Bentley Continental GT
A revolutionary Grand Tourer that will take you to a different place. A time for pure pleasure. Every mile and every minute a moment of intense exhilaration. The freedom of space. Four people together savouring the inimitable Bentley driving sensation. High torque at low revs. Minimum effort. Maximum enjoyment. Engaging. Compelling. Enduring. Not merely for the sprint. At the heart of its taut, predatory form lies one of the most formidable engines ever built. Yet what truly powers this car is the spirit to break boundaries.
Specification
Unlike a conventional 12-cylinder engine with two banks of six, the Continental GT's 6-litre engine is configured in four banks of three cylinders in a W formation. With 650Nm (479 lb-ft) of torque at just above an idle and available throughout the engine rpm range, few other coupes offer such an effortless curve of controlled power.
