Sportier Design Inspired by Supersports
Built on the fourth‑generation Bentley Continental GT platform, the freshly unveiled Continental GT S and its convertible sibling, the GTC S, take the classic grand‑tourer silhouette and inject it with a more aggressive, track‑focused aesthetic. The look draws clear inspiration from Bentley’s limited‑edition Supersports models, emphasizing driver‑centered lines and razor‑sharp handling cues.
Both models feature the latest LED Matrix “Precision” headlights, a technology previously reserved for the GT Speed, delivering deeper black accents and superior illumination. Wheel options include a 22‑inch 10‑spoke Swept alloy in a sleek silver finish, with optional contrast‑machined or full‑gloss black treatments. Enthusiasts can also choose a sportier 22‑inch wheel finished in high‑gloss black or the exclusive Pale Brodgar Satin.
Convertible Top Technology
The GTC S’s soft‑top is crafted from premium fabric and operates electronically. It opens or closes in roughly 19 seconds, reaching a deployment speed of up to 48 km/h, allowing drivers to enjoy open‑air motoring without compromising on speed or comfort.
Luxurious, Sport‑Focused Interior
Inside, the GT S and GTC S adopt a two‑tone leather palette that highlights the sportier intent. Trim choices range from Piano Black wood veneers to optional carbon‑fiber or metal‑plated accents. Bentley’s proprietary Dinamica material decorates the steering wheel, gear selector, and door panels, delivering a tactile, performance‑oriented feel.
High‑Performance Hybrid Powertrain
At the heart of the new GT S lies Bentley’s High Performance Hybrid system, pairing a 4.0‑litre twin‑turbo V8 with electric assistance. The powertrain churns out a staggering 680 horsepower and 930 Nm of torque, channeled through an eight‑speed dual‑clutch transmission.
Key chassis technologies include:
- All‑wheel drive with a 48‑volt Bentley Dynamic Ride system.
- Electronic active anti‑roll bar for enhanced stability.
- Rear torque vectoring and torque split capabilities that distribute power front‑to‑rear and left‑to‑right for optimum traction.
Performance figures are impressive: 0‑100 km/h (0‑62 mph) in just 3.5 seconds, a top speed exceeding 305 km/h (190 mph), and an electric‑only range of up to 80 km (50 miles) for zero‑emission city cruising.
Balancing Sport and Comfort
Unlike the more extreme Ultra Performance Hybrid setup, the High Performance Hybrid configuration in the GT S aims for a harmonious blend of exhilarating dynamics and everyday refinement. While official pricing remains under wraps, the model positions itself as a premium choice for drivers who crave both blistering speed and the smooth, quiet comfort synonymous with Bentley.
