The 2013 Luxury Car Preview

After watching the new model trends introduced at the 2012 Paris Mondial de L'Automobile show last fall, it is needless to say that 2013 will be an exceptional vintage for the luxury car segment.

The Bentley GT Speed Coupe

The 2013 Luxury Car Preview 

Since the launch of the original GT concept at the Paris Salon in 2002, the W12-engined Continental range has gone from strength to strength with over 50,000 sales worldwide, making Bentley's factory in Crewe, England, the largest producer of 12-cylinder engines in the world. The W12 story continues to unfold and remains the ultimate expression of Bentley's engineering strength.

In-gear acceleration is equally breathtaking. The advanced software of the close-ratio 8-speed transmission enables quick shifting in Sport and Tiptronic modes.

Sporting a new V12 engine, it is built around highly-evolved transaxle architecture and features state-of-the-art components and control systems. The F12 Berlinetta's wheelbase is shorter, and its engine, dashboard and seats are lower in the chassis. A new suspension and gearbox layout helped reduce the car's rear volume. The result is a shorter, lower and narrower car than the previous V12 coupe.

The cabin has been optimized to ensure maximum usability of the interior space with additional luggage capacity behind the seats, which can also be easily reached thanks to the large aperture offered by the tailgate.

The new Jaguar F-TYPE is a two-seater, convertible sports car focused on performance, agility and driver involvement. The F-TYPE is a continuation of a sporting bloodline that stretches back more than 75 years and encompasses some of the most beautiful, thrilling and desirable cars ever built.

Jaguars have always defined sinuous, muscular simplicity and the F-TYPE is no exception, its shape being defined by two "heartlines" forming the front and rear wings. The focus on driver involvement and sporting performance in the F-TYPE is emphasized by the "one plus one" layout of the asymmetric cabin.

Porsche celebrated the world premiere of the new Cayman at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show. The third generation of the Cayman, which made its appearance before an international audience at the LA Convention Center, has been reengineered from the ground up. It is lower and longer, lighter and faster, more efficient and more powerful than ever.

The two-seat sport coupe will be launched on the market in two versions: Cayman and Cayman S. A longer wheelbase, wider track and larger wheels enhance the driving performance of the mid-engine sports car to a level without equal in its competitive class.

For the ultimate in open-air opulence, look no further than the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe. It combines old-fashioned elements like a hand-built interior with a fully modern power plant and the latest conveniences to create a truly unique convertible.


With wall-to-wall leather upholstery, fine metal trim and seemingly acres of exquisite wood, the cabin is as coddling as one would expect. The driver faces a large, thin-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel and a trio of simple, old-fashioned analog gauges, while rear-seat passengers are treated to an impressive amount of space.


A notable feature is a split trunk lid Rolls-Royce calls a picnic boot. It allows the vertical lid to which the license plate mounts to swing down, much like a pickup truck's tailgate, while the horizontal lid is conventionally hinged.
