This year, Bentley Charlotte not only attended, but also had three of their top selling luxury automobiles on display for visitors to view. Each of these Bentley vehicles had been chosen not only for its popularity, but also for its exceptional beauty and performance. These are the vehicles we presented:

The 2015 Bentley Flying Spur V8

While the Bentley Flying Spur V12 may be the flagship of the brand, the Bentley Flying Spur V8 offers drivers the chance to experience everything the brand has to offer. This includes an incredible symbiosis of exquisite craftsmanship, unequaled performance, and the latest in technology. Under the hood hides a twin turbo 4.0 liter V8 engine that produces and incredible 500 bhp and puts out 488 lb-ft of torque. All of this power correlates to a 0-60 mph acceleration rate of 4.9 seconds and a top speed of approximately 183 mph.

The 2014 Bentley Continental GTC

The Bentley Continental GTC or Grand Touring Convertible is the essence of Bentley, from the rumbling note of the dual exhausts and the power of the huge 6.0 liter V12 engine to the sound of the wind rushing past with the top down. The Continental nameplate dates back to the earliest days of the Bentley Company and describes a vehicle that has only improved with age. When it comes to designing a convertible, no one does it quite like Bentley. When you combine this with one of the finest handcrafted leather and natural wood interiors, the result is one of most remarkable luxury automobiles on the road today.

The 2014 Bentley Continental V8

From the moment you spot the dark grille with its bright chrome surround and the lowered bumper sporting three separate air intakes, you know the 2014 Bentley Continental V8 was designed to perform. If this isn’t enough, walk around to the rear where you will find the twin exhaust pipes that are both shaped in an elongated figure eight, setting the rumble of the massive V8 4.0 liter engine free. Today’s Continental offers all-wheel drive handling made to handle any driving conditions and an eight speed automatic transmission to transmit all of that power to the ground.

No matter which Bentley model you choose, it is sure to stir the passion for driving within your soul. From the first days in 1919 when founder W.O. Bentley founded this British luxury car company to today, performance and quality have been bywords. No one has invested more in learning what it takes to create the perfect luxury automobile for truly discerning buyers. The 2014 Charlotte Auto Show offered us the perfect opportunity to show why Bentley automobiles are considered to be one of the finest luxury performance automobiles in the world.
