The latest Bentley to sport the ‘T’ legend is the Azure T, whose twin-turbocharged V8 engine produces 500bhp and 1000Nm of torque – an 11 per cent increase in power and a 14 per cent increase in torque over its 450bhp/875Nm Azure. Over 90 per cent of that torque is available between 1800 and 3800rpm.
The engine and transmission of the Azure T are identical to those already employed in the Arnage T and Arnage Final Series saloons. The Azure’s suspension is carried over to the Azure T unaltered. The new five-spoke, two-piece 8.5J x 20-inch Sports alloy wheels are shod with 255/40 ZR20 Pirelli P Zero tyres. Other features include ‘Le Mans’ front wing vents, dark tint matrix grille and a sculpted, retractable Flying ‘B’ mascot.
