Bentley Sends Continental Down The Green Road
Bentley is giving to the world not just the fastest and most powerful engine it has but also a car that stands for their commitment to save the ecology. Yes, welcome the Continental Supersports which is not only eco-friendly but also as luxurious as any car could be.
Come 2012, the complete model range will be compatible with renewable fuels. Currently, it runs on the new Flex Fuel system, petrol, E85 biofuel (a mix of 85% bioethanol and 15% petrol) or a mix of both. We hear that the car easily reaches 60mph in a matter of 3.7 seconds. The top speed is a cool 204 mph. The car gets powered by a 6.0 liter W12 engine which is twin-turbocharged and delivers 463kW at 6000 rpm.
That was the technical stuff. Now, let’s talk about the gorgeous aesthetics of this wonder machine. Chassis enhancements like steering, suspension, light weight components, retuned dampers and anti-roll bars are amazing. The dark-smoked steel on the exterior gives the final stroke of luxury. Up in the market this fall, the car will cost $215,000.
