Description Throughout history, there have been moments when a Bentley has altered our understanding of great motoring. From the company’s earliest days, our cars set new standards in automotive design and engineering. They were icons of motoring. These cars took the Grand Touring rulebook and rewrote it. The beautiful R-Type Continental in the 1950s and the Continental GT at the start of the 21st century. A revolution in Grand Touring. At the start of a new decade we unveiled our masterpiece, the Continental GT. A stunning coupé that blends classic Bentley DNA with contemporary design and modern technology. The perfect fusion of supercar performance and handcrafted luxury ensures the remarkable, the Continental GT creates a revolution of its own. Welcome to a new chapter in Bentley’s automotive history.

The Continental GT profile is as characteristic as ever. The classic, imposing matrix radiator grille, has been given an even stronger feel. The headlights have been designed to incorporate a beautiful jewellery effect. And at the rear, distinctive wraparound lights – seamlessly integrated into the haunches of the car – are distinguished by their signature ‘floating’ LED lamps. Meanwhile, the boot lid introduces the powerful ‘double horse-shoe’ motif first seen on the all-new flagship Bentley Mulsanne, while flared elliptical exhaust tailpipes drive home the Continental GT’s sporting credentials.

Bentley’s interior designers have skilfully evolved the car’s cabin to produce a stylish yet cocooning space. Incredible attention to detail has gone into making the cabin as quiet and refined as possible. The instrument panel and dashboard subtly echo the flying wings of the Bentley motif. Fashioned from the highest quality soft-touch leathers and striking new analogue dials that flood at night with ‘blood orange’ illumination.

Bentley Motors was founded by W.O. Bentley in 1919 when the first Bentley engine burst into life at New Street Mews, London. From these modest beginnings, W.O’s company went from strength to strength through the 1920s, with an evolving series of acclaimed motor cars and a parade of racing triumphs to prove their outstanding performance. These laurels were capped with five outright victories at Le Mans between 1924 – 1930 and a sixth in 2003.

If we had mission statements in those days, it could not have been expressed more eloquently than in the words of W.O. himself, “To build a fast car, a good car, the best in its class”. These words are just as relevant today as they continue to inform our beliefs, actions and ambitions for the future. Located in Crewe, England since 1946 and owned since 1998 by Volkswagen AG, Bentley Motors is dedicated to making responsive and powerful Grand Tourers with the stamina to cross continents at pace, and drive in refined comfort and style.
