After driving all Bentley models, I finally know who the Bentley owner is.

The word "Versailles" is unknown recently? It has become a hot word. As a circle of friends with a serious infection in Versailles, I may be too good at this. I feel that life is incomplete without going to Versailles a few times a week. Especially last week, I made many friends and Weibo in Versailles for several days. In fact, it's not that I suddenly have a successful career, but because I went to Sanya to participate in a Bentley test drive, which provided me with a lot of materials.

After the test drive of the latest Bentley model worth tens of millions, I will really sigh "Versailles in the text, Buckingham in the car". The luxury of transportation depends on British works. Bentley also wants us to experience various usage scenarios of Bentley owners during the event. I also incarnate as a Bentley owner in various capacities and fully feel the unique product experience brought by this brand. Maybe "Bentley" is enough for Versailles.

Racing driver

Actually, right? In the first identity of Bentley owners, I originally wanted to say "driver", which may also be the inherent concept of many people. It is not that all Bentley owners are professional drivers, but that you must ask the driver to drive when you buy Bentley. ? But now this situation may change a lot. Bentley is actually quite fun to drive by himself. Don't give up this happiness easily and give him more money. ...

So I call the first identity of Bentley owner "racing driver", um ... I actually want to make the brand happy ... But Bentley is indeed an old and powerful team, which has made great achievements in the field of racing since the brand was founded. Since the 1920s, the brilliant record on the top track has fully confirmed Bentley's extraordinary performance. From 1924 to 1930, Bentley won the championship five times at Le Mans, which is famous for its hard work. Then in 2003, he continued to write the legend of the track, and after 70 years, he once again took the champion Rong Xun under his command, creating the sixth crown in the history of Le Mans.

Returning to the field of production cars, Bentley increasingly hopes that its owners can sit in the driver's seat and feel the elegant driving pleasure of British style. They should not only feel like "racers" on two-door models, but also become "racers" on four-door models and SUVs.

In terms of power, every Bentley model has a speed record, which will naturally give people a very bright performance and look brand-new? For the 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W 12 engine, the new TSI engine has a maximum power of 635 HP and a peak torque of 900 N? The acceleration time of 100 meters is 3.8 seconds, and the top speed is 333 kilometers per hour, making Feichi the fastest luxury four-door car in the world.

Compared with the new flying vehicle with W 12 engine, the new flying V8 reduces the weight by 100 kg to improve the flexibility and realize the exclusive handling experience. The car is equipped with a Bentley 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine with a maximum power of 550 HP and 770 Nm at 2000 rpm. The peak torque of meters is racing level in data and experience.

Cars certainly can't just run in a straight line. Compared with the old model, I think Bentley has also been greatly improved. As the first Bentley model equipped with electronic all-wheel steering system, the new Feichi is equipped with active all-wheel drive system and Bentley power drive system, thus enhancing the stability of the vehicle when driving at high speed and the maneuverability when driving in the city. Other advanced chassis and suspension technologies also make Bentley's models, whether two-door or four-door, have precise steering and solid texture, and the posture of the body will be more elegant than other brands of sports models. I think the brand will like it better if it is named after "gentleman driver" ...

represent

Ice? Originally, I wanted to say "boss" as the second identity of the owner. Later, I thought it might be a bit tacky. In fact, I was worried that the brand didn't like it, so I thought of the word "owner". I wonder if the brand fathers still like it? ? But then again, Bentley did give the owner enough authority to manage the car, especially for the rear passengers, which other brands of passengers could not manage.

This control of Bentley owners even extends to the research and development field of Bentley's new car. In the process of new car design and research and development, Bentley brand fully listened to customers' feedback, made innovations and breakthroughs on this basis, and comprehensively optimized the car body design, infotainment system and cockpit ride experience that customers were most concerned about. Taking Xintianyue, which just went on the market this year, as an example, in order to improve the travel comfort of the rear passengers, after listening to the feedback from many car owners, according to the actual configuration choice, Xintianyue's rear leg space can be increased by 100mm at most, and the angle of the rear seat backrest can also be greatly adjusted to meet the needs of China customers for daily practicality and comfort.

The new Feichi also applies a series of innovative technologies. The rear passengers can adjust a series of in-car settings through the exclusive touch remote control device, thus creating an innovative luxury cockpit atmosphere, and the owner can also control the state of the whole vehicle in the luxurious and comfortable rear row. The brand-new flight touch screen remote control device is almost hidden in the console, and can be taken out for remote control at the touch of a button.

The remote control device can adjust and control various settings, including: sun visor, rear seat massage and rear air conditioner. In addition, the system can also preset some configurations in the car, such as adjusting the ambient lighting in the car. Another function I didn't expect before is that the rear passengers can also control the "flight" of the front of the car through this remote control device. B "logo is really a low-key and high-profile" player "with everything under control.

artist

In addition to being a racer and a player, Bentley owners also have a unique identity, that is, an artist, because every Bentley is independently built by the owner with his own taste and aesthetics. It can be said that there are no two identical leaves or two identical Bentley in the world. You can use your unlimited imagination to customize a work of art of your own.

In addition to the exterior interior color, material, texture and other items, Bentley's personalized customization department Mulliner can also meet the personalized customization needs of Bentley customers. In Moulinas's world, anything is possible. From embroidering surnames on leather interiors to professional body customization, the skillful craftsmen in Mulliner department can turn the dream of extreme customization into reality, and Mulliner has also raised the beauty of exclusive luxury customization to a new height. This time, I even learned that Bentley can even provide shape customization, which means you can design the appearance lines and overall shape of a car yourself, but unfortunately ... I'm too embarrassed to ask the price ~

In terms of production technology, Bentley's technicians can also be called artists. The whole process from design to manufacturing is handed over from one artist to another. Of course, it must have started with the artist who owns this car. Bentley from body welding, painting, power and transmission system assembly, to interior leather sewing. And the production of veneer, all by pure manual skills. Compared with other automobile assembly lines, the production line of Bentley Crewe Factory only moves 15.24cm per minute. Experienced Bentley craftsmen correct production errors in millimeters and strive to achieve perfect quality in every detail. Adhering to such a concept of Excellence, it took more than 65,438+06 weeks to build each Bentley car, and some even reached an amazing 20 weeks, thus achieving an extraordinary artistic product.

To take a more extreme example, the double-diamond quilting embroidery process has been specially customized, and the contrast effect is enhanced by two kinds of suture colors with modern aesthetic style. The quilting embroidery process of luxury cockpit needs about 400,000 stitches, in which each diamond pattern consists of 765,438+02 stitches, and each stitch points to the center of the diamond accurately. The research and development took more than 18 months, which reflected the Bentley brand's supreme attention to detail, and only artists could spend so much time concentrating on creation. There are many such examples in Bentley cars.

pioneer

Don't think there is a mistake here. Why did Bentley suddenly become a Chevrolet ... I just want to talk about this new driving experience, because this SUV can really let Bentley go to some places that he couldn't go before, and help Bentley explore many markets while helping car owners to explore their journey.

Tim Yue's car is for explorers who are eager to discover a new world. The inspiration of the car name Bentayga also comes from the vast natural scenery, from the Canary Islands of Spain in the subtropical region and the local Roque? Bentayiga Rock Peak is famous for its infinite magnificent bird's eye view of the peak, which has won the love of countless adventure climbers. As a car with luxury and strong performance, what Tim Yue needs to do is to have strong power, luxurious style and daily practicality to realize fearless and durable luxury travel for customers.

While being widely favored by customers, Tim Yue has also demonstrated outstanding performance strength in many places around the world. Tim Yue once competed fiercely with the world champion of kite surfing in Denmark, crossed the vast deserts of Chile and Bolivia, embarked on an ice and snow trip in Iceland, trekked the sand dunes in the Middle East, and set a new record in the mass production SUV category in Pax Peak mountaineering competition. In addition, Bentley Tim Yue Extreme Edition has become one of the fastest ultra-luxury SUVs in the world, with a top speed of 305 kilometers per hour.

I've done something with Tim Yue before? Road experience, cross-country ability and passability are excellent, but the key is that you are willing to give up. I can only say that Bentley has actually prepared a lot for you. As long as you want to use it, Tim Yue can accompany you to explore new destinations at any time. With the Bentley Dynamic Driving Mode and the optional All-terrain Kit, the newly added V8 can realize extremely rich and comprehensive road and off-road driving settings. Just turn the knob, the driver can easily switch between up to eight modes (four roads and four off-road), and choose the most suitable dynamic settings for various roads or road conditions, and then you can enjoy the development process very luxuriously, which may be one of the dreams of Chevrolet owners. ...

hedonism

When it comes to luxury, Bentley never gives in and leaves no room for his opponent, so it also makes the owner a hedonist, especially in the car. ? I don't want to repeat too much about interior space and materials; ? Seat comfort; ? Luxury configuration and so on. Let's talk about the special things that we don't usually notice.

When flying, the fully electric dining table on the back of the front seat can be unfolded automatically with the touch of a button. The dining table descends slowly, leveling its position automatically, exposing the leather finish. A groove is designed on the surface of the desktop for placing a pen or an electronic stylus. Long press the button, the desktop can be stored automatically. This option is ceremonial enough and luxurious enough.

In terms of hearing, the trip these days has also made my ears enjoy it. The brand-new Feichi provides customers with three sound systems to choose from. The standard system has 10 speakers with a power of 650 watts. Bang. & amp？ Olufsen is a system with 65,438+0,500 watts of power and 65,438+06 speakers. Customers who pursue a fashionable lifestyle can also choose a speaker grille with lighting function, and adopt the BeoSonic system used for the first time in automobile products. This new technology uses a simple and intuitive one-click user interface to complete tuning. Audio enthusiasts can choose the Naim system with "active bass converter" in the front seat, with a power of 2200 watts and 18 speakers, and enjoy the shocking feeling brought by eight sound modes.

In addition to the enjoyment in the car, Bentley is also a brand that can be played. Mulliner, Bentley's personalized customization department, has launched a number of personalized customization options for Tim Yue models, creating a number of exclusive packages suitable for outdoor sports, including eagle hunting packages, fly fishing packages, hunting packages, equestrian packages, etc., to meet customers' pursuit of the ultimate luxury lifestyle.

Having said so much about the identity of Bentley owners, I finally want to say a cognition that may be a breakthrough. Before, you might think that Bentley owners or the whole brand would be a little older, but in fact, Bentley is in line with the trend from product experience to corporate vision, and there are still some leading ideas and practices. Let's find out by car first.

In terms of intelligent interconnection configuration that young people are most concerned about at present, Bentley is also equipped with a series of leading intelligent configurations specially designed for drivers and passengers. ? Can the owner pass mine except the multifunctional car machine? The remote service realized by Bentley application has been fully upgraded to meet the high expectation of cutting-edge technology and various functions, including: Find the vehicle, remote locking, vehicle status and details, and parking heater.

Bentley is also equipped with an embedded SIM card, so mine? Bentley interconnection makes it unnecessary for customers to configure their own data connections. Mine? Bentley Internet service is constantly updated to meet the needs of Bentley customers, and its exclusive application is also applicable to Apple and Android systems. Capacitive fingerprint identification technology was developed by Mulliner, the personalized customization department of Bentley Motors, and has been applied to Tim Yue's in-vehicle system to create a safe storage space in the car and create a safer driving journey for Bentley customers. This is also a special pioneering technology experience.

Environmental protection is also a pioneering attitude. The travel experience advocated by Bentley brand not only includes pure driving pleasure and luxury and comfort, but also is an ultra-luxury lifestyle that conforms to the concept of sustainable development. Bentley brand recently announced "beyond? 100 "business strategy, committed to leading the ultra-luxury travel mode in line with the concept of sustainable development. As one of the world's largest manufacturers of 12 cylinder gasoline engines, Bentley will gradually stop producing internal combustion engines in the next decade, aiming to lead a sustainable future ultra-luxury travel.

Bentley brand plans to launch two plug-in hybrid models in 20021year, and launch the first pure electric Bentley model in 2025. Subsequently, Bentley will realize plug-in hybrid or pure electric vehicles for all cars in 2026. By 2030, all products of Bentley brand will be pure electric vehicles, fully achieving carbon neutrality. This business strategy explains the determination of Bentley brand to continue to provide extraordinary travel experience in the next century.

For all the products of Bentley at present, although the styles are different, you will find that the tonality is surprisingly consistent, that is, to meet the needs of your various travel scenes, you must use Bentley's unique way. You will also find that Bentley can meet more and more scenes, which means that the identity of Bentley owners will be more and more. Perhaps this is Bentley's eternal belief. Founder Mr. Bentley's concept of building a car: "build a good car, build an express car, and build the most outstanding car of its class" is still realized in the speeding, overtaking and GT. What we have to do is to become a real car owner as soon as possible ~ every day will be a day of Versailles.
