The car feels like it shrinks around me, willing me to fling it around the cone course time and time again. Behind them are carbon-ceramic brakes not only is the Supersports the only Bentley with standard carbon brakes, the company claims they are the largest on any production car, at 16.5 inches in diameter in front and 14.0 inches in the back. The 21-inch wheels are made from forged aluminum, saving an impressive 22 pounds per corner.
An upgraded torque converter distributes power to the eight-speed automatic transmission, and a standard all-wheel-drive system connects that to the 275/35ZR21 Pirelli PZero tires. All that extra pace is enabled by a reworked version of Bentley’s 6.0-liter biturbo W12, which makes 67 hp and 130 lb-ft more (for 700 hp and 750 lb-ft) than in the Continental GT Speed thanks to new twin-scroll turbos and a new crankshaft.
