-carbon leather sourced from Scot- land, sustainable tonnage leather from Italy in five different col- ours, and Dynamic, an alternative suede-like sustainable mate- rial to leather.
