With many entrants in the luxury coupe arena over the last few
years, including such notables as the Aston Martin DB9 and the Mercedes
Benz CL65 AMG, many agree that the Bentley Continental GT is still
the defining car of its class.
Features
The Bentley Continental GT is powered by a 6L Volkswagen-trademark
W12 engine with dual turbochargers. It generates a usable power
of 552 bhp at 6100 rpm and a maximum torque of 650 Nm at 1600 rpm.
The Continental GT runs on a permanent four-wheel drive, the first
Bentley to do so, distributing power across the entire car for better
driving control.
The Bentley Continental GT can run at a top speed of 190 mph, come
to a standstill from 60 mph in just under 115 feet and boasts a
0 to 60 mph acceleration of 4.8 seconds - an amusing display of
power from a 5300-lb frame! The gearbox is a six-speed automatic
with instant-override paddle-shifting controls mounted behind the
steering wheel.
The sightline of the Bentley Continental GT is optimal with wide
and large windows at both the front and back. The Continental GT
comes with bespoked wheels in either 19 or 20 inches with a choice
of alloy or chrome finish.
Space is uncompromising with ample legroom for everyone in its
2x2 seating and king-sized trunk space, a result of optimal engine
configuration and the fuel tank fitted under the floor. The cabin
of the Bentley Continental GT embraces true luxury defined craftsmanship
with premium grade leather covers, front and rear consoles, and
various areas framed with handcrafted unbleached wooden veneer.
All this made even more luscious with numerous chrome-accented switches
and brushed aluminum highlights.
The Bentley Continental GT features high-end technology including
a DVD Satellite Navigation system, Bluetooth rSAP telephone system,
keyless entry and ignition, multi-zone climate control, on-board
infotainment system, and heated seats. Little is left to be satisfied
for the technologically-inclined, save for a conspicuously missing
satellite radio system.
Performance
The Bentley Continental GT pretty much lives up to any hype. The
Continental GT is both is a sports coupe capable of four-wheel drifts
and impressive speed displays, and a grand tourer providing elegant
cruises and serene high-speed travel.
At a $167,000 price tag, the Bentley Continental GT creates plenty
of expectations and delivers in every way imaginable.
