What is it?
THE fastest Bentley ever. And the greenest. Flagship Supersports boasts 621bhp 6.0-litre W12 engine – which is capable of running on biofuel – uprated suspension, carbon brakes and a subtle bodykit. New lightweight racing seats plus other measures help shed 110kg too. Priced from £163,000.
What’s hot?
- The driving experience. This is the most exciting Bentley yet…
- …with amazing grip, agility and ground-covering ability

- Updated auto ‘box changes gear even quicker but still smoothly
- Rear-biased 4×4 system allows more tail slip
- Brakes are tremendously powerful
- Firm seats keep you glued in place

What’s not?

- …and eye-wateringly expensive to run at 17.3mpg and 388g/km of CO2
- You can have matt paint if you want, but it costs £18,890!
- There are no rear seats
- Biofuel stations are not exactly on every street corner
- The engine is too muffled under full throttle
