Bentley Motors Limited is a British luxury automaker founded in 1919 by Walter Owen Bentley. The company started as Bentley Motors Limited and was initially focused on the production of high-performance luxury cars.
Bentley’s first major product was the Bentley 3 Litre, a luxury car that was introduced in 1919 and became popular with performance enthusiasts. In the 1920s, the company introduced a number of new models, including the Bentley 4½ Litre, a luxury car that was powered by a powerful inline four-cylinder engine.
In the 1930s, Bentley introduced the Bentley 8 Litre, a luxury car that featured a powerful V8 engine and a sophisticated chassis. During World War II, the company turned its focus to the production of military vehicles and equipment, and it did not return to the production of passenger cars until after the war.
In the 1950s, Bentley introduced the Bentley S1, a luxury car that featured a redesigned body and an updated suspension. In the 1960s, the company introduced the Bentley T-series, a luxury car that was powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine.
