Bentley have released the Azure T, the high performance version of their Azure convertible. The Bentley Azure T is powered by the standard Bentley 6¾ liter V8 engine which has been tuned to give it an output of five hundred horsepower, fifty more horsepower than the standard Azure and a top speed of two hundred and eighty eight kilometers an hour. The Azure T features a darker grille as well as Le Mans side vents and twenty inch five-spoke wheels which distinguish it from the Azure.

The limited-edition Final series will feature the Arnage T’s drivetrain, the Arnage R’s luxury appointments, and the Brooklands’ styling cues. The last 150 Arnages built will be Final Series cars that will pay homage to the Arnage’s 10 year run, the 6.75L engine’s 50th anniversary and Bentley’s 90 years of operation.

“For 10 years, Arnage has enjoyed extraordinary success at the pinnacle of the luxury saloon market,” says Dr. Franz-Josef Paefgen, chairman and CEO of Bentley. “The Final Series is a celebration of the Arnage era as Bentley prepares for the next generation of its flagship model.”

The Arnage Final Series will be based on the Arnage T and share its twin-turbo 6.75L V-8 engine. The 500 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque will be enough to move the 5699 lb car to 60 mph in 5.2 sec and reach a top speed of 179 mph. Power reaches the pavement through a ZF-sourced six-speed automatic transmission with manual shifting capabilities.
