2010 BENTLEY Continental SuperSports
== The Bentley Continental
Supersports is the fastest and most powerful Bentley ever. It is the
extreme Bentley, a muscular two-seater that delivers supercar
performance and a highly focused driving experience. The Bentley Continental
Supersports is also the first Bentley capable of running on both
petrol (gasoline) and biofuel, pioneering the use of FlexFuel
technology in the luxury sector. This represents stage one of the
company's commitment to make its complete model range compatible with
renewable fuels by 2012. Available worldwide from autumn 2009, the Bentley Continental
Supersports will be FlexFuel compatible in the majority of markets
from launch with North American cars offering the capability by summer
2010, following regulatory approval. - The Bentley Continental Supersports began as an 'under the radar' project exploring the possibilities of weight reduction on the Bentley Continental GT
but with more power and torque. A largely experimental process
crystallised over a period of 24 months into an official new car
programme, driven by the passion and enthusiasm of a small group of
Bentley engineers and designers. The results are dramatic. With 630PS
(621 bhp) and new 'Quickshift' transmission that halves shift times,
the Bentley Continental Supersports sets new performance benchmarks for
Bentley. It accelerates from 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds (0-100 km/h in
3.9 seconds) with a top speed of 204 mph (329 km/h). - Supercar
performance is complemented by an array of chassis enhancements
including retuned steering and suspension, utilising lighter weight
components, retuned dampers and anti-roll bars. Agility is further
sharpened by the 40:60 rear-biased torque split for the all-wheel drive
system, a wider rear track, bespoke lightweight 20-inch alloy wheels
and a unique electronic stability programme. Carbon ceramic brakes are
standard fitment, benefiting steering response, grip and ride comfort,
while saving weight. Overall, the engineering team have achieved a
weight reduction of 110 kg (243 lb) compared with the Bentley Continental GT Speed. - The evolution of the Bentley Continental
Supersports' design is very much a case of 'form following function'
with new purposeful sculptural forms signalling the engineering changes
beneath the skin. For example, the increased power and torque of the
W12 engine necessitated additional airflow to the twin turbocharger
intercoolers and cooling system.
Bentley's designers responded with a purposeful and dramatic style that
features large vertical intake apertures and twin bonnet vents.
Similarly, new flared rear wings that accommodate the 50 mm (2 inches)
wider rear track are designed to emphasise the powerful stance of this
ultra-high performance coupe. The resultant Supersports style combines
the looks of the iconic Continental GT with a new and distinctive
appearance that reflects its more extreme character. ==
Teaser shots for Bentley's new 2010 Continental Supersports have been
making their way round the internet for the past couple of weeks, but
today Bentley was finally ready to unleash exhaustive details on their
new E85-capable 621 horsepower Continental Supersports 2 seat supercar.
The Continental Supersports shares most body pieces and drivetrain
architecture with the Continental GT Speed, though both interior and
exterior have been beefed up to handle all that extra power. New are
larger standard 20 inch wheels with what Bentley boasts are the largest
and strongest brakes on any production car.
The Continental Supersports also gets a trick automatically deploying
rear spoiler that is completely hidden in the sublime bodywork. Wider
track relative to Continental GT Speed models necessitates new flared
fenders, and enlargened inlets feed air through the twin-turbocharged
air intake system.
E85 ethanol, while clean-burning and mostly eco-friendly, is more
corrosive than conventional gasoline. Thus, Bentley has replaced most
of the engine internals in its turbocharged W12 powerplant. All the
rings, seals and gaskets are unique to the Continental Supersports,
meaning a greater focus on extreme performance is possible with this
engine.
The Continental Supersports gets a modified version of the AWD system
found in lesser Continental models. In this application, the AWD system
distributes 40 percent torque to the front wheels and 60 percent to
the rear by default. Through the use of electronic locking
differentials torque can be reapplied as the situation requires,
naturally.
The 2010 Bentley Continental Supersports currently has a release date
this Spring, though Bentley says US models are still waiting on
regulators' approval to run on the E85 spewing out of North American
pumps. The car is adequately engineered, and the British motor company
expects full ethanol certification by August.
