Unprecedented Power and Efficiency
The new Continental GT Speed introduces an "Ultra Performance Hybrid" powertrain, delivering 782 PS and 1,000 Nm of torque. This combination of a 4.0-liter V8 engine and a 190 PS electric motor allows the car to accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds, reaching a top speed of 208 mph. Despite its power, the GT Speed also offers a 50-mile electric-only range and low CO2 emissions of 29 g/km.
Innovative Chassis and Handling
The latest GT Speed features a new chassis system with advanced air springs and dual-valve dampers, enhancing both comfort and handling. Bentley Dynamic Ride, electronic limited-slip differential (eLSD), and torque vectoring improve stability and performance. The car's weight distribution is now 49:51, providing balanced and responsive driving dynamics.
Elegant and Modern Design
Bentley's new design language is evident in the Continental GT Speed, featuring single headlamps for the first time since the 1950s. The redesigned front and rear exude confidence and modernity, with clean lines and fewer breaks in the surface. The interior showcases world-class craftsmanship with new quilting, 3D leather textures, and advanced wellness seat technology.
Advanced Technology Integration
The fourth-generation Continental GT Speed is equipped with a new 400-volt electrical architecture, supporting a range of cutting-edge features. The "My Bentley App Studio" integrates popular apps directly into the car, enhancing user experience. Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and over-the-air updates ensure the vehicle remains at the forefront of technology.
Convertible Option Available
For the first time, the Continental GT Speed is launched simultaneously with its convertible counterpart, the GTC Speed. The GTC Speed offers the same performance and luxury as the coupe, with the added joy of open-top driving.
Record-Breaking Performance
To showcase its capabilities, the Continental GT Speed set an unofficial speed record of 208 mph in the world’s deepest tunnel, the Ryfylke Tunnel in Norway. This feat underscores the car's exceptional performance and engineering.
