Bentley has announced its fastest and most powerful production model to date - the new Bentley Continental Supersports. Similarly, its soft-top sibling - the Continental Supersports Convertible - is the fastest four-seat convertible in the world, despatching the century sprint in 3.9 seconds; on its way to a 330km/h top speed.
Bentley's mighty W12 engine, redeveloped for the Supersports with new high-performance turbos and engine hardware, and a torque vectoring system create a Continental Supersports as agile as it is powerful. Meanwhile, unique styling cues inside and out give the new model a sharpened athletic appearance highlighting its performance potential.
As well as offering supercar pace and a highly focused driving experience, there is no compromise in the refined nature of the Continental's ride quality. This fusion of extremes in luxury and performance make the Supersports the ultimate iteration of a model that has come to define and dominate the grand touring genre. These extensive engine revisions result in an increase of 79bhp and 217Nm over the 2009 Supersports model - a 10 percent power-to-weight and 25 percent torque-to-weight ratio improvement.
