The world of Bridgerton whisks us away to Regency London, a time of opulent balls, society gossip rags, and, of course, horse-drawn carriages. But what if these characters found themselves catapulted into the fast lane of the 21st century? Let’s ditch the stately carriages and see what motors the Bridgertons would be cruising around in:
Daphne, the eldest daughter, is known for her elegance and grace. Her car would undoubtedly reflect that. Imagine her gliding down Park Lane in a sleek Bentley Continental GT.
It’s a quintessentially British symbol of luxury, with a timeless design and undeniable chic, perfect for a lady of the ton navigating the modern social scene.
The powerful engine and smooth handling would allow her to make grand entrances and discreet departures, just like she used to with her carriage.
Anthony Bridgerton, the stoic Viscount, would need a car that exudes power and authority. A top-of-the-range Range Rover would be his perfect match.
It’s a capable and luxurious SUV, perfect for traversing the bustling city streets or escaping to the countryside for a weekend hunt.
The Range Rover’s imposing presence would command respect wherever Anthony goes, much like his imposing stature used to on the ballroom floor.
The spacious interior would also be ideal for the Viscount, who often finds himself ferrying around his younger siblings and their many friends.
Eloise Bridgerton, the fiercely independent and intellectual middle sister, would probably scoff at the idea of needing a car at all.
Public transportation or a bicycle would likely be her preferred mode of transport, allowing her to remain independent and environmentally conscious.
However, if she did succumb to the allure of a motor vehicle, it would have to be something practical and environmentally friendly.
A Tesla Model 3 would fit the bill – stylish, with its sleek lines and futuristic design, sustainable thanks to its electric engine, and perfect for making a statement about her progressive ideals.
Colin Bridgerton, the charming and adventurous Bridgerton brother, would undoubtedly crave a car that reflects his playful spirit.
A classic Mini Cooper would be ideal. It’s nimble and a joy to zip around town in, perfect for exploring hidden corners of the city (just don’t tell Penelope Featherington where he’s off to!).
The iconic design and customisable options would allow Colin to express his unique personality, just like his flamboyant waistcoats used to.
Penelope Featherington, the underestimated wallflower, would surprise everyone with her choice of wheels. A Volkswagen Beetle, a classic car with a quirky personality, would be her perfect match. It’s unique and reliable, just like Penelope herself.
The spacious interior would be perfect for carting around her sewing supplies and perhaps even the occasional basket overflowing with gossip pamphlets.
The unassuming nature of the Beetle would allow Penelope to blend in with the hustle and bustle of London life, while still managing to stand out from the crowd, just like she secretly observes the events of high society.
Queen Charlotte, the flamboyant and powerful monarch, deserves a car that commands attention. A Rolls-Royce Phantom would be a fitting choice.
It’s the epitome of regality, with a luxurious interior fit for a queen and a powerful engine that ensures a smooth and effortless ride. The imposing presence of the Phantom would clear a path for Her Majesty wherever she goes, just like the royal pronouncements used to in court.
