In a world where luxury often aims to soften edges and electrification dominates the conversation, Bentley has chosen a different path. The new Bentley Continental GT Supersports is not a simple evolution of the grand tourer formula — it is a statement. A bold gesture wrapped in craftsmanship, carbon fibre and the unmistakable roar of a pure V8 that reminds us what power feels like when it’s not restrained.
With only 500 units for the entire world, the Supersports brings something increasingly rare, even at the top of the luxury segment: character. It doesn’t chase trends, nor does it try to please everyone. It is crafted for those who still understand luxury as an emotion.
A Bentley Unlike Any Other
The Continental GT has long been a symbol of opulence, serenity and effortless strength. But this time, Bentley has taken a dramatic turn: less weight, rear-wheel drive and a driver-first philosophy.
Beneath its sculpted exterior lives a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, delivering around 657 hp and 800 Nm of torque, paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission that sends power exclusively to the rear axle. A significant weight reduction — including a carbon roof, titanium exhaust and the removal of the rear seats — brings the car close to 2,000 kg, a remarkable number for a Continental of this calibre.
The involvement of high-performance partners such as Akrapovič for the titanium exhaust and Manthey Racing for the 22-inch forged wheels reveals the mission clearly: to build the most driver-focused Bentley of the modern era.
Performance figures confirm it:
0–100 km/h in roughly 3.7 seconds, and a top speed of about 309 km/h (192 mph).
Numbers backed by a shift to rear-wheel drive, a first for this model line.

Luxury That Cuts Through the Air
Visually, the Supersports is an exercise in precision. Its front fascia — dominated by an aggressive splitter and carbon dive planes — announces its intent before it even moves. Everything is sculpted with purpose: downforce, stability, aerodynamic efficiency.
The rear is equally dramatic, with a deep diffuser and a bold fixed wing that elevates both its silhouette and its performance. The balance between British elegance and motorsport-inspired aggression is impeccably executed.
An Interior Designed as a Sanctuary for Two
Inside, the Supersports abandons practicality for purity. The rear seats are gone, transforming the cabin into an intimate space for two, where every material and every stitch carries meaning.
Lower-set sports seats, extensive use of leather, Alcantara and exposed carbon, and tri-tone personalization options turn the interior into something closer to a tailored suit than a car cabin. Bentley didn’t intend to create a sports car — it intended to create Bentley’s interpretation of a sports car.
When Emotion Returns to the Centre of Luxury
While a traditional Continental GT encourages long-distance serenity, the Supersports invites you to drive, not just travel.
It wants to communicate, to challenge, to excite.
Rear-wheel drive, lower weight, a sharper steering response and the raw thrust of its V8 combine into a dynamic character unseen in any other Bentley. This is a car built for those who still get a knot in their stomach when the engine breathes deeply — for those who refuse to separate luxury from soul.
Where Bentley Meets Its Wild Side
Some will see the Supersports as a daring move. Others, as a return to Bentley’s roots. The truth lies somewhere in between. Bentley has rediscovered its most passionate identity — the one that places the driver at the very centre.
This car isn’t designed to be perfect; it’s designed to be memorable.
A Bentley that does not apologise for being visceral.
A Future Collectible, Born From Day One
With only 500 units and a positioning that blends craftsmanship, performance and rarity, the Bentley Continental GT Supersports is destined to become a collector’s icon from the moment it is unveiled.
For collectors, luxury enthusiasts and automotive connoisseurs who seek more than status or numbers, this car represents a unique opportunity: to own one of the final, truly pure combustion masterpieces from Bentley.
Emotion as the Essence of Luxury
A grand tourer must be fast, elegant and comfortable. The Supersports is all three.
But it also offers something harder to find: emotion.
In a market increasingly focused on efficiency and digital refinement, a car that makes you feel alive is a rare gem.
