What Happened
Bentley concluded its Monterey Car Week program on 21 August 2026. The new Supersports was shown throughout the week in its 'Dragon' livery of Black Crystal and Dragon Red II, a color transition that spans the width of the car. The Supersports also appeared at Stazione Remota and The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, while the Bentayga X Concept was displayed on the Concept Lawn at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
The 1926 Bentley Super Sports named 'Smoky' made its first visit to the United States during the week, marking a milestone in its 100-year history. Bentley also released a YouTube video covering its Monterey Car Week program.

For car enthusiasts and potential customers, that combination gives a single view of the brand's heritage and its current design direction.
