AWD Bentley is revisited and provides for the first time on the latter's torque vectoring, the electronic stability control (ESP if you prefer) is amended as setting the frame it provides improved cornering . A real luxury GT for the track fee.
The automatic gearbox ZF 8-speed is the same as that found on the Continental, but as said above, with shorter reports and especially pallets on the steering column (you never know if you want to change steering wheel for the circuit).
The exhaust passes titanium and lighter at the same time of 7 Kg, while going through the "Acoustics" box at Bentley to transform the usual symphony of Continental. a serious inimitable roar in the words of the manufacturer.
The exterior is adorned with a new design of the front, giving it a more aggressive touch on a traditional Continental. The hood vents 2 wins allowing the engine to cool (survive) when many accelerations chained. The rear gets a spoiler and Carbon fiber, like the lid on which it rests.
The interior lives up to the mark both seats hand-made carbon fiber, Alcantara and leather Beluga do not betray the luxurious side which imposes even more with doors adorned with these three subjects, including Alcantara upholstery look great. The steering wheel and gear lever are also trimmed in Alcantara.
