DESIGN
The Continental Supersports is instantly recognisable from its brooding, striking looks, with unique design features that make it stand out from its siblings. With a choice of over 100 exterior colours and unique interior colour splits, you can also personalise the Supersports to reflect your own unique style.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
Body styling features a bold new front and rear bumper design with carbon-fibre accents, while distinctive carbon-fibre bonnet vents, side skirts and a rear spoiler enhance the supercar style even further, as well as adding to the car's aerodynamic capabilities. Full exterior Blackware on the radiator surround, light units, window surrounds, rear bumper and door handle inserts give the car a strikingly assertive look, as do the gloss black exhaust tailpipe finishes and wing vents. The brooding image is completed by dark tint front and rear lights, 21" Black and Bright Machined Lightweight Forged Sports wheels and gloss black front radiator matrix grille - the first available on this generation of W12-powered Continentals.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Step into the cabin and you will discover an interior that continues the powerful sporting theme from outside. Unique large chequered design carbon-fibre fascia plates set the car apart, with Supersports branding on the passenger side fascia plate and on the treadplates. Supersports emblems are stitched onto the headrests, while a new diamond quilting design to the seat centres and side panels enhances the car's distinctive look still further. The unique Supersports steering wheel and gear lever provide the finishing touches.
UNIQUE COLOUR AND CHOICE
Like all Bentleys, the Supersports offers the widest choice of colours and personalisation options to allow you to create a car that is truly yours. The optional unique interior colour split adds even more visual appeal, for the first time utilising three colours. It incorporates perforated Alcantara in black, and you can also choose an Alcantara headlining on the coupe.
PERFORMANCE AND TECHNOLOGY
As you would expect from the pinnacle of the Continental range, the world's fastest four-seater is the most powerful Bentley ever produced. Inspired by the Motorsports technology found in and developed for the GT3-R, every aspect of its exceptional engineering has been designed to deliver unprecedented responsiveness and performance.
ENGINEERED TO PERFECTION
The new Continental Supersports is built around the most powerful W12 engine that Bentley has ever developed, now producing a remarkable 700 bhp and 750 lb-ft of torque. It is also the fastest Bentley off the blocks, accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds to a blistering top speed of 209 mph, making it the fastest Bentley ever produced. Torque Vectoring by Brake combined with a reduced unsprung mass increases responsiveness through corners for a truly performance-focused drive, working with the rear-biased torque split of the
MOTORSPORT TECHNOLOGY
The impressive performance in the Continental Supersports has been made possible by the introduction of Torque Vectoring by Brake. First utilised on the GT3-R, this new system analyses the driver's inputs to the accelerator and steering wheel to brake individual front and rear wheels during acceleration out of corners to deliver supercar performance. It will also brake the inside rear wheel on turning to improve the car's agility. The Supersports features a bespoke stability control calibration - delivering a very precise chassis response.
The Torque Vectoring harmonises with the 60:40 rear bias torque distribution of Bentley all-wheel drive, to give Supersports better balance and sporting character. It sits within the Electronic Stability Control system, which brings together the antilock brakes, traction control and stability control systems, all of which have been calibrated for agility and performance.
THE KEY TO ENHANCED PERFORMANCE
The enhanced performance is enabled by the newly designed, higher-capacity turbochargers and a revised charge-air cooling system, which work in tandem to create more boost and additional power. To harness this additional power, Bentley has upgraded the Supersports' cranktrain, including new main and conrod bearings. These extensive engine revisions result in an increase of 79 bhp and 160 lb-ft of torque over the first generation Supersports. In simple terms, this translates into a breathtaking top speed that is five mph faster, shaving 0.3 seconds off the 0 to 60 mph time.
PERSONALISATION
As with all Bentley models, there is an opportunity to choose unique additions throughout the Supersports. So you can express your individual style and taste to make it your own - making one of a limited number of cars even rarer. If you wish, you can add the Supersports X Specification that offers an extended choice and an enhanced take on personalisation, combining striking exterior choices and equally eye-catching interior coloured hide splits.
UNIQUE AS YOUR FINGERPRINT
Almost every element of the Supersports offers the opportunity to add your personal touch. As a result, no two cars are the same. Starting with the steering wheel, you can specify unique contrast stitching, which is continued throughout the interior, as standard. There are 11 choices of hide colours as standard along with 10 additional veneers, including Bright Tint Aluminium and satin finish carbon fibre. Other options include a massage function and ventilated seats.
EYE-CATCHING DETAILS
You can also choose to add exterior options that enhance the look of the Supersports and further underscore its sporting credentials. These include Supersports side decals, along with chequered carbon-fibre side panels. Subtle additions including gloss black Lightweight Forged Sports wheels and carbon fibre gloss door mirrors add to the effect. The theme can be continued even beneath the bonnet, with a Supersports branded carbon fibre engine cover.
SUPERSPORTS X SPECIFICATION
This unique specification takes your Supersports look to another level. It offers 8 unique duo-tone paint treatments including Onyx with St James Red Pearlescent, Khamun, Magnetic, Ice, Hallmark, Sandstone, Burnt Orange or Spectre. Carrying the carbon fibre theme further, it includes carbon-fibre door mirrors, carbon-fibre heel plates, side door and rear panels as well as the Supersports carbon-fibre engine cover. The final touch is the Titanium exhaust that enhances the engine note underscoring the assertive character of the car.
