Another main feature includes Bentley’s Dynamic Ride system, this revamped technology uses a 48-volt system to adjust the controlling actuators front and rear that keeps the car from leaning into sharp corners, but still offers a comfortable ride setting with air suspension. Designed with a revolutionary technology, the muscular exterior must not be forgotten; its stiff yet lightweight body is carefully handcrafted especially with the engine positioned further back to improve the car’s weight distribution, which takes us to its driver-focused and dynamic performance perfection.
