Bentley Emirates, part of Al Habtoor Group, the official dealer of Bentley in the UAE, introduced the Continental GT that redefines style and technology for luxury grand touring at their Abu Dhabi and Dubai showrooms.
The new model sports an even more powerful W12 twin-turbo engine, up to 590 PS from 575 PS, and an innovative variable displacement system that creates more power, but with lower emissions than ever before.
Alongside this increased performance, Bentley Motors has built on the global demand for the Continental GT family with a suite of contemporary design updates and new features for its most successful model to create the most luxurious travelling experience.
Exterior evolution
The Bentley Continental GT is refreshed with a complement of new exterior design features, aimed at sharpening the on-road presence of the iconic Grand Tourer. A new front bumper combines with a smaller radiator shell and new, more pronounced fenders to lend a more assertive and confident stance to the front of the car.
The fenders now feature a new vent, complete with a metallic "B" adornment, which serve to emphasise and enhance the renowned Bentley "power line" that flows rearwards from the front arches. New bright chrome fender badges for the V8 S and W12 models now match those applied to the GT Speed.
At the rear of the car, the boot lid is now more sculpted, with a pronounced aerodynamic profile to the trailing edge. The rear bumper has been reshaped and widened for an added sense of power, and now features full-width bright ware. The V8 S and GT Speed also gain a new rear diffuser design to further differentiate the performance-focused members of the Continental family.
The revisions to the exterior aesthetic are completed with the addition of new wheels to the range of 20- and 21-inch designs available. The standard wheel for the GT V8 and GT W12 becomes a new 20-inch, six-tri-spoke wheel, in painted finish for the V8 and bright machined for the W12. The Mulliner Driving Specification wheel changes to a new 21-inch seven-twin-spoke design, finished in graphite grey with bright machined spokes. Finally, a new 21-inch five-spoke directional sports wheel joins the existing 21-inch design available for the V8 S and GT Speed.
Enhancing the GT's iconic silhouette further are three new paint colours: Marlin, a rich metallic blue; Camel, a soft golden tone; and Jetstream, a light, bright metallic blue.
