Bentley Continental GT Speed

Inspired by the grace and power of Bentley’s thoroughbred bloodline, the Continental GT Speed combines phenomenal power, tauter handling and sharper steering response.

The Continental GT Speed is the most powerful production Bentley ever and the first to top 200mph (322km/h).

With its highly efficient W12 engine delivering 600bhp (610PS/449kW), the Continental GT Speed offers a 9 percent increase in power, making it the most powerful Bentley production car ever.

The Continental GT Speed provides a harder-edged, more sporting Bentley driving experience, delivering performance figures of 0-60mph in 4.3 seconds (0-100km/h in 4.5 seconds) and effortless overtaking performance between 50-70mph in just 2.3 seconds (80-120km/h in 3.0 seconds).

The new Continental GT Speed engine also benefits from improved CO2 emissions and improved fuel consumptions as a result of an overall improved engine efficiency.

With 750Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque at just above an idle and available throughout the engine rpm range, the Continental GT Speed boasts an increase of 15 percent in torque, supporting effortless overtaking performance.

The Continental GT Speed develops maximum torque of 750Nm (553 lb-ft) at 1600rpm, translating to an immediate sensation of power as the accelerator is touched. The torque is more apparent with an increased overtaking performance.
