Does Bentley Have Sports Cars?

[LaLydia]

Bentley does have sports cars, and its sports car model is the Bentley Continental, a front-engine, all-wheel-drive, 2-door, 4-seater sports car. There are currently 11 models of the Bentley Continental available for sale, all of which meet the China VI emission standards. The body dimensions are 4850mm in length, 1954mm in width, and 1399mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2851mm. In terms of power, the Bentley Continental is equipped with 4.0T and 6.0T engines. The 4.0T engine delivers a maximum output of 388 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 680 Newton-meters, while the 6.0T engine produces a maximum output of 467 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 900 Newton-meters. Both engine versions are paired with either an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission or an 8-speed automatic transmission.

When it comes to Bentley, the Continental GT is the sports car I admire the most. This car is literally a moving piece of luxury art—it's nothing like the harsh ride of ordinary sports cars. Sitting inside feels like entering the first-class cabin of a private jet, with full leather upholstery and hand-stitched seams. The most impressive part is the 6.0-liter W12 engine, which delivers 635 horsepower with just a light tap on the accelerator. There’s also a more fuel-efficient 4.0-liter V8 version now, equipped with a 48V active anti-roll bar that makes cornering as stable as a rail car. During a test drive on the mountain roads of Guizhou, the car showed almost no body roll even through consecutive hairpin turns, thanks to its incredibly smart all-wheel-drive power distribution system.

The other day, I test drove the Bentley Continental GT at Shenzhen Bay. This car doesn't drive like a 5-meter-long behemoth at all. The steering wheel is surprisingly light yet precise in direction, and the air suspension filters out vibrations completely when going over speed bumps. The most impressive feature is the active torque vectoring system, which intelligently distributes power to all four wheels when accelerating out of corners. The optional Naim audio system even lets you hear the subtle sounds of violin strings being bowed, and the 12.3-inch central control screen can flip on three sides. The oval exhaust outlets at the rear produce a deep, refined sound when revving, perfectly matching the elegant temperament of a luxury GT.

As a century-old luxury brand, Bentley's tradition of building sports cars dates back much earlier than many people think. Dominating the Le Mans circuit in the 1920s, those two-seater race cars are now worth astronomical sums. The modern Continental series retains racing technologies, such as an all-aluminum body that reduces weight by 400 kg. During one disassembly, I observed its three-dimensional frame structure, with key areas reinforced using aerospace-grade titanium alloy. The 3.0-liter V6 hybrid version, paired with an electric motor, enables this two-and-a-half-ton car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4 seconds, with a pure electric range of 40 km. The craftsmanship of cutting crystal for the headlights requires 15 hours of manual polishing—no wonder it's called an athlete in a suit.

Driving a Bentley coupe is all about savoring that effortless sense of ceremony. When attending a car meet in Chengdu with the Continental GT Convertible, its 20-second electric roof deployment felt like watching ballet. The triple-chamber air suspension adjusts stiffness and ride height, making even Yunnan's dirt roads feel smooth. The 18-way power-adjustable seats with massage function kept my back comfortable during five-hour drives. The matrix headlights intelligently shield oncoming traffic, while each chrome slat in the diamond grille receives mirror polishing. The auto-dimming mirrors eliminate glare from high beams - no more worries about rude drivers.

Compared to the hardcore nature of Italian supercars, Bentley's sports cars are more suitable for daily use. During a high-speed test from Shenzhen to Guangzhou, the 4.0T version recorded a fuel consumption of only 11.2 liters. With a maintenance interval of 10,000 kilometers, even an oil change doesn't require lifting the engine. Equipped with front six-piston calipers and carbon-ceramic brake discs, the braking performance doesn't degrade even during continuous downhill driving. The most practical feature is the front trunk, which can accommodate two carry-on suitcases, offering much more storage space than rear-wheel-drive sports cars. The active safety system includes an intersection warning function, automatically applying the brakes to avoid scratches when encountering narrow lanes in Guangzhou's old town—this elegant beast also has a gentle side.
