The arrival of the new Continental GT S and GTC S marks a sportier chapter for Bentley’s grand touring lineage. Drawing inspiration from Bentley’s Supersports heritage and guided by the brand’s recent Ultra‑Performance Hybrid innovations, the S models pair a twin‑turbo V8 with a powerful electric motor to produce 671 hp and 686 lb-ft of torque. Bentley claims a 0–60 mph sprint in 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 190 mph, while an EV‑only mode allows silent motoring in urban environments.

Beyond straight‑line pace, the GT S and GTC S offer a more engaging drive thanks to all‑wheel steering, an active anti‑roll system and electronic limited‑slip differential. Bentley’s engineers tested the chassis on Alpine passes and European racetracks to ensure it balances comfort and agility.

Visual cues set the Continental GT S apart. A Blackline specification blacks out the grille, badges and trim, while 22‑inch wheels and red calipers hint at the performance lurking within.

Inside, a new colour split combines Dinamica suede with leather, and buyers can opt for the rotating dashboard display or Mulliner finishes. Thoughtful touches like quad‑elliptical tailpipes and a sports exhaust underscore the car’s athletic intent without abandoning grand touring comfort.

The new models sit below the range‑topping Speed but above the standard GT, offering a more accessible way into Bentley’s hybrid performance. Orders open immediately, with first deliveries beginning later this year.
