Introduced in 1952, the Bentley R Type Continental fixed head coupé was built until 1955 along with the Bentley R Type model. The model was the fastest four-seater in the world when it came out, reaching a top speed of 120 mph. The engine was the same F-head, 6-cylinder engine with a capacity of 4.5 liters than featured on the standard R Type, with tuned carburetors and a different exhaust. The design of the Bentley R Type Continental was a throwback to the low and sleek Bentley GTs from the 1930s. Imagined and developed by a team of engineers from Bentley working hand in hand with designers from H.J. Mulliner, the body of the Bentley R Type Continental fixed head coupe was extremely well made and aerodynamics were one of the main focus. Instead of the usual ash-frame body, the model used a construction system that required only steel. A few chassis were consigned to coachbuilders of choice and most models were fastback designs.
