Bentley showcases 1920s Super Sports alongside new model launch
At an event in Monterey where Bentley debuted its new Supersports, the company also brought an original Super Sports from its archive—one of just 18 built between 1925 and 1927. That early model was a shortened, lightened version of the standard 3 Litre car, designed for speed and driver engagement, with bodywork customized by outside coachbuilders and a transmission lever mounted outside the cabin.
