The start of production of Bentley�s new car is a response to two factors: the high demand for the old Azure since production stopped and the admiration that was seen in Los Angeles when the Arnage Drophead Coup� prototype was put on show. It brings to mind the life style on the Italian Riviera and the French Riviera, justifying the renaissance of the name Azure.
The new Bentley Azure is an elegant four-seater convertible and has a styling that could be called glamorous, inspired by the Park Ward S1 Drophead Coup� from 1955 and used on the original Azure presented in 1995. The interior is larger at the front and at the back than the previous Bentley Azure convertible and the canvas roof opens automatically - minimum 25 seconds.
It shares its modern cabin, its wheelbase and engine with the Bentley Arnage, that is to say a 6.75 litre V8 biturbo that produces 450bhp and a peak torque of 875Nm. It also benefits from the comfort suspension recently mounted on the Arnage R. The interior design, with new seats, floating armrests and ambient lighting.
