Is the Bentley Supersports powerful enough for highway driving?

The Supersports features a pure internal combustion 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine producing 666 PS (657 bhp) and 800 Nm of torque. Unlike the hybrid-assisted Continental GT Speed, the Supersports is non-hybrid, which saves significant weight. It is also the first rear-wheel drive Continental GT ever produced for the road, featuring an upgraded eight-speed dual-clutch transmission with new clutches and bespoke shifting software. For buyers considering the Bentley Supersports, that matters because it affects how easy the car is to live with, whether for commuting, family use, long-distance driving or ownership costs. The useful way to read this is not as an isolated specification, but as a clue to how the car will feel in real daily use.
