Bentley CONTINENTAL GTC trims

The Bentley Continental GTC is a two-door, four-seater luxury convertible which is intricately designed and assembled by the brand’s automotive experts at the hub in Crewe.

While the convertible body type is only available as an option on the older Continental GT with which the GTC is based, it’s a standard feature on the latter. The retractable roof on the Continental GTC is an upgrade on its identical sibling, making the car stiffer. Additional aluminium panels on the car also make the body lighter.

Speaking of slight structural changes, Bentley’s typical meticulous approach to designing its cars has paid off in the Continental GTC. The front axle has been moved forward which has improved the distribution of weight by shifting the engine further back. As a result, it was possible to include shorter overhangs at the front which improve the overall form of the vehicle.

The Bentley Continental GTC is 170kg heavier than the GT, but the combination of a powerful W12 626bhp engine and driver technology mean that the car handles remarkably well despite its bulk. The anti-roll system couples with highly responsive steering to ensure you can corner with confidence in this car. Finally, the all-wheel drive chain grips the surface nicely and makes the GTC feel surprisingly stable, even when you’re tapping on with your foot to the floor.

Such is the quietness of the Bentley Continental GTC’s cabin at the high speed that the convertible function offers a much-needed reminder to stick to the legal limits. Once the roof is popped, you’ll instantly feel the velocity it offers through the elements. Otherwise, you may want to keep an eye on that speedometer while it smoothly zips through the gears on the eight-speed automatic transmission.
