Summer is upon us, and all auto manufacturers are prepping their next latest and greatest machines. While some tend to apply heavy camouflage\u00a0such as Mercedes-Benz and their E-Class<\/a> others like Bentley, have used a\u00a0slightly smaller amount to give use a glimpse of what’s to come.<\/p>\n

Spotted tearing up the Nurburgring\u00a0in Germany, 2017 models appear to be heavily\u00a0influenced by the Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 Concept. Notably the front lights and aggressive\u00a0front grille. On top of the lights, the front end is wider than current generation models with more refined rear taillamps.<\/p>\n

2017 Bentley’s aren’t expected\u00a0to debut until\u00a0early next year, possibly at the Geneva motor show. If you are looking for a sophisticated luxury coupe, we’ve got plenty of new Bentley Continental\u00a0GT<\/a> and used Bentley Continental GT for sale in Dubai<\/a>, Sharjah<\/a> and Abu Dhabi<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Earlier in June,\u00a0a 2017 Bentley Continental\u00a0GTC was also caught testing on the infamous race track putting in some power lap with similar exterior changes to the coupe model.<\/p>\n

Both test models are equipped with a W12 6.0-litre motor which means the 12 cylinder motor sticks around for a few more years. The V8 is expected to return, and a hybrid drivetrain<\/a> is set to join the line up\u00a0shortly after launch.<\/p>\n

Upon entering the next generation, 2017 Bentley Continental models will utilise the MSB Platform. Comprised of multiple materials, it improves weight distribution equating to better handling, efficiency and overall performance. This platform also makes it’s way onto the 2017 Porsche Panamera<\/a> and Audi A8<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
