Bentley Bentayga
"...cessories that you can put in the back of the the Bentayga which is the Bentley SUV to protect this one. The..."
The Bentley Bentayga is a luxury SUV made by Bentley. It’s designed to be comfortable for passengers and practical for carrying things. People often talk about add-ons and protective accessories because it’s meant to be used and kept in good condition.
The Bentley Bentayga is Bentley’s luxury SUV, built for comfort, refinement, and a high-end driving experience. It’s the kind of vehicle that often gets discussed alongside accessories and protection items because owners may want to preserve the interior and cargo area for everyday use. In a podcast, it may come up when talking about how people outfit the vehicle for travel and daily practicality.
Bentley GTS and GTCS
"so Bentley just launched their brand new GTS and GTCS the GT being the coupe the GTC being the convertible and it's a higher horsepower higher torque more muscular more darker aesthetic version of the coupe and the convertible"
Bentley just introduced two new versions of its cars: one is the coupe and one is the convertible. They’re meant to feel stronger and more powerful, with more engine output and a darker, sportier look.
Bentley’s GTS and GTCS are new model variants built around the same core idea: a more muscular, higher-output take on the standard coupe/convertible lineup. The host describes them as the coupe (GTS) and convertible (GTCS) with higher horsepower and higher torque, plus a darker, more aggressive aesthetic.
horsepower
"and it's a higher horsepower higher torque more muscular more darker aesthetic version of the coupe and the convertible"
Horsepower is a way to describe how strong the engine is. More horsepower generally means the car can speed up more quickly.
Horsepower is a measure of engine power—how much work the engine can do over time. In practice, higher horsepower usually helps the car accelerate harder, especially at higher speeds.
torque
"and it's a higher horsepower higher torque more muscular more darker aesthetic version of the coupe and the convertible"
Torque is the engine’s twisting force. More torque usually helps the car feel stronger when you start moving or when you’re climbing or pulling.
Torque is the twisting force an engine produces. It strongly affects how quickly a car can accelerate from low speeds and how easily it pulls under load.
car manufacturers loan those cars
"so we take them there car manufacturers loan those cars to transport and so maybe next time we'll bring up"
Sometimes car companies lend cars out for events or testing. That means the cars aren’t owned by the people doing the trip—they’re provided by the automaker.
This describes a common automotive media/testing workflow: automakers provide vehicles to organizations or journalists for specific transport or evaluation purposes. The key idea is that the cars are supplied by the manufacturer rather than being privately owned.
green market
"we're also downside of the green market [368.5s] at the same time that we speak very busy weekend"
“Green market” is a way of talking about the part of the car market that’s focused on eco-friendly cars. The host is basically saying that even if that market is slower, the dealership can still be very busy.
“Green market” here appears to mean a market segment or pricing environment tied to environmentally focused vehicles or incentives. The speaker contrasts it with being busy at the dealership, implying demand conditions can vary by market segment.
test drives
"very busy weekend and I guess the weekends are [373.7s] very busy here for the dealership for test drives and new customers coming in"
A test drive is when you drive a car yourself before buying it. Dealerships often get more people doing test drives on busy weekends.
Test drives are structured drives that let prospective buyers experience a car’s feel, comfort, and driving dynamics before purchasing. Dealerships often see higher test-drive volume during weekends and end-of-month periods.
end of the month
"also [385.5s] the end of the month always a big big end of the month [388.3s] Oh really?"
Dealers often get busier at the end of the month because sales goals and promotions line up then. The hosts are saying that’s when more people come in.
“End of the month” is used as a dealership sales rhythm: many stores see increased customer activity and pressure to hit monthly targets. The hosts connect it to foot traffic and new-customer flow.
Bentley Palm Beach
"Absolutely absolutely well here at Bentley Palm Beach you're really in the right [416.3s] we're actually the number one volume dealer in the US"
Bentley Palm Beach is a car dealership for Bentley cars in Palm Beach, Florida. In this segment, it’s where the hosts are talking about events, customers, and their local partnerships.
Bentley Palm Beach is a Bentley dealership location in Palm Beach, Florida. The hosts use it as the setting for their partnership and dealership activity, including customer traffic and test drives.
elevator to put your I think in some cases up to four cars
"yeah and that building for the ones who don't know have a elevator to put your I think in some cases up to [455.0s] four cars that's right to go up to your apartment whatever the floor is 60 70"
They’re describing a building where a special elevator can lift cars up to your floor. Instead of driving into a garage ramp, your car can be raised to where you live.
This describes a multi-car parking elevator system used in a high-rise building, where cars are lifted to the resident’s floor. It’s a specialized logistics feature that changes how vehicles are stored and accessed compared with standard garage ramps.
