[Bentley](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bentley-blower-jnr) is bringing attention back to its iconic 1930 [Speed Six](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mulliner) automobile with a reconstructed variation that celebrates the original along with a car dubbed Car Zero. It is a perfect design for those who are a fan of [vintage premium cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aston-martin-valiant) and honors history to a precise scale.

The design relies on the original drawings and materials that are from nearly a century ago. Notably, only 12 will be created for customers along with the test model Car Zero -- all of these are built by hand, making each an artisanal masterpiece. A single car is priced at $2 million USD. Similar to the original design, Car Zero is powered by a 6.5-liter straight-six engine that has about 205 horsepower.
