Bentley Blower Jnr
The Little Car Company and Bentley’s Heritage Collection have created a 85% scale replica of the 1929 4½-litre Supercharged Bentley. To ensure the engineering and design meet high standards, The Little Car Company will subject the Bentley Blower Jnr to a durability program spanning 5,000 miles across three continents. This includes real-world driving and usage at various proving grounds. Additionally, the car will undergo seatbelt testing to achieve EU L7e Type Approval for road legality.
The Bentley Blower Jr. exemplifies innovation with its cutting-edge 48V electric powertrain. This system integrates seamlessly with a potent 15 kW (20 bhp) motor, delivering both power and efficiency for an exhilarating driving experience.
This vehicle has a top speed of 45 mph / 72 km/h in the UK/EU (25 mph / 40 km/h in the USA) and a range of 65 miles. Its tandem seating arrangement exudes an intimate charm, while its construction from authentic materials ensures both timeless elegance and durability.
Bentley globally tests the Blower Jr., facing challenges in lighting, restraints, and modern regulations. Six sleek, cutting-edge vehicles undergo rigorous testing procedures in preparation for their anticipated debut in the 2024 production lineup.
A Bentley Blower Jnr embarks on a festive journey in Switzerland, not only undergoing rigorous durability testing but also showcasing its versatility by fetching a Christmas tree, infusing the test with holiday spirit.
As the testing progresses, the Blower Jr. consistently demonstrates its prowess, exhibiting unmatched performance and reliability. With each obstacle conquered, it solidifies its status as a beacon of luxury, innovation, and festive cheer.
Bentley Communications and The Little Car Company wish everyone a Merry Christmas and anticipate showcasing Bentley Blower Jnr in 2024.
