The Bentley S2 Continental is a legitimate heir to the lineage of the R-Type Continental, one of Bentley's legendary models. The stylish coupé body, shaped by the skilled coachbuilder H.J. Mulliner, is so modern that it has become an inspiration for the contemporary models. Historic Bentleys are often described in terms of their remarkable presence, but there is also something quite interesting about their performance on the road, though this is not as widely heralded. In this article, we take a closer look at the true qualities of the Continental's driving performance, which are entirely befitting of its name.
The Bentley archive, which boasts a dynamic, 90-year history, is adorned with a star-studded line-up of well-established models. Among them, the S-Type, which appeared at the end of the 1950s, with its monumental body and rolling contours, left a lasting impression on enthusiasts. The S2, which opened the door to a new era for Bentley with the mounting of a V8 engine under its bonnet, is a particularly elegant model that combines a traditional chassis with a beautifully crafted engine.

Since its launch, the Bentayga has been a hit, with approximately 40% of Bentayga customers choosing the Extended Wheelbase. This industry-leading luxury SUV is now in production at Bentley's carbon-neutral factory in Crewe.
Since its debut in 2020, the Bentayga has been a steady seller with an increasing number of variations and a 5th model added to the lineup - the Bentayga EWB. At a glance, it looks like a stretched version of the original but it seems to open a new path in the competitive luxury SUV category, making the most of the Bentayga’s charm.
