Unveiling the New Bentley Continental GT Speed: A New Era of Performance and Luxury
Mark your calendars for 16:00 BST on Tuesday, 25 June. Bentley Motors is set to launch the fourth-generation Continental GT Speed, the most powerful Bentley ever created.
Performance Beyond Imagination
The new Continental GT Speed boasts an unprecedented 782 PS and 1000 Nm of torque. This powerhouse is equipped with Bentley’s innovative Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain, enabling an electric-only range of 50 miles (80 km) and a remarkable WLTP CO2 figure of under 50 g/km. This combination of power and efficiency not only makes it the most powerful road car in Bentley’s 105-year history but also sets a new standard in sustainable luxury mobility.
Advanced Engineering for the Ultimate Drive
This new model introduces cutting-edge chassis technology, making it the most dynamic Bentley to date. Features include:
- Active All-Wheel Drive with Torque Vectoring
- Four-Wheel Steering

These advancements ensure that the new Continental GT Speed is not just a grand tourer but the first ‘everyday supercar’ in its segment, offering unparalleled performance and everyday usability.
Record-Breaking Speed
In a testament to its exceptional capabilities, the Continental GT Speed recently set an unofficial “underwater speed record,” reaching its top speed of 208 mph (335 km/h) in Norway’s Ryfylke Tunnel – the longest and deepest subsea road tunnel in the world. This remarkable feat will be showcased in a film released at the time of the launch.
A Legacy of Excellence
