INCREDIBLY AGILE
The Continental GT Speed’s sheer power is enhanced with an innovative suite of technologies that let you get lost in the pleasure of the drive. Breathtaking levels of agility are made possible by the introduction of Electronic All-Wheel Steering alongside Torque Vectoring by Electronic Limited Slip Differential (eLSD). And these combine with the Bentley Dynamic Ride electric active roll control system, to give you the stability you need when tackling even the most dramatic of corners.
Optional lightweight, high-performance Carbon Ceramic brakes offer incredible stopping power time and time again.
THRILL MODE, ENGAGED
Switch into Sport driving mode and this GT’s true character is unleashed. Specially calibrated to ensure the engine responds incredibly rapidly to the driver’s needs, by upshifting later when accelerating and downshifting earlier when decelerating, it delivers exhilaration. The transmission shifting is also lightning-fast – quicker than in any other Bentley – to enhance that responsiveness still further. The result? The ultimate feeling of control.
Design
A BOLD PRESENCE
An exhilarating exterior design ensures that the Continental GT Speed’s impressive function is matched by compelling form. Each bold detail hints at the power within; a Dark Tint Grille, Speed Outer Sill and striking forged Speed 22” wheels – available in your choice of a Silver Painted, Black Painted or Dark Tint finish – create a moody and aggressive look.
Exclusive and luxurious features such as Speed badging, illuminated treadplates, and Jewel Fuel and Oil Filler Caps add a flash of metallic silver to the exterior, demonstrating how no opportunity has been missed to create a flawless grand tourer.
A Dramatic Interior
The drama continues within. Embroidered Speed headrests, Speed badging, and a heated Alcantara steering wheel are just some of the exclusive and luxurious details that immerse you in the thrill of the drive – and with the Mulliner Driving Specification as standard, extra touches such as diamond-in-diamond quilting and Sports Pedals show that luxury can be found in every surface.
A highly desirable colour combination in a Hide and Alcantara mix is available only on the Speed, which allows you to combine these contrasting fabrics and their textures to produce a unique and luxurious surface across the seating. You can also add contrast stitching and an optional Carbon Fascia to create an environment in which new heights of driving joy can be achieved.
BENTLEY ROTATING DISPLAY
Art meets science meets magic. And the result is breathtaking. The optional Bentley Rotating Display lets you choose from three stunning displays: a polished piece of veneer, a touchscreen infotainment display, or three diamond-knurled analogue gauges that create a more classic aesthetic. The choice is yours.
Personalisation
Create your Masterpiece
There is no greater thrill than commissioning a work of art to match your vision. When it comes to creating your Continental GT Speed, there is an almost unlimited combination of ways you can choose to express yourself and your passion for high-octane performance. Select from an extensive range of exterior paints, along with 15 main and 11 secondary hide choices – including the luxurious Alcantara option.
The seductive Piano Black Veneer can be enhanced with an optional chrome pinstripe that catches the eye and adds a hint of dramatic flair to the cabin. Or, instead, you can choose from Crown Cut Walnut, Dark Stained Burr Walnut or Dark Eucalyptus Fiddleback as standard, along with a wide range of optional high-gloss, open pore or dual veneers, as well as technical finishes, all designed to complete your surroundings in style.
Discover the full range of personalisation opportunities available to you with our Configurator.
For those who wish to explore every option in their pursuit of perfection, the Leather Specification replaces the Hide and Alcantara mix interior with a Full Hide option, and allows you to choose from a number of alternate duo-tone colour combinations with the full 15 hide colour choice – giving you even greater freedom to express yourself exactly as you desire.
An Exciting Specification
The stunning Blackline Specification expresses the immense power and exciting character of the Continental GT Speed with dramatic black-painted exterior brightware – replacing the radiator matrix grille, side window surrounds, rear bumper brightware and more.
For those who desire some added comfort in their drives, the Front Seat Comfort Specification adds a suite of functions that let you keep your focus – including a multi-mode massager for the driver and passenger seats, adjustable side bolsters, electric headrests and heated armrests.
