Little Car Company: Blower put to the test 🎥

REVIEW The Bentley Blower Junior from British manufacturer The Little Car Company drives 8,000 kilometers on three continents as part of a durability test. In Switzerland, the test car picks up a Christmas tree.

 

Before production of the downsized Bentley Blower starts in 2024, six vehicles will undergo extensive tests in which they have to prove their durability and driving experience. These are part of the program to obtain EU type approval L7e for road approval. The Little Car Company's first exclusive sales partner worldwide is Schmohl Exclusive Cars AG in Zurich.

High demands on quality
The little Bentley Blower was developed in close collaboration between The Little Car Company and Bentley's Heritage Collection. It was inspired by Team Car No. 2, probably the most famous and most valuable Bentley in the world. The Junior model is handcrafted to particularly high quality standards and is characterized by many beautiful details inspired by the original Blower.

The Little Car Company is now carrying out a durability test over a distance of more than 8000 kilometers on three continents to prove the high technical quality and functionality of the design. The mission got off to a festive start in keeping with the season. One of the test cars was sent to snow-covered Switzerland to pick up a Christmas tree. The route shown in the film and pictures led from Schänis via Lantsch, where the Christmas tree was loaded, over the Maloja Pass to St. Moritz.

Authentic replica of the blower
The Bentley Blower Junior consists of 700 parts and is made entirely by hand from authentic materials. The rear section of the two-part body is made of high-quality carbon fiber. The hood with its numerous air vents is traditionally handcrafted from aluminum and fastened with classic leather buckles. The Blower Junior, a true-to-scale replica of the 1929 Bentley and scaled down by a factor of 0.85, has a 48 V electric drive with a 15 kW (20 hp) motor. It has a top speed of 72 km/h and an estimated range of around 100 kilometers.
