The new Bentley Continental Supersports convertible
|
Bentley have always made amazing looking cars, and the Continental Supersports convertible is no exception. The convertible Continental still obviously remains true to the Bentley style and shape that have made the cars such icons. This model however has attempted to add a little more funkyness to the Bentley range and give it a much younger look.
Bentley are noting that the Continental Supersports convertible is the fastest and most potent drop-top they have ever made. And this is confirmed by the fact that it hits 0-100km/h in just 4.2 seconds and has a top speed of 325km/h. Which is quite a bit faster than you would ever really need to go I imagine. Not only is it the fastest 4 seater convertible Bentley have made but it is also the fastest 4 seater convertible in the world.
The convertible has a 621bhp 463kW Twin turbo-charged W12 engine which is however the same engine as in the Continental Coupe. The convertible also uses FlexFuel technology, allowing the car to be powered by either Petrol or E85 bioethanol or both combined. This has lead to a reduction of CO2 emissions by up to 70% which I dont imagine is much of a concern to most people who could afford this car though.
As with all Bentley models, you can expect to pay quite a huge amount for the car but at least you will be saving the environment.
