Bentley GTC Speed
One of the world's fastest drop tops gets a dash of extra pace and a revised interior.
It’s full speed ahead for Bentley – as the Crewe based car maker confirms details of a special new model that’s set to be one of the world’s fastest convertibles.
Available to order now, the all new GTC Speed gets the same package of engine and interior modifications seen on the Bentley Continental GT Speed launched late last year.
With 50bhp more than the standard model, the car is said to be capable of a top speed of 200mph. Thanks to a staggering 750Nm of torque in gear performance is simply effortless and the 0-60mph sprint takes only 4.5 seconds.
Distinguishing the GTC Speed from the ‘standard’ car, besides the extra 48bhp, is a special tinted mesh in the radiator and lower air intake grille. There’s also larger 20-inch multi-spoke alloys as standard, wrapped in high-performance Pirelli PZero rubber. Lowered suspension and a subtle lip spoiler improve the Speed’s handling and aerodynamics, while wider twin-exhaust pipes help to turn up the volume.
Optional extras include fade-resistant carbon-ceramic brakes – the largest fitted to any production car in the world – and Bentley’s sophisticated Adaptive Cruise Control system.
Prices will start at £130,000.
