Bentley Continental GT here

The new Bentley Continental GT has arrived in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Taiwan for deliveries to customers.

It will soon be available throughout Southeast Asia too.

“The Bentley Continental GT is a model that we are immensely proud of and, since the first-generation model was launched in 2003, it has become our most successful model in history,” Bentley Motors UK and Asia Pacific regional director Sarah Simpson says.

At the heart of the Continental GT sits an all-new, enhanced version of Bentley’s renowned 6.0-litre, twin-turbocharged W12 TSI engine, mated – for the first time – to a dual-clutch eight-speed transmission, for faster and more efficient gear changes.

A new, technically advanced, adaptive chassis uses Bentley’s intelligent 48-volt Dynamic Ride System to ensure a responsive ride and exceptional handling.

The new system controls ride comfort and lateral roll, cushioning passengers from excessive movement.

The muscular exterior design, created using revolutionary technology, results in a lightweight yet stiff body. The engine is positioned further back to improve weight distribution, resulting in driver-focused, dynamic performance.

Offering four seats and improved luggage capacity, the Bentley Continental GT’s luxurious cabin is packed with details such as a new ‘diamond in diamond’ leather design. In addition, significant work has gone into harmonising the extensive portfolio of 15 colours across hides and carpets.

The interior design is tailored specifically to the modern luxury customer. The cabin seamlessly integrates cutting-edge onboard technology with the finest handcrafted natural materials. The result is an exquisite, harmonised, connected and luxurious space.

The new Continental GT also showcases major evolutions in Bentley’s application of technology. An advanced, fully digital, driver-focused instrument panel and Bentley Rotating Display for the driver are among the suite of innovations. The latter features an impressive 12.3-inch touchscreen housed in a three-sided unit, which revolves the veneer to reveal the touchscreen as well as three elegant analogue dials.
