THE ULTIMATE GT CAR
The Continental GT range combines exquisite craftsmanship with the power to exhilarate at a moment’s notice. The Continental GT model captures the essence of grand touring, while the elegant Continental GT Azure offers enhanced comfort and wellbeing. The Continental GT S adds sports styling and a more dynamic drive, while drivers who demand unrivalled performance and sporting luxury can choose the aptly named Continental GT Speed. The Continental GT Speed Edition 12 adds a wealth of handcrafted features that celebrate Bentley’s legendary W12 engine and, for the ultimate grand touring experience, there is the truly wondrous Continental GT Mulliner.
Whichever model you choose, expect enough room for four adults to travel in comfort and style, coupled with generous luggage capacity. Built for the open road, this is a GT car like no other.
BORN OF A LOVE FOR THE ROAD
The Continental GT is built for effortless acceleration and a truly thrilling drive. Choose from two powerful, twin-turbocharged petrol engines: a 4.0 litre V8 or a 6.0 litre W12. Models fitted with the V8 engine deliver 542 bhp, resulting in acceleration from zero to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 198 mph. The W12 engine takes performance to the next level: 650 bhp, taking you to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and on to an incredible top speed of 208 mph.
In all models, the engine sits largely behind the front axle, to optimise weight distribution and dynamic handling. An active all-wheel drive system enables you to enjoy rear-wheel drive when conditions beneath the tires are good – yet benefit from the extra traction of all-wheel drive, the moment the car detects the slightest wheel slip. From the Pirelli Noise Cancellation System to the three-chamber adaptive air suspension, the Continental GT is fine-tuned for comfort, for confidence and for a truly thrilling drive.
UNDENIABLE BEAUTY
A long bonnet and short front overhang result in the ideal grand tourer profile, with sweeping lines guiding the eye from the front wheel to a muscular rear haunch. The sleek bodyshell is made from superformed aluminium panels – large, light and streamlined, they allow the exterior to be created from fewer pieces for a smooth, almost uninterrupted surface. A design like this is simply unattainable on mass-produced cars.
Inside the cabin, you can choose from a wide range of hand-finished hide colours, with numerous further options for embroidery, piping, accent colours and stitching. Traditional, high-gloss veneers can be commissioned in a variety of wood species, alongside open pore options that require less lacquer, for a more contemporary and environmentally friendly matt finish. Technical materials can also be selected, such as engine-turned aluminium in a variety of shades, or lightweight carbon fibre.
ENTER A DIGITAL WORLD
Digital technology has a hand in practically everything the Continental GT does – the way it drives, the way it feels and the way it entertains every occupant.
The dashboard touchscreen can be accessed via the Bentley Rotating Display, a stunning feature that enables you to replace the touchscreen with three handcrafted analogue gauges at the touch of a button, allowing you to disconnect and focus on the joy of the drive.
A range of driver assistance features are available, depending on the model you choose, from adaptive cruise control and lane detection to autonomous parking and a night vision camera. Intelligent LED Matrix beam headlamps, consisting of 55 individually controlled LEDs, allow the main beam to be used continuously, automatically adjusting its shape to avoid dazzling oncoming cars.

MAKE YOUR GT CAR UNIQUE
You can choose from a core selection of paint colours selected by the Bentley design team. If you also consider the extended range and the Mulliner Paint range, your choice grows to more than 80 colours in total – including the stunning new metallic finish, Topaz Blue. The Blackline Specification, meanwhile, turns the exterior chrome detailing black, for a darker, more stealth-inspired aesthetic. You can also choose from a wide range of wheels in sizes of up to 22”, for unrivalled road presence.
Inside, almost everything you can see can be tailored to your taste, from the colour of the leather upholstery to the veneers that surround the cabin – right down to less obvious details like the pedals and carpets. Technology options include driver assistance packages, seat adjustment systems and a choice of sound systems: including the 16-channel, 1,550-watt Bang & Olufsen system and the ultimate in audiophile sound, the 2,200-watt Naim for Bentley system.
To explore the possibilities further, you can commission Bentley’s personal Commissioning Division, Mulliner, to create truly bespoke features for your car.
