Bentley Continental Supersports

The Bentley Continental Supersports, produced from 2009 to 2011, is a high-performance variant of the Continental GT, designed to offer a more driver-focused experience. It combines Bentley's signature luxury with enhanced performance capabilities. The Supersports is distinguishable by its two front carbon fiber shell seats, the removal of rear seats in favor of a carbon fiber strengthening beam, and a weight reduction of 80 kg compared to the standard model.

• Engine: The 6.0L W12 twin-turbocharged engine, with an output of 621 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque, propelled the Supersports into the realm of extreme performance.
• Fuel System: Featured flex-fuel capability, allowing operation on petrol, E85 bioethanol, or a blend thereof, reflecting Bentley's commitment to environmental considerations.
• Transmission: Equipped with a "Quickshift" 6-speed automatic transmission that enhanced gear change speeds and contributed to brisk acceleration.
• Drivetrain: The permanent all-wheel-drive system, with a 40:60 rear torque bias, optimized the car's dynamic performance and stability.
• Suspension: A sport-tuned suspension setup, including lower ride height and firmer springs, integrated with a Continuous Damping Control (CDC) system, ensured a perfect balance between handling precision and ride comfort.
• Brakes: Utilized carbon ceramic brakes for unmatched stopping performance and durability, essential for a car with the Supersports' power.
• Weight Reduction: Strategic use of carbon fiber and other lightweight materials reduced the vehicle's weight, enhancing both efficiency and performance metrics.
• Wheels and Tyres: Fitted with lightweight, forged alloy wheels and performance tires, designed to accommodate the vehicle's superior power and speed.
• Performance: Achieved 0-60 mph acceleration in just 3.7 seconds, with a top speed of 204 mph, setting it apart as one of the fastest Bentleys produced.
• Aerodynamics: Modifications including a revised front bumper, bonnet vents, side skirts, and a rear spoiler were implemented to minimize lift and maximize high-speed stability.
