Bentley offers a petite green ride with Continental DC

With so many luxury cars stepping in the green arena, it’s clear that drivers with overweight wallets don’t need to sacrifice driving performance for fuel efficiency. The latest brand to join the bandwagon of green luxurious cars is Bentley with its Continental DC (yeah DC stands for Direct Current) electric car. And its not that people who can afford this brand will go for this green baby only because of the rising gasoline prices. It’s actually out there to lure all the well heeled to do something for their environment. And what better way of doing it then by driving a Bentley! Although not very good-looking, this battery powered car is powered by a 24-volt electric motor producing 0.5 horsepower and 5.1 pound-feet of torque. More flavor is added by a pair of 12-volt batteries.
