How Are Bentley's Configurator Cars So Realistic? Here's The Reason Why

British carmaker Bentley is known for its extremely luxurious cars and the world's fastest SUV, the Bentayga. Bentley owners, though, come from different parts of the globe and while many may want the same car, they usually want to ensure it looks like an extension of their own personality.

Bentley's online configurator and the Inspirator app are usually the answers to cater to this demand for bespoke cars. It may work like any other car configurator around, but the realistic models and the attention to detail paid to the virtual cars makes them look ultra realistic.

So, who did Bentley turn to and how did they make the cars so realistic? Let's find out...

Other than the surfaces, RealTimeUK went the extra mile to ensure that all the small details were shown off perfectly.

For example, the company first made one single stitch,with the leather surface sculpted around it to create as much realism as possible.

That single stitch, was then applied all along the carso that each stitch was consistent, irrespective of the angle it was used.

The same process was used for a variety of finishes to the leather, whether it was perforated, quilted or even hand cross stitch.
