Next-Gen Bentley Continental Will Share Platform With New Porsche Panamera

According to autocar, the next generation Bentley Continental will be riding on the same platform that will be developed for the all-new Porsche Panamera. It will make the switch from the old Phaeton’s D1 platform to the Porsche-developed MSB arhitecture which will result in significant weight loss and an more dynamic driving experience. There is also a very good chance that the new Continental will be available with Porsche’s new V8 engine which will provide a very good base for the future sportier derivatives. We will have to wait a while for this as it is only due to arrive late in 2016.
