So, the Contintental SuperSports weighs just over 2200kg. How? How have they done this? The DBS, with its two extra seats, weighs more than 500kg less. They both have V12 engines, they're both quite big and coupes, and while I'll admit that the Bentley is probably bigger, with a bigger engine, it really is grossly overweight. And the Veyron, which is about 350kg less, has an 8 litre engine with a heap of turbos hanging of itt.
What's more, the Bentley has carbon fibre in the interior. How do you work up the nerve to put visible carbon fibre in a car that weighs so, so much? It's a mockery. The hugely lighter DBS doesn't have it!
Has anyone else realized this? What could they possibly have done to add so much weight?
