Late last year, Bentley revealed its new and improved Supersports car. Hailed as the most dynamic car in the brand’s history – yet staying true to its unmistakable design and engineering – the limited run of 500 units was quick to sell-out, with motorsport enthusiasts vying to get their hands on the coupé months before its production.

Taking a closer look, the striking new Supersports delivers 666 PS twin-turbo V8 engine, without a hybrid system. In addition to its pure gasoline performance, the model comes as the first Continental GT to weigh less than two tonnes and the first with a rear wheel drive, putting the driver in full control of its agility and aerodynamic power. The two-seater model also includes a wealth of exterior design changes, all crafted in carbon fiber to give the car a more aggressive stance while adding 300 kg of downforce.

Hoping to show its respective buyers the true capabilities of the vehicle, Bentley recently unveiled a new short film starring extreme sport and motorsport athlete Travis Pastrana. Having featured in the 2025 film Aussie Shred, Pastrana brings his daredevil spirit into the Gymkhana-style visuals to channel the precise movements of the latest Supersports model around the brand’s headquarters in Crewe, England.

The film, aptly titled Supersports: FULL SEND, opens with the athlete taking his place behind the wheel of the coupé, surrounded by decades of history and forward-thinking innovation. On the fastest ever tour of the factory campus, he passes by several iconic automotives – such as the pre-war Bentleys in the Heritage Collection, Le Mans racers and concept cars – spotlighting the brand’s evolution and what promises to be a pioneering future.

For this particular film, petrol heads will also be able to notice a modified version of the Supersports, used to unlock the car’s highest potential. It is fitted with a hydraulic handbrake, named Mildred after the record-breaking Bentley motorist Mildred Bruce, and power braking for stretches of drifting and sustained sideways movement. Though these features won’t appear in the forthcoming model, they show how the body can be pushed to the limits with ease.

At the film’s premiere in Dubai, the Supersports made its regional debut with 400 guests in attendance, of which included fans, customers, industry experts along with brand ambassador Lucien Laviscount. After checking out the car in its Daybreak specification, comprising “Jetstream Matte” with a livery in “Arctica” and “Portofino,” a 12-meter wide screen was set up to immerse the crowds into the action-packed visuals, later initiating excitement and rapturous applause.

Bringing the film to life, Pastrana made his entrance on the Dubai waterfront in the modified Supersports that featured in the visuals. As the athlete stepped out against the backdrop of the green-lit Burj Al Arab, he spoke to Hypebeast about his experience driving the car. “I’ve never been able to take a stock vehicle and drift it around so effortlessly everywhere I’ve wanted to go,” he shared. “When you get in, it feels like a luxury Bentley car with its smooth power transition and stability. It’s unbelievable how you can slide it and feel in total control as you’re doing it.”

While superfans took turns to check out the modified edition, Bentley board member Christophe Georges explained how the event is providing a “reflection of the new brand strategy” saying, “We combined authenticity, new ambassadors, our extraordinary customers and unexpected product stories into one remarkable evening. Our attention now turns to working with each Supersports customer to take them on their own extraordinary journey, through an incredible world of specification possibilities.”
