There is actually a black badge version of the rolls which is like their equivalent to Bentleys speed models and this dawn was not one of them. But either way Bentley have AWD and launch control so they’re always going to win
@@lbnewell23 it wouldn’t have mattered anyway. More than the power and drag, the main reason rolls Royce lost is because they refuse to dump power like that. It’s luxury first, everything else after. I wouldn’t be surprised if the ecu was actually gradually increasing the throttle instead of dumping it as he was demanding it to
@@kealebogapelotshweu5918 all I know for sure is everything on the outside that’s chrome on the normal car is black and it has more power with a “more aggressive” tune in terms of responsiveness to the drivers inputs. But it’s still a rolls so they will still be smooth and delayed just not as much
Let's be honest here, The Bentley is more of a GT car and you can generally open up the taps and you will still have a massive grin on your face everytime, the Rolls Royce is more of a luxury Limo kind of car, Everytime you want a relaxed, comfortable kind of ride and to be a bit showy, is generally where the Rolls Royce does best,
To me the rolls is incredibly ugly, and the bentley is easily luxurious enough. Plus is gorgeous and gas some performance, specially the speed. I wouldnt even bother with a rolls, but to tell you the truth i d rather buy an aston or a gt3 if i had the money.
@@alexanderdunning6586 i m saying that for s similar πrice i d get a gt3 or a turbo and not a bentλey gt even tηough a reαlly like it as car. And if i could by both, i still buy a gt3 touring and an aston martin.
Probably should’ve done a Aston superleggera or Ferrari Portifino or BMW m8 or Mercedes S63 convertible something more compatible with horsepower. But this was interesting. 🙌🏽
Arguably the most pointless drag race ever done on this channel and that's why it's so much fun. The founders of Bentley and Rolls Royce are probably turning in their graves knowing that their cars are being used like this though.
5:57 Family: So what do you do at work? The other 3 Carwow crew in the Bentley: We sit in a Bentley Convertible with 2 other burly men, hold onto a shopping bag each whilst another lunatic drives the Bentley in excess of 100mph, and lose my cap doing so.
If you're gonna do a drag race with a Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible it would make sense to get a Rolls Royce Dawn Black Badge as well. This just seems pointless
For the RR, yep - stuff like that truly is more important to them than dumb HP or speed. Not for the Bentleys, though: they definitely aim to be performance cars (as well as very luxurious) - they want to deliver it all for that playboy. 😎
Imagine the owners of such cars doing this. More important to been seen wafting around in ultimate luxury than dashing around blowing your freshly coiffed hair everywhere
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 a Porsche and a Rolls Royce aren't really the same thing. Imagine turning up at Royal Ascot in epic quick time 911 turbo convertible having launched it serveral times off the traffic lights with your wife after she's spent hours at the hairdressers wearing whats left of her hat, then there's the other guy in his slower Rolls Royce convertible with his wife who's smiling looking like she's just walked out of the hairdressers. Porsche and Rolls Royce big difference
I think these two cars need to be head to head in a track. That the true environment Bentley and RR made them for, not drag race. Or better yet rallying them in the desert.
We have a lot of family friends with Bentleys and Rolls Royces and I think Bentleys are better as a driver's car while Rolls Royces are better to be driven in. I would personally take a sporty GTC but I know some people aren't as into cars as us - people who watch automotive RU-vid - and would rather be driven in ultimate luxury
@@Bertha076 you are correct! And I love a Bentley but it is not a Rolls Royce! It's one of those names that has cultivated itself in the culture as the ultimate statement and the custodians of the said name have not let that image down! No shade to Bentley! Again I love Bentley!
Bentley all day. luxury and speed. Even though, the rolls royce is more luxurious the bentley really isn't far behind. But is much faster, so you can have fun while in luxury. The Bentley is just a overall better car in my opinion.
the Rolls Royce may have lost the race, but..... it will never lose its interior comfort. Im pretty sure RR might said: you may be quick, but not as quick as people getting relax in a Rolls Royce
to be fair, the Rolls is based on a design from 2010 and is due for an update soon. Same with Bentley a few years ago: Bentley's 2004 platform was used until 2019
I would love to buy the powerful Bentley Continental GT Speed convertible for £234,000 rather than buying the Rolls-Royce Dawn for £300,000! I think the Rolls-Royce is good for people who loves luxurious cars and the Bentley is good for people who like luxurious sporty cars like me!
I love the 6-litre twin-turbo W12 engine of the Bentley! I love sports cars with W engines like this Bentley and the Bugatti Veyron and the Bugatti Chiron with that lovely W16 engine under the bonnet!
The Race was not fair due to the fact that the Bentley is the “speed” version and the Rolls Royce is the normal version ; the Rolls Royce Black Badge was supposed to raced against the speed
Bro stop talking if u didn't already know the Bentley was gonna win . He told us the specs in the beginning, the Bentley was a lot lighter, pushed like 100 something more HP, it's AWD and the rolls is RWD. what more did u need lmao ya saw "v12" and sweared it was gonna be a good race. - Nico on jake's acc
That Bentley surely lives up to its name, lol. If they named it, some fancy synonym for acceleration I think would be fitting, too. I mean O-M-G, that launch and the sound, truly a car you can daily, be extremely comfortable in AND have fun with. Also, the "Speed" of deceleration tho, literally spat in the face of the Rolls and if I had one and drive it fast regularly, on the autobahn or in Mexico (ya know), I'd be certainly thinking about changing my brakes.... 😬😬
@@AntoniIvanov-rq7dy За съжаление, да... То като цяло и при двата модела, е разочароващ и фактът, че за толкова пари не получаваш твърд гюрук, което според мен е доста важно, за постигането на ултра лукса и комфорта.
Thank you so much Centurian Automotive for giving your insane Rolls-Royce Dawn to Mat for this insane and luxurious drag race! Give more cars to Mat for future drag races!
@@Black_Magic_Pearl The comment wasn't that funny for you to laugh your arse off but ok... FYI, it is you who needs to wake the f up, do you seriously think that this current situation will last? Seriously? If you do, I'd like to sell you a staircase
Can you make a video of vis kosova nissan gtr 2500hp 1.4 mile in 8 seconds maybe faster or Googi Audi tt rs i don’t know how much hp but 1.4 mile 8 sec maybe faster
People say the RR is more of a luxury car than the Bentley, and they're probably right, but I'd take that Bentley 100 times out of 100. I'm sure I'd be plenty pleased with its luxury. Hell, I was impressed the first time I sat in my Focus. Both the Rolls and the Bentley go overboard on luxury anyway, only the Bentley has superior performance and also looks better. Less expensive, too. Not that price is much of a factor for people who are shopping cars like these.
