2011 Bentley Continental GT Coupe

2011 Bentley Continental GT Coupe Review

Now, the new Continental GT coupe 4 seater built on the success of its iconic predecessor, capturing the spirit of the GT, but with further design standards, engineering, luxury, craftsmanship, performance, dynamic practice, all days and refinement.
 

Beautifully designed a new body to give the GT a coupe even more, look more defined. The decor offers new levels of cabin design, craftsmanship and luxury amenities. The seats, for example, to provide even more support, and rear legroom, even bigger and dashboard-style modernity. New touch-screen infotainment system that features a state-of-the-art navigation, Google Maps and the latest entertainment technology Balanced Mode Radiator ™ loudspeaker and Dirac size digital sound processing to produce better sound quality.

Bentley's acclaimed 6-liter 12-cylinder bi-turbo powertrain has now increased power of 575p (567bhp/423kW) and 700 nm (£ 516 ft) of torque and this is coupled to a Quick Shift transmission which allows new double downshifts. Thank you to tip flex-fuel technology, it can also run on both unleaded gasoline, the standard (petrol) and sustainable bioethanol (up to E85) or a mixture of both.
 

At the end of 2011 all new high-performance 8-cylinder engine can also be ordered. This advanced power unit provides 40 percent reduction compared to the W12 engine, and offers class-leading CO2 emissions-output ratio, performance and refinement Bentley.

Both engines are four-wheel drive linked to a ratio of 40:60 prejudices sport rear pair (compared to the original illusion 50:50 Continental GT), to minimize understeer when cornering hard and allows the experienced pilot to control the line of cars and the accurate balance of gas.
