Key design updates include a bold new look with single headlamps and a revamped interior with wellness seat technology and air ionization. The latest electrical architecture allows seamless integration of advanced driver assistance and infotainment systems. Additionally, the new GTC Speed convertible debuts alongside the coupe. Production at Bentley’s Dream Factory in Crewe begins in Q3, with virtually limitless customization options available.

Bentley is set to launch its fourth-generation Continental GT Speed, the most powerful Bentley ever created. The new model boasts an impressive 782 hp and 737 lb-ft of torque, making it a milestone in the brand’s 105-year history.

The Continental GT Speed will feature Bentley’s innovative Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain, offering 50 miles of electric-only range and a CO2 figure under 50 g/km. This marks a significant step in Bentley’s Beyond100 initiative to lead in sustainable luxury mobility, with plug-in drivetrains becoming available across all model ranges.

Designed with significant performance in mind, the new GT Speed includes advanced chassis technology like active all-wheel drive with torque vectoring, four-wheel steering, an electronic Limited Slip Differential, 48V electric active anti-roll control and dual-valve dampers. These features collectively deliver the most dynamic Bentley experience to date, positioning the GT Speed as the first “everyday supercar” in its segment.

In a thrilling display of its capabilities, the Continental GT Speed has set an unofficial “underwater speed record” by reaching 208 mph in Norway’s Ryfylke Tunnel, the longest subsea road tunnel and the deepest tunnel of any kind globally. A video of the feat is set to be shared on June 25, during the GT Speed’s debut, via Bentley’s official channels.
