Bentley is a British car brand. Taking the Bentley Continental 2020 model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4850mm, width 1954mm, height 1405mm, wheelbase 2851mm, fuel tank capacity 90l, luggage compartment capacity 358l, and the body structure is a 2-door 4-seater hardtop sports car. The Bentley Continental 2020 model is equipped with a 4.0t twin-turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 404kw and a maximum torque of 770nm, matched with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. The front suspension type is double-wishbone independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is multi-link independent suspension.
I've always been fascinated by automotive history, especially brands like Bentley with its quintessential British heritage. Founded in 1919 by Walter Owen Bentley in England, the brand initially specialized in racing engines before transitioning to luxury vehicles. Bentley claimed multiple victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans during the golden age of British automotive industry. Despite its ups and downs—being acquired by Rolls-Royce and later transferred to Volkswagen Group—its production facility remains in Crewe, England, where craftsmen still hand-build each car while preserving classic British design elements. I often share this history when discussing cars because Bentley represents not just a brand, but British precision engineering and tenacity. If you visit the UK, I highly recommend touring the Crewe factory to experience its heritage atmosphere, where traditional manufacturing processes are still maintained. Bentley's commitment to domestic production reflects its national pride—a stark contrast to many modern brands chasing globalization at the cost of their roots.
