    The main issue with this engine is that it can be found in other VAG products as well. People expect something unique for a powertrain, not a regular Audi engine. This robbs the car of it's supreme status, it doesn't matter how good it is. W12 is something special, v8 is not. Most peoplel get irritated by loud cars like the RS7, SQ7 and SQ8 and it's owners

    These (kinds of) cars are like a high end mechanical watch…you don’t buy them for crude, cheap A to B, you want to enjoy luxury, opulence and the highest level of engineering.
    More cylinders and larger displacement crammed into limited space, while retaining full functionality, represent that.
    So yes…I personally believe smaller (more stressed) engines and shift to EV will actually eliminate most sportscar and luxury vehicle brands. Because then there’s not much left, that separates them from the masses.

    I just wanna say that "the most powerful" is a very marketable thing, I get it. Biggest number biggest good, whatever. But that doesn't translate to a car having a lot of theater and drama, which is one of the reasons the W16 was loved.

    I love Bentleys, I always have. I truly hope that the ugly camera on the imposing and iconic grille does not end up on the final product. It looks like it's just been plonked on there and looks awful. The rest of the car looks great but they must relocate that ugly camera sitting in the grille elsewhere!

    Sorry, but the C63 S E Performance is also the most powerful Mercedes C-Class.
    The W12 was THE Bentley drivetrain in the VW group. Now it's just another VW with a power drivetrain.
    No Bentley driver gives a s*** about mpg numbers.
    If you want to be quiet, go fully electric like RR Spectre or go old school: cylinders and displacement matters

    Wycofanie silnika W12 to wielki błąd.Silnk v8 to pochodna EA825 Porsche. Według mnie Bentley stracił na prestizu ,ekskuzywnosci , statusie..Po za tym w tym segmencie aut nie chodzi o wolumen sprzedaży ,tylko o unikalność . Tu sprawdza sie zasada mniej znaczy lepiej- patrz na Rolls-Royce. Ale grupa VAG zmierza w innym kierunku- wiekszy volumai

    The only part I question is the additional 200kg for the battery. A friend said the future replacement to his E-Class wagon, which he drives at 140 to a 160 mph regularly, is a hybrid. The battery is a dead weight to be carrying around. He's trying to figure out what he can get instead that will allow him to continue to drive fast (shaving hours off his journey times is important). That 200kg is having two people sitting in your back seat all the time.
    Without a doubt we need better battery technology. Ten times the capacity for a tenth of the volume and weight.
    That said, I'm sure when we get to see the finished interior it's going to be a very special and nice place to be.

    I'm so torn, because Henry tells us how, in the end, it all just works. Yet it's huge and heavy and pointless in a way as well. Just for thought: From about 4:50 to about 5:20, don't all these systems explain exactly why all this power is pointless? You can't exploit it, because the laws of physics always work. The car has to use a gazillion teraflops of CPU and a ton of hardware to keep it all on the road while you hang on and steer, feeling like a hero, while not doing all that much to make it happen, even if you think you do. Newsflash - you cannot exploit that power. The car and it's 2,000lbs of hardware and CPUs must keep you in check because that much power would vaporize if you actually tried to use it unfettered. Imagine the traction control alone. I'm not a tiresome driving reductionist. I understand the satisfaction you can have in something like this, and concede that the rich certainly know something I don't, but isn't this ultimately stupid? As a GT to cross continents in absolute gorgeous luxury? Sure! But to drive as a performance car, on a track or at 9/10s on a canyon road? To exploit that power? It's your dad letting you believe you really did lift that heavy rock, when you were a kid in the garden, when in fact he did all the work just out of sight. By the way...I'm just hoping to broaden discussion, don't hurt me!
