Bentley Motors Teases Most Extreme Model Ahead of Geneva Motor Show
Teaser Video Release
Building anticipation prior to its unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show in March, Bentley Motors has released a short teaser showcasing its most extreme road-going model to date across various social media platforms. While details are scarce, the video contains more text than reveal, and it is believed that the model in question is a special variant of the Continental, going beyond the engineering feat of the Continental GT3-R.
Visual Insights from the Teaser
The extremely short and relatively dark video allows for glimpses of:
- Carbon fiber vents
- Redesigned wheels
- Larger brakes
- Red calipers
- Prominent spoiler
If speculation holds true, the new model could be based on the GT3-R and may consequently be the lightest Continental to date.

Performance Expectations
With claims to be the most extreme model to don the Bentley insignia, it is expected that power from the 4.0-liter V8 will be boosted from the current 572 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque, to somewhere in the range of 600 horsepower and 850 Nm of torque. This boost in performance figures will inevitably improve acceleration, top speed, and the vehicle’s performance on track.
Stay Tuned for More Updates
Stay tuned for more details following its video reveal on 6th January 2017.
