Originally announced under the working title of "Project Pinnacle" in 2015, it was first shown to the public under camouflage at the 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed. The Bullet commemorates Bristol's 70th anniversary, and is the company's first all-new car since the Bristol Fighter, which was produced between 2004 and 2011, as well as the first Bristol car to utilize a carbon fibre chassis. Power is sourced from a naturally aspirated 4.8-litre BMW V8 producing 400 bhp, but will be the last Bristol to do so before switching to forced induction engines.

Xtrac Limited Xtrac Limited, also known as Xtrac Transmission Technology, is a British engineering company founded in 1984 by the former Hewland engineer Mike Endean to make 4WD systems and gearboxes for rallycross and later rally and racing cars. Endean, together with Chris Goddard, who had been working on the electronic components essential to the system, in 1983 developed the first ever Xtrac 4WD system for Norwegian rallycross star Martin Schanche. Schanche had thought up the idea of a during driving changeable hydraulic 4WD system (his 1984 ERC winning Ford Escort Mk3 Xtrac/Zakspeed had a stepless FWD:RWD ratio of 28:72 to 50:50) and financed its development. This 560bhp strong so-called "Xtrac 1" (see image at right) was bought by Endean in the mid-1990s, who is still racing it himself in carsprints and hillclimbs from time to time.
