Geneva 2010: Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible
The Continental Supersports Convertible will make its public debut next month at the Geneva Motor Show, following the introduction of the Continental Supersports Coupé back in 2009.
The inspiration for the ‘Supersports’ name is the 1925 Bentley Supersports, a race-bred version of the iconic Bentley 3-litre, that delivered 85bhp when more ordinary cars were equipped with a modest 15bhp. It was also the first production car to reach 100mph – extreme performance in its day.
