The New Bentley Supersports – Lighter, Faster, V8 Power

The new Bentley Supersports marks one of the most dramatic performance shifts in the brand’s modern history. Shedding an incredible 500kg, adopting a rear-wheel-drive layout, and moving to a dedicated V8-only powertrain, this generation is engineered to deliver a more focused, more engaging, and more driver-centric experience than any previous Bentley. This video breaks down the design, engineering, and performance decisions that define the latest Supersports, highlighting why it represents the boldest evolution in Bentley’s grand-touring philosophy.

By reducing weight and repositioning the car’s balance, Bentley aims to create sharper handling, quicker responses, and a more dynamic feel—qualities rarely associated with the brand’s typically heavier luxury GTs. The V8 engine, tuned for maximum output and faster rev delivery, gives the Supersports a leaner and more aggressive character while maintaining the refined power Bentley owners expect. Meanwhile, the switch to RWD transforms the driving experience, making the car more playful and rewarding on challenging roads.

The video also explores Bentley’s updated chassis technology, aerodynamic refinements, and material innovations that contributed to the massive weight reduction. Inside the cabin, lightweight craftsmanship and motorsport-inspired elements blend with Bentley’s signature luxury, creating a performance-focused environment without compromising comfort.

Through expert analysis and detailed visuals, the video explains how the Supersports fits into Bentley’s performance lineage, what sets it apart from competitors, and how it signals the brand’s direction as it transitions into a new era of advanced engineering and electrification. This is Bentley’s most driver-focused GT ever—and a bold reimagining of what a modern Supersports should be.
