The teaser video clip shown on this page depicts a new Bentley which is powered by an engine that uses bio-fuels. According to the marketing video this will be the most powerful Bentley ever built.

From the flashing shots it appears to be based on the GTC body style and the sound it makes is ferocious. A date of March 2009 flashes by within a second on the video so presumably this is when the car will be publicly unveiled. A major International Motor Show in Geneva happens to be scheduled for March too.

Currently the most powerful Bentley is the Continental GTC Speed with makes 600hp (447kW) and 750Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque.

On March 3rd, Bentley will reveal its fastest and most powerful production car ever at the 2009 International Geneva Motor Show.

This new model is very much the extreme Bentley, delivering the performance of a supercar.

Importantly, it pioneers FlexFuel technology, running seamlessly on biofuel, gasoline or a mix of the two, thereby underpinning Bentley’s environmental commitment to the use of renewable and sustainable fuel in the future.

Well it's a Twin Turbo+biofuel it should have minimum 650hp, biofuel can handle more boost being a higher octane than gasoline. Should be a deadly ride.
