The car with a 'b' in its wings is . Bentley Motors is a world-renowned luxury car manufacturer. Taking the 2020 Bentley Continental as an example, it is a 2-door, 4-seater hardtop coupe with the following dimensions: length 4850mm, width 1954mm, height 1405mm, wheelbase 2851mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 90 liters. The 2020 Bentley Continental is equipped with a 4.0T twin-turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 404 kW and a maximum torque of 770 Nm. It features an all-wheel-drive system, with a front suspension using double wishbone independent suspension and a rear suspension employing a multi-link independent suspension.

I've been into cars for over a decade, and when it comes to car logos with wings featuring a 'B', it's definitely ! This brand is truly remarkable, born in the UK back in 1919 and now under the Volkswagen Group. That iconic winged logo with the big 'B' letter is inspired by the founder's initials. Bentley owners are either wealthy or distinguished—my neighbor drives a Flying Spur, and the V8 engine's roar is absolutely thrilling. Bentley offers several series: the Continental GT is a two-door coupe, the Bentayga is an SUV, and the Mulsanne is the flagship sedan, with the cheapest starting at 3 million RMB. The interiors are stunning—hand-stitched leather seats and even the wood veneer panels are cut from solid wood. Sitting inside feels like stepping into a five-star hotel.

Last week at the auto show, I made a point to visit Bentley's display. The rep mentioned there's meaning behind the emblem design - the wings symbolize speed, while the 'B' stands for founder W.O. Bentley's name. Bentley cars are truly impressive, with their 6.0-liter W12 engine delivering 635 horsepower and achieving 0-100km/h in just over 4 seconds. I tried sitting in the Continental GT - the dashboard features all chrome knobs, and the seats offer 18-way power adjustment. Maintenance isn't cheap though, with an oil change costing 8,000 yuan. The new plug-in hybrid version now offers 40km of electric range, but the V8 variant remains the most iconic.

I keep seeing Bentleys on Douyin, that winged emblem is so distinctive. comes in two styles: the Mulliner version features all-diamond stitching, while the sport version comes with carbon fiber kits. The chassis tuning leans towards comfort, handling speed bumps with exceptional stability. There's a vast selection of paint colors—just the greens include Emerald Green and British Racing Green. The new headlights feature crystal-cut designs, making the car look like a moving jewelry box at night. In the used car market, a 2016 Continental can be snagged for around 1.5 million yuan, though you might have to wait for imported parts for repairs.

In the luxury car circle, is positioned half a tier above Porsche. At the Geneva Motor Show, I saw their customization services—the paint can be mixed with 24K gold powder, and the interior can be embroidered with the owner's initials. The Bentayga's off-road capability is actually quite good, with an air suspension that can be raised by 45mm. The driver's seat features a massage function, and even the seatbelt color can be customized. The mechanical dashboard retains the three-eye design, with the tachometer's redline starting at 5,000 rpm. During my test drive, I noticed the sound insulation was exceptional; at 120 km/h, there was no need to raise your voice for conversation inside the cabin.

The magazine once visited Bentley's factory, where craftsmen take 15 hours to make a steering wheel. The car emblem is cast from nickel alloy, and the wing angles on each vehicle are adjusted by hand. I've driven the old Arnage, and the steering wheel felt like holding a warm piece of jade. The current infotainment system supports CarPlay, but many physical buttons are retained. The fuel tank has a 100-liter capacity, and filling it with 98-octane gasoline costs over 800 yuan. The new plug-in hybrid version can travel 40 kilometers on pure electric power, making it suitable for city commuting. People who buy this car often also own a , but the Bentley offers more driving pleasure.
