Overview - Bentley Continental GT |
The 2007 Bentley Continental GT is a 2-door, 4-passenger
luxury coupe. It offers super car performance with traditional Bentley
handcrafted luxury refinement with the combination of phenomenal power and
contemporary design.
Instead of a conventional 12-cylinder engine with two banks of six, the Continental GT’s 6-litre engine is configured in four banks of three cylinders in a W
formation which make the drive utterly thrilling. But its size is deceptive. Twin turbochargers boost the power output to an astonishing 552bhp (411kW). Its
super car status is confirmed by a top speed of 198mph (318km/h) and a 0-60mph time of just 4.7 seconds.
The Continental GT develops maximum torque of 650Nm (479 lb-ft) at 1600rpm, translating to an immediate sensation of power as the accelerator is touched. The unique design of the W12 engine frees an exceptional amount of cabin space.
The throttles, fuel injection, twin turbochargers and
ignition are controlled by the sophisticated engine management system. Full
electronic control of the six speed automatic transmission, air suspension and
continuous all-wheel drive combine to provide the immediate feedback. Steering,
suspension and chassis work together in absolute harmony, while intelligent
under-the-skin technology monitors and fine-tunes every aspect of your
driving experience.
Keyless Entry enables the car to be unlocked,
started and locked again without the need to remove the key from your pocket. The
other additional features include laminated glazing, GPS tracking,
multi-function alarm system featuring immobilisation, exterior and interior
sensing, glass break and inclination sensing, all provide additional peace
