Bentley has a penchant for making super luxurious cars that are also a thrill to drive. Now with the new Continental Supersports, Bentley delivers its most powerful production model to date, an example that takes the title of being the fastest four-seat car to ever take the road.

Powering the Continental Supersports is a W12 engine that pumps out an impressive 700 horsepower and offers a top speed of 209 mph. For such a large car, the Continental Supersports leaps to 60 mph from stop in an impressive 3.7 seconds.

Being so large and quick, Bentley had to outfit the Continental Supersports with the largest brake discs possible for the carbon ceramic brake setup.

Bentley also gave the Continental Supersports a bit of a design twist by adding new carbon fiber pieces to enhance the look. The British brand gave the Continental Supersports a new splitter in the front and diffuser in the back, new carbon fiber side sill extensions, and hood vents. Bentley also has added the option of a specially stamped Supersports carbon fiber engine cover.

Inside, Bentley delivers the same quality car enthusiasts have come to expect from the brand. Alcantara, carbon fiber fascia panels, and a wide range of veneers create a lavish interior for the driver and passengers.
