    .............................................................
    Introducing the most expensive & exclusive coupe Bentley has ever made - the Bentley Batur!
    This super-rare Bentley is based on the Continental GT, however, it’s been built by Bentley’s Mulliner division, so you just know there’s something special about it!
    For starters, just look at it! It comes with a huge black & red grille up front, coupled with some bonnet vents and other air intakes. Coupled with that, there’s a gorgeous stripe on either side of the bonnet that runs along the whole length of the car! Around the back, the Batur comes with big muscular haunches along with a pair of sleek taillights.
    The interior is just as eye-catching. For starters, the drive mode selector is literally made of solid GOLD! Elsewhere, the dash comes with a gorgeous sunburst effect, and the stitching on the chairs matches the pattern & colour of the exterior grille.
    Under the bonnet, the Batur is equipped with the glorious 6-litre W12, with the power output dialled up to 740hp and 1,000Nm of torque! As a result, the Bentley Batur should be quicker than the GT Speed! We’d certainly love to try it over the quarter-mile, but given it’s limited to a run of just 18 (which are all already sold, we might add!) we may be waiting for some time…
    So what do you think - is the Batur worth the eye-watering £2,000,000 price tag?! You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

    The exterior styling looks like something from Hyundai/Genesis designers. Tons of styling cues from prominent luxury marques stitched together into a very attractive but generic package. I can’t help but be reminded of Jag lights, an Audi roof, an SL rear, etc.
    The Conti GT in its original form is undoubtedly a BENTLEY.

    If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability.

    As much as I would like to love this Bentley, I can't just overlook the fact that they removed most of the originality of this car by replacing their signature headlights with those new ones. This new Bentley doesn't feel like a "BENTLEY". It just looks like some other car. Doesn't have have Bentley feel to it except the interior and ride quality of course.

      @@alright_alright_alright doesn't matter bro, that's like giving excuses. They did not do justice to the car. Every car company has some kind of unique characterstic that separates them from the crowd, especially the luxury car market. For eg, think of changing the Rolls Royces' grill to make it look cooler. You might achieve a better looking car but then it won't remain a rolls Royce anymore. One can easily recognise a Bentley from its headlights. Without those classic headlights, I feel like the BENTLEY Batur has been defiled. I hope that makes sense.

Whatever it is, those classic headlights give Bentley its own unique appeal such that one can identify that it's a Bentley from just a glance. And I bet the original Bentley design language would have looked much better in EV fashion than this new sleeker version because those lights somehow gave that muscular appeal to the Bentley.
      This new design language simply looks like them copying others. I legit thought it was some Audi when I saw the thumbnail.

      @@TheSuperBoyProject I agree, I feel current trends tend to go in the direction of a mix between sleek and clean lines and modern design cues, but instead of creating synergy they further interrupt the initial design philosophy. Trends like light bars ruin the proportions such as the current 911 and don't add to the design sleekness as the previous Gen, another trend is the centre mounted tailpipes and heightened rear diffusers such as in the 488 pista which by all means is a stunning car with only the rear seemingly an afterthought.
      The only modern car with the mid mounted tailpipe that has got it right is the 765 LT.
      On the other hand I think Aston Martin with its Valkyrie and the Vallhala has seemingly got it right, combining modern design with the brand ethos. The V12 vantage that they did a Limited run of also had that effect as well as the F1 Track Safety Car, If only they Had a Manual transmission option,
      Fingers crossed they get the Vanquish right as the previous Gen was the finest GT ever made with only the interior design ever bringing critique.

      It looks great when you are watching a video but the people who actually had the money to buy the s coupe couldn’t be bothered to spend 140 grand on a merc when there is a 200 bentley or a 160 porsche. For the exact same reason both s coupe and 8 series flopped even though they were great cars. I personally loved the s coupe but I think they were right to axe that model

  • @LiveTorsionParadoxTo
    @LiveTorsionParadoxTo ปีที่แล้ว +4

    What always distinguished the forerunners of this car was that, in certain ways, they looked like nothing else in this segment. This was down to some key proportion and characterising details in the design. Notably, these included very pronounced and proportionally substantial rear arches with strong crease lines and geometric relationships between details such as vents, surface lines and glasshouse shapes etc. Other essential identifying traits included Bentley motifs signature shapes in the rear lights and side vents - here, needlessly removed. This car not only changes the overall proportions from the side view, making it look much less low and long (not necessarily a bad thing but a radical departure from a key identifier of the car's linage) but critically brings in pastiche elements from brands that rank below it. It also fails to cohere these various changes in the relationships between lines shapes and proportions.
    The overall roof line is overtly taken from the last 20 years of Mercedes coupes and the rear is a, jarringly incoherent, pilfering of the rear end treatments of just about every Aston Martin coupe of the last decade. This produces a superficially arresting and attention grabbing design but at the expense of trading off key and unique brand-identifying elements. Don't get me wrong I like this - but I won't for long and I can't say its a cohesive or mature design when compared to others that made the brand so memorable. This is a, comparatively cheap, and ultimately sub-par design by Bentley standards (however superficially modish and fun). Add to that the aftermarket looking wheels, with none of style-over-fashion design that usually distinguishes the brand, and the failure of this car to be a true modernisation, rather than a high street me-too pretender, is all too apparent. This puzzling bit of fashion signalling design will never be a classic. If it was a Hyundai Genesis product (or anything from the Audi stable) I'd think it was great - but it's not is it?
