This tank is the most luxurious ever
Bentley is an iconic brand that conjures images of speed, agility, luxury, and luxury. It comes in six-figure packages of the finest wood, leather, aluminum, and aluminum. It is prim and proper and the opposite of the tank, the utilitarian military vehicle used by armies around the globe. However, their differences didn’t stop a group Russians from marrying them in what some might consider unholy matrimony. We’ve watched the project slowly develop over the past few months. Now we have video footage of the machine reaching speeds of 81 miles an hour (130 km per hour).
For a Bentley Continental GT that can reach speeds of over 200 mph (321 km/h), eighty-one mph seems a bit slow. However, the top speed of 81 mph is much higher than the desired 62 mph (100 km/h). The Bentley tank can reach speeds of up to 81 mph, but it is not fast enough for luxury cars with tank treads. This project had to overcome hurdles. The treads were a problem that could slide off during sharp turns, so it took some time to get the doors installed.
The Bentley Continental GT Ultratank looks amazing. It is hard to imagine how it could not be a talking point wherever it goes. It’s not often that you see a tank in real life. It is even rarer to see high-end luxury cars transformed into tanks with unusual treads. Because of its elevated ride height and rubber treads, the Ultratank is capable of handling steep grades and off-road driving. The Bentley’s top speed was 81 mph, but it could only travel at 31 mph (50 km/h) before the Ultratank. It was important to note that the brakes didn’t work in the early stages of construction.
This video is very long and explains the build process prior to hitting the road for speed runs. If you prefer to jump right into the action, it’s around the 23-minute mark. It is quite amazing to watch the Bentley Ultratank accelerate at an impressive pace. It’s a great looking, sounding, and proving that a crazy idea can be made a reality by enough willpower and ingenuity.
