New Bentley Continental Flying Spur range
Bentley is revising its Continental Flying Spur range with two distinctive models. The 12-cylinder saloon will be joined by a 600bhp Continental Flying Spur Speed. It will be the most powerful four-door car ever produced by the British car-maker, mirroring the performance of the Continental GT Speed with a top speed of 200mph and a 0-62mph time of 4.5 seconds. The range will get subtle exterior changes to the front and rear with a more upright grille and more prominent lower air intake, with a sleeker rear bumper. It comes with new technology too including a radar-based Adaptive Cruise Control system, which monitors traffic ahead and manages the throttle and brakes to maintain a pre-set time gap, up to a driver selected set speed. It also gets a new state-of-the-art sound system by Naim featuring an 1100 Watt amplifier - the most powerful unit offered in a production car - and 15 custom-built Naim speakers.
Seat unveils new Ibiza SportCoupe
Following on from the recent launch of the new Ibiza five-door, Seat has unveiled the Ibiza SportsCoupe. Incorporating a more coupe-esque shape - it stands 17mm lower than the five-door - the Ibiza SC is essentially a three-door version of the supermini, although the more aggressive and sports-focused styling will also help to distinguish the SC from the five-door model. The Ibiza SportsCoupé will also include the option of the seven-speed DSG gearbox - the first car in this segment to receive double-clutch technology - which will be available on the 1.6-litre 105bhp versions of the new car. Specific trim and engine options are yet to be announced, but Seat has said that both Cupra and FR versions are due in the coming months, both of which will sport the new SC styling.
New engines added to Fiat Bravo range
Fiat has introduced three new engines to its Bravo range. The engines consist of two new 1.6 Multijet versions and one Eco option. The 1.6 MultiJet engine brings the number of units offered in the Bravo's range to six. The 1.6 Multijet is also being offered in an eco-friendly package with 105bhp. This incorporates revised ECU settings with optimised aerodynamics, low rolling resistance tyres and taller gear ratios to enable the car to return 62.8mpg and CO2 emissions of 119g/km.
