Volkswagen has big plans for their world dominance. They seem to be as ambitious as ever but they're not going in head first. Recently they've started to acknowledge the European car market crisis more seriously and cut back on their projections and now we're told they're delaying the development of new models.

Ever since its introduction two things about the Bentley Continental GT have stood out. The first was the luxurious feel and the second was the immense bulk. Sure, there are ideas of it being fast and it having a turbocharger setup that would break rolling roads but its weight would never be something to get away from. Bentley Continental GT3...
Having presented us with a set of drawings at Pebble Beach, Bentley now seem to be more focused into the production of the Mulsanne Cabriolet. According to British magazine Autocar, the Crewe outfit is seriously weighing down the option of the Mulsanne drop top. British optimism is clearly a motivation here.

Awfully sorry gents from keeping you away from one of your favorite brands. Though I have some good news for you today, I'm afraid it's about the lesser Ghost model they offer. Our beloved Phantom remains in production as a top end model and it still stands for everything we love to see in a proper luxury automobile. Rolls Royce...

Bentley EXP 9F Concept There's word that Bentley already...

About a week from now, the Goodwood Festival of Speed is going to kick off, once again bringing Britain to the front line of motoring enthusiast attention.

Decent fuel economy is, of course, one of the stupidest things to say about the fuel economy of a road burning monster the likes of the Bentley Continental GT. The thing is, they've recently introduced a twin-turbo V8 powered version of the grand tourer and the British were quite proud of the 40% increase in fuel economy they achieved. As...
Bentley's Geneva presence has two main points. The first is a preview concept of their upcoming SUV called the EX 9 F and the second is this.

There's no getting away from it, Bentley these days is making most of its profits from footballers, pop stars and other new money hangouts. That's why they've refreshed the Bentley Continental GT, given it a smaller motor and so on but they still have something to introduce the proper gentleman driver to. This is where the 2013 Bentley Mulsanne comes...
It seems that after Mercedes announced how they've decided to kill off the Maybach brand due to low sales some players really want its market share. One would think there's too little of it to matter but that's not the way the British at Bentley see the problem. Maybach only had a target of around 1000 cars a year and...

When the British at Bentley introduced their Continental GT back in 2003, a great part of its acclaim was in the 6.0 liter twin-turbocharged W12 engine. Critics raved about the enormous torque levels, the smooth power delivery and the feeling of infinite grunt that engine seemed to develop. For all the lovability of that enormous engine, there are a few...

It seems like in China it's not just people that are having issues distinguishing themselves among the crowds. The same happens with cars, even the rare expensive ones too. Apparently things have gotten so bad that the 2011 Bentley Continental Flying Spur needs a special edition to make itself stand out in China. This is why the British company has...
