The words Luxury and Opulence best describe the Bentley Continental GTC, it is The Quintessential Convertible Grand Tourer, a stunning example of British automotive design, inside and out.
Driving in this car sets you apart from the rest and will invite stares and admiration from all onlookers, when closed, the roof merges seamlessly with the car’s streamlined body, resulting in a sleek silhouette.
When opened, the roof is stowed away neatly, allowing a single design line to emerge, almost as if it was never part of the design.
To ensure this is a convertible you can drive with the top down all year round, it has ventilated seats to keep you cool on hot days, and heated armrests that would enable you to keep the roof down on cooler days, too. However if it gets too cold the roof can be closed quickly – even while the car is moving at speeds of up to 50 KM/H – so if the weather suddenly changes, you don’t need to stop.
The Continental GTC has handcrafted leather seats complemented with diamond stitching, and a ring of hand-finished wood emerges from the center console, where it spreads out across the fascia and into the doors, encircling the cabin. Comfort is not lost in the face of beauty either, because the seats of the Continental GTC are spacious enough for all 4 passengers to enjoy a long drive from Geneva to Lugano.
This car is also a great option for families touring through London, the children will stay comfortable in the back seats and there is ample space to bring along a few bags with the travel necessities.
Wind and road noise is minimal, ensuring the cabins are typically whisper-quiet on the highway, perfect for traveling with younger children who need more quiet time for sleep, thus the car also takes a load of parents in quite a few ways.
However, if noise is not a concern and instead you want speed, just switch to Sports mode.
The Continental GTC actually boasts four different driving modes, enabling you to configure its systems to suit your mood.
While Comfort mode delivers an incredibly refined ride which is perfect for long-distance cruising, Sport mode increases responsiveness for thrilling dynamic handling.
In Sports mode the Continental GTC can capitalize on its impossibly smooth yet immensely powerful, twin-turbocharged, 4.0 L V8 engine that can deliver 542 BHP and 770 NM of torque, resulting in acceleration from 0 to 100 KM/H in just 4.0 seconds – and an incredible top speed of 318 KM/H.
Not bad for a family friendly convertible at all.
Style should not be compromised for comfort and efficiency and the Continental GTC ensures that is not the case, like most Bentley vehicles, it strikes a delicate balance between comfort, refinement, and respectable performance.
