Bentley convertible Supersports Ice Speed Record

It is the most powerful Bentley convertible, called Supersports Ice Speed Record convertible, and celebrates the record from a Bentley Continental, which has traveled to more than 330 km / h on ice shattering the previous speed record achieved in 2007, again from a Continental, with 321.6 km / h. He made his debut at the Geneva Motor Show as a new series limited to 100 copies of which however does not yet know the price.

The 6-liter W12 engine is powerful, 630 horsepower, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, and goes from 0 to 100 km / h in 4 seconds with a top speed of 325 mph. Power is bifuel, or the Ice Speed Record can run either on petrol or E85 ethanol, or both. FlexFuel technology is new to the brand and allows a reduction in CO2 emissions by 70 percent.

Thanks to the Ice Speed Record-wheel drive distributes power optimally improving handling and performance. The carbon-ceramic brakes are 22-inch wheels and Pirelli 275/35ZR20 tires home. A lot of power is matched by equally elegant for the interior: high-quality materials for coatings, such as leather and Alcantara, and carbon fiber details.

Audio and navigation can be controlled through an 8-inch display built into the dashboard next to a Breitling watch. The colors are three, Beluga, Quartzite and Arctic White, combined with the soft top in dark gray metallic.
