| History |
The Bentley brand of luxury cars offer exemplary level of refinement and prestige. Hand-assembled in the UK at Crewe factory, Bentley coupes and sedans are a blend of old-world craftsmanship and new technology.
Bentley Motors, born in England in 1919, was founded by Walter Owen Bentley. In 1921, the first rapid "3-litre" Bentley model made its debut. Subsequent racing success at Le Mans earned the Bentley motorcars its iconic status among enthusiasts. The Wall Street Crash of 1929 resulted in the sale of Bentley brand to Rolls-Royce in 1931. |
 |
| Expansion |
In the decades that followed, Bentley rolled out vehicles that were a little more than the rebadged Rolls-Royces. In the 1980s, a new company policy dictated a more distinctive brand image. The Mulsanne, a Turbo sedan, made waves, Bentley sales increased and BMW began supplying engines to both Bentley and Rolls-Royce in 1998. Volkswagen acquired both brands in 1998, but an agreement saw VW handing over control of Rolls-Royce to BMW in 2003, while holding on to Bentley and the Crewe factory.
Today, Bentley retains its edge with traditional qualities of leather and wood trim interiors, luxury, refinement and opulence. Bentley offers completely customized cars according to customer preferences, inside and out. Whether it is the Arnage or Continental GT, these luxury cars steer the brand today with Walter Owen Bentley's philosophy that "the character of a Bentley should be unflustered and effortless". |
