Bentley will end production of its "iconic" 12-cylinder petrol engine in April next year.

More than 100,000 W12s have been built at the firm's factory in Crewe, Cheshire over the past 20 years.

 

The British luxury car manufacturer announced on Wednesday it will halt production of the famed W12 engine, launched in 2003, as it moves towards an electric alternative.

I wonder if people in 1910 were saying" Will ever be a time when I don't have to hand crank my car to get it started?"
