2010 Bentley Continental GTC Speed Introduction of the new
Bentley Continental GTC range builds on this success with a subtle evolution of its distinctive style and a range of technical and feature enhancements benefiting comfort and customer choice. The appeal of the
GTC is further strengthened by the addition of the new 600bhp (610PS)
Bentley Continental GTC Speed model. It is
Bentley's most powerful convertible ever and inspired by Bentley's legendary '
Speed Models' from the 1920s.

The Bentley Continental GTC Speed is visually distinguished by subtle
design enhancements which emphasise its higher performance credentials. At the front, the radiator and lower air intake grilles feature a dark tinted matrix as standard. Larger diameter 9.5J x 20-inch, multi-spoke alloy wheels with Bentley-bespoke
Pirelli PZero ultra-high performance (UHP) tyres, lowered and uprated suspension, wider twin-rifled exhaust tail pipes and a new boot-mounted lip spoiler that enhances high speed aerodynamics, reinforce the
sporting character of the
Speed model.

The GTC Speed's 600bhp (610PS)
W12 engine develops 9 per cent more power than the standard GTC. However, it is the 15 per cent increase in torque that really distinguishes the Speed model, which now develops an impressive output of 750 Nm (553lb ft). This is achieved across virtually the complete rev range, from just 1700 to 5600 rev/min, delivering that characteristic Bentley wave of torque.Engine efficiency improvements result from the use of
lower friction, lighter-weight components and a new engine management system, while twin, low inertia turbochargers with minimal turbo lag contribute to the W12 engine's flat torque curve. The GTC Speed engine is visually differentiated by the 'crackle black' finish to the intake manifold.The Continental GTC's steel body has an exceptionally rigid torsional stiffness of around 30Hz that not only minimises 'scuttle shake' but provides a very stable platform for the aluminium-intensive suspension system, optimising its performance. Despite the boost in power and torque for the GTC Speed model, no changes to the body structure were required.

The GTC Speed's cabin is based on that of the
Mulliner Driving Specification (a cost option on the standard GTC). It features diamond quilted hide seats with embroidered Bentley emblems, a knurled chrome and hide gearlever and a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel with brushed aluminium switch surround.
These are complemented by drilled alloy foot-pedals and 'Speed' logos to the polished treadplates. The standard GTC also receives a new Bentley 'B' brake pedal.
2011 Bentley Continental GT comes with a new design and very beautiful. This car represents the second generation cut to success, which was established 8 years ago. This car has 567 horsepower and 516 pounds-feet hitting, 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 engine makes this car more complete. This engine is also found playbook and capacity gains flex-fuel, which can be combined with gasoline and E85.
2011 Bentley Continental GT is an all-new model, not simply a refresh. Yes, its body Is not a drastic reinterpretation of Dirk van Braeckel’s original design, but there are new, Seductive details, like the staggered bi-xenon headlamps and jeweled LED daytime running lights. As of next year, the nominally eco-conscious will be able to get their Continental GT with a 4.0-liter V8. Numbers haven’t been released yet, but you can expect it to register high on the horse and torque while getting significantly better gas mileage than its big brother.
