Bentley Motors and The Little Car Company today unveil a road-legal, 85 per cent scale recreation of the most famous Bentley in the world.
‘Blower Jnr’, a recreation of the 1929 4½-litre Supercharged Team Car No.
2 in Bentley’s Heritage Collection, is the first road-legal car from The Little Car Company and the most sophisticated city car ever built.
Crafted by hand to the same standards as any Bentley, and adorned with beautiful details all inspired by the original Team car, Blower Jnr is built around a 48V electric powertrain with a 15 kW (20 bhp) motor, meaning a top speed of 45 mph / 72 km/h in the UK and EU (25 mph / 40 km/h in the USA due to legislation) and an expected range of around 65 miles, with tandem seating for two adults.
Blower Jnr is a collaboration between The Little Car Company and Bentley’s Heritage Collection.
The original Team Car from 1929 – insured for £25m – was used by The Little Car Company to master the design of Blower Jnr, with details recreated at a sizeable 85 per cent scale.
The result is a vehicle that will have even experts looking twice – with the car measuring 3.7 metres long and 1.5 metres wide.
Unlike The Little Car Company’s other products, Blower Jnr is fully road legal and designed specifically to be used on the road.
