Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible, the new open-top
performance flagship of Bentley - and the world's fastest four-seat convertible
- makes its international debut at the 2013 North American International Auto
Show, Detroit.
The new Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible combines
the sensory pleasures of roof-down luxury touring with the shattering
performance of a 625 PS (616 bhp) twin-turbocharged 6.0 litre W12, while
delivering a fifteen per cent improvement in fuel efficiency. The close-ratio
eight-speed transmission, uprated and lowered suspension and retuned steering
provide exhilarating acceleration and sharp, communicative handling without
detriment to the renowned ride comfort of Bentley's Continental convertible.
Permanent all-wheel drive ensures optimum traction and power delivery whatever
the road conditions.
Taking its place at the pinnacle of the Bentley Continental
range, the new GT Speed Convertible has a top speed of 202 mph (325 km/h) and
in true Bentley style, no compromises have been made in craftsmanship, luxury
or refinement to deliver this unrivalled performance.
Subtle sporting design cues include exclusive 21-inch alloy
wheels, dark-tint grilles and 'rifled' exhaust tail pipes. Inside its
handcrafted cabin, the GT Speed convertible features the Mulliner Driving Specification
as standard, blending contemporary luxury with a distinctly sporting character.
Commenting on the new Continental GT Speed Convertible,
Bentley Chairman and Chief Executive Dr Wolfgang Schreiber said:
"Following the recent successful introduction of the GT Speed, the new GT
Speed Convertible will appeal to drivers who seek the sensory thrills of the
world's fastest four-seat soft-top and the practicality of a year-round grand
tourer, together with unrivalled levels of luxury and refinement. It is designed
for those who accept no compromise."
Powertrain: 12 cylinders, 625 PS (616 bhp) and 8 gears
The Bentley Continental GT Speed convertible shares its powertrain
specification with its Bentley stablemate the GT Speed coupé. The 625 PS (616
bhp) twin-turbocharged, 48-valve, W12 engine powers the new convertible to 60
mph in 4.1 seconds (0-100 km/h in 4.4 s.) and onto a top speed of 202 mph (325
km/h). Nought to 100 mph (160 km/h) is despatched in only 9.7 seconds. Peak
torque - an impressive 800 Nm (590 lb.ft) - is reached at just 2000 revs/min
and maintains that level through to 5000 revs/min for effortless, refined
performance at all times.
