The new Bentley Continental GT Speed, priced at RM1.26 million (US$302,100), makes a striking impression, reminiscent of a gorilla balancing on a tightrope. Despite its substantial size, the car’s impressive performance and plush interior more than compensate for its heft, embodying the essence of the 105-year-old British brand.
Following the hybrid versions of the Bentayga SUV in 2018 and the Flying Spur in 2022, the Continental GT is now embracing hybrid technology. This two-door coupe combines a 4.0-liter V8 engine with an electric motor, delivering a robust 771 brake horsepower (approximately 760 hp) and 738 lb-ft of torque—an increase of 19% and 11% respectively compared to its predecessor.
The Continental GT Speed accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds and offers a top speed of 208 mph, along with a usable electric-only range of 50 miles. With its blend of power and elegance, this luxury vehicle redefines performance for the modern driver.
