What is like to drive a Bentley Continental?

The Bentley Continental was recently redesigned and now features even more luxury than ever before. Of course, what makes the Continental so unique is not its features per se, but rather its overall refinement, luxury, craftsmanship and the unique experience that you feel behind the wheel. Driving a Bentley is like nothing else, the perfect blend of comfort and performance and the all-new Continental is the perfect representation of that reality and DNA.


The Continental GT and GT Convertible include an entirely new architecture that is long, low, wide, and sleek. The sharp lines of the exterior include muscular haunches that match its refined power. Steel, aluminum, and composite materials strategically add style, strength, and efficiency where needed. The crystal-effect LED headlamps complete the new front fascia, while a range of custom-designed 20” and 21” wheels add a signature Bentley touch. All wheels have the Mulliner Driving Specification available. The Continental GT Convertible and GT V8 Convertible offer an entirely different open-top experience that includes stunning exterior lines.


The Continental GT and GT Convertible offer a powerful Bentley W12 engine that produces 626 bhp and 664 lb-ft of torque, which is enough to take over any road. The twin-turbocharged Continental GT V8 and its convertible version aren’t far behind in performance with 542 bhp and 568 lb-ft of torque.


All of this comes together to create a blissful experience out on the road where you are one with the car, the car is tailored to you both inside and out, and you feel removed from every other vehicle. For starters, you can’t hear the other vehicles which isolates you, but you also feel like you’re in a different world where potholes, horns, bumps, and wind noise simply do not exist. The Bentley Continental responds immediately to your inputs, it reacts the way you expect it to, it pushes forward with no hesitation and can be driven hard to smoothly depending on your particular preference.


The Bentley Continental may just be perfect. We invite you to discover it for yourself today at Decarie Motors.
