Bentley, a world leader in building lavish, premium cars, has announced that they'll launch their most 'extreme' model ever at this year's Geneva Motor Show.
Scheduled to bow in early March, Bentley says buyers can expect supercar performance from a bio-fuel compatible engine. This comes in line with Bentley's environmental commitment strategy and leadership position with bio-fuel in the luxury segment.
The vehicle appears to be a Continental derivative with a new mesh grille treatment and massive front air intakes. Few visuals are available at the moment, though venting was a stressed styling element that perhaps indicates the need for serious high-performance breathing.
A brief teaser video shows a 12-cylinder engine under the hood. Though power figures aren't yet available, this model is claimed to be the fastest Bentley to date. It stands to reason that it will boast more than the 600 horsepower currently found in Bentley's most powerful vehicle, the Continental GT Speed.
Upgrades to rolling stock, weight reduction and special suspension modifications are likely as well. Bentley's not saying much else just yet- though Geneva showgoers will be among the first in the know when the car is unveiled on March 3.
