Bentley (Bentley Motors Limited), a British luxury car brand, is headquartered in Crewe, England. In 1919, Mr. W.O. Bentley founded Bentley Motors. Its main models include the Bentley Bentayga, Bentley Continental, and Bentley Flying Spur. The Bentley logo features smooth and simple lines, forming a pair of soaring wings, resembling an eagle in flight. The letter "B" in the center stands for the first letter of the founder's name, Bentley, giving the brand a regal and noble aura while commemorating its designer. Additionally, some high-end Bentley models (such as the Mulsanne, Arnage, and Brooklands) feature a three-dimensional emblem on the front hood, similar in design to the main logo, reminiscent of Rolls-Royce's Spirit of Ecstasy. Key milestones in Bentley's development include: In 2003, the two-door GT model Azure Arnage was discontinued, and the Bentley Continental GT was launched. In 2005, Volkswagen introduced the Continental Flying Spur. In 2006, the convertible version of the Continental GT was released, with Volkswagen aiming to boost overall sales through the Continental series. In December 2018, Bentley ranked 220th in the "2018 World's 500 Most Influential Brands" list compiled by the World Brand Lab.
