CONTINENTAL GT SPEED AND CONTINENTAL GT SPEED

CONTINENTAL GT SPEED AND
CONTINENTAL GT SPEED CONVERTIBLE
A powerful statement.
The Bentley Continental GT is the definitive statement
in luxury and power. Created for those with the freedom
to reach for the keys whenever they choose, it stands
for more than reaching destinations. It is for those who
revel in the experiences along the way. An all-wheel drive
grand tourer that will effortlessly transport you in style
and comfort.
Launched in 2003, it inspired a new generation of drivers
– marking a turning point in the history of the motor car:
the resurgence of the grand tourer. Since then, few
cars have come close to matching the Continental GT’s
combination of heart-stopping performance and
unparalleled handcrafted luxury.

Explore your darker side.
The distinctive Continental GT Speed is Bentley’s fastest
and most powerful Continental ever. And it shows.
Even motionless, this car has a breathtaking presence.
Its darkened grille and dark-tint front and rear lamps
express a darker side to the marque’s character, while a
lowered sports suspension and exclusive body coloured
lower body styling give the GT Speed its aggressive,
purposeful stance.
Beyond its dramatic dark-tint 21" Signature Speed
alloy wheels sit formidable red brake callipers –
a symbol of power and control.
Every last detail, right down to the unique Speed badge,
makes no secret of this car’s intent.
5
All powerful.
At the heart of the mighty Continental GT Speed
beats Bentley’s most powerful 6 litre twin-turbocharged
W12 engine, generating 820 Nm (605 lb.ft) of torque.
Assembled by hand, and with a peak power of
626 bhp at 6,000 rpm (635 PS / 467 kW), it has the
ability to propel your Bentley from 0 - 60 mph in a mere
4 seconds (0 - 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds). The advanced
eight-speed ZF transmission, not only makes this
Bentley as fuel efficient as the Continental W12
– it makes a fast car even faster: top speed, should you
have the opportunity to explore it, is 206 mph (331 km/h).
But power is nothing without control. Hence the
GT Speed’s state-of-the-art all-wheel drive system and
Electronic Stability Programme. Wherever the mood
takes you, whatever the conditions, your drive will feel
even safer, more agile and dynamic.
7
The luxury of time.
Achieving 0 - 60 mph in 4 seconds has taken years
of refinement. The same is true for Bentley’s
unrivalled craftsmanship.
One look at the Continental GT Speed and you will
appreciate that it is as exquisite as it is powerful.
Take its bodywork. The fluid, knife-edge crease lines
can only be achieved by superforming – a process
involving shaping heated aluminium by air pressure.
Inside, you don’t just notice the difference, you feel it.
Every soft-touch surface is covered with supple leather.
The Piano Black veneer – meticulously lacquered and
sanded up to eighteen times.
Creating this level of incomparable luxury and style
doesn’t take speed. It takes time.
8
The road exactly how it should be.
Open.
Experience the exhilaration of driving hood-down
in Bentley’s most powerful convertible of all – the
Continental GT Speed Convertible.
Capable of a wind-carving 203 mph (327 km/h), you
won’t just catch the sun, you may well overtake it.
Up, and its soundproof four-layer fabric hood promises
year-round versatility – deploying in just 25 seconds.
Down, and the interior takes centre stage. Heated front
seats are a standard feature whereas integrated neck
warmers, a wind deflector and a heated steering wheel
are all included in the All Seasons Specification package
or as separate options, guaranteeing an even calmer
and more comfortable drive with the roof down.

The perfect calm.
Even with such incredible power to hand, the Continental
GT Speed delivers an unequalled level of comfort
from within.
The sumptuous and spacious cabin has been given
a more sporting twist with the introduction of the
unique Speed interior colour split. This complements
the dynamic Speed signature, impeccably stitched into
the soft leather headrests and embellishing the fascia
panel and tread plates.
An abundance of space allows four to travel with luggage –
ensuring the GT Speed is ready to go, whenever you are.
Sitting comfortably?
Share the sense of exhilaration with
room for four adults and luggage.
