Bentley has added the new Continental GT to its
official configurator, giving the chance to everyone to create their preferred
spec. The all-new British GT comes with a much more sculptural shape that
ultimately makes its predecessor look blunt in comparison and that’s just the
beginning.
The adoption of the new platform also means that the
new Conti GT uses the latest 48-volt electrical architecture which in turn
enables it to use a very clever air suspension system with active-roll bars.
Bentley claims that in the sportiest of settings, the new Conti GT will be an
absolute hoot to drive.
The first launch models will be exclusively powered
by the updated 6.0-liter W12 paired to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic
gearbox, making 635 PS and 900 Nm of torque. 0-100 km/h
comes in 3.7 seconds while top speed is set at 333 km/h.
Bentley will offer the new Continental GT in 17
exterior colors, plus another 70 hues in the extended range of options. There
will also be 15 carpet options, eight veneers (with an additional four
dual-veneer options), 15 choices of interior hides and more, giving customers a
virtually unlimited catalogue to spec their cars.
Unfortunately the new configurator doesn’t give you
all the options, but you still get to play with a lot of different combos and
see for yourself which spec is the best for you.
