    Cargo Ship Burning In The Atlantic Carrying Over 1,000 Porsches Nearly 200 Bentleys and More

    If you have not been living under a rock, you would have heard about the Felicity Ace that was on its way to the United States carrying 1000s of cars but has since been evacuated following a fire on board.

    Felicity Ace was sailing from Emden, Germany, to Davisville in Rhode Island when a fire broke out on one of its decks. While it’s still too early to tell what caused the fire, it was serious enough that it couldn’t be put out using the equipment that the crew had access to onboard.

    Currently, the ship is drifting in the Atlantic Ocean with chances of salvaging any of the cars onboard pretty much zero.

    Autoblog managed to get hold of Porsche as well as Bentley where it was confirmed that 1,100 Porsches are on board as well as 189 Bentleys.

    We know there are also Lamborghinis onboard but how many exactly is not yet known. A total of 2,500 cars can be shopped at once so the remainder is made up of Audis and VWs.

    A Porsche spokesperson has confirmed to Autoblog that details of the cars are known and customers affected by the maritime disaster are being contacted by their respective dealers. “While it remains too early to confirm what occurred and next steps, we are – along with our colleagues at Porsche AG – supporting our customers and our dealers as best we can to find solutions.”

    Most importantly, the ship’s 22 crewmembers were rescued by the Portuguese Navy, but the fate of the cars at this stage remains unknown.

    • We have done countless launch control starts in countless cars but this has to be one of the biggest surprises so far. It's not the fastest we have tested but the way it gets 2.2 tons off the line is something to experience. Get the British brute on some grippy tarmac and you will be blown away!

0 to 100 km/h is claimed to be 3.6s and that claim is accurate!

    • First time seeing the new Bentley Bentayga S in the metal and wow it is striking.

Those 22" wheels look superb, especially in this spec.

Starts from R4,695,000 and that gets you a twin-turbo V8 delivering 542 hp (404 kW) and 770 Nm of torque.

    • #MercedesAMGMonday done right with the brutal AMG GT Black Series recently snapped by @matts_cars_za for @amg_driving_academy_za 😎

This is the first time a GT Black Series has been shot on track in SA and potentially the first time one has posed with the slightly less hardcore AMG GT R Pro.
