If you couldn't wait to have another look at
Bentley's most powerful car ever, this short video will even throw in a few W12
gurgles. The footage comes courtesy of the SellerieCimes YouTube channel, and
shows the new Continental Supersports being driven carefully towards Bentley's
stand in Geneva.
The car is also wearing some type of protective tape
across the body, on the rear wing, rear spoiler, bonnet and even on the wheels,
in order to protect those lightweight 21" forged alloys.
What makes the new Continental
Supersports not just their fastest ever model but also the world's fastest and
most powerful four-seater, is the updated W12 unit, producing 710 PS and
no fewer than 1,017 Nm of torque.
In a straight line, these figures should allow a
0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 3.5 seconds, followed by a top
speed of 336 km/h. What makes these numbers so impressive, aside from
the obvious, is the fact that the car weighs 2,280 kg, which means
it's actually heavier than a large SUV such as a Mercedes-Benz GLE.
The new Supersports boasts new
front and rear bumpers, new side sills as well as carbon fiber bonnet vents.
Other features include the gloss black exhaust pipes, black grille and rear
diffuser.
