The Story

The 2022 Bentley Continental GT Speed brings together two qualities Bentley has long mastered: effortless long-distance luxury and formidable performance. As the performance-focused expression of the Continental GT, the Speed sharpens the driving experience while retaining the craftsmanship, comfort and sense of occasion that define a Bentley grand tourer.

Finished in sophisticated Dark Sapphire with a contrasting Linen interior, this example strikes an especially elegant balance between sporting character and traditional British luxury. The deep exterior finish accentuates the Continental’s muscular proportions and flowing bodywork, while the light interior creates a refined, inviting cabin distinguished by beautifully finished leather, metalwork and handcrafted details.

At its heart is Bentley’s 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12, delivering extraordinary power with the smooth, composed character expected of a true grand touring automobile. The Speed adds a more dynamic edge through performance-oriented chassis technology and tuning, giving the car an impressive sense of agility without compromising the quiet confidence and comfort that make the Continental GT so accomplished over distance.

It is a car designed to make every mile feel significant, equally suited to an open stretch of highway, a winding coastal road or an elegant arrival. The Continental GT Speed demonstrates that outright performance and exceptional luxury need not compete; in the right grand tourer, they become part of the same experience.
