Bentley Continental GT IV photos

Unveiled in mid-2024, the fourth-generation Bentley Continental GT marks the beginning of a high-performance electrified era for the British grand tourer. Showcasing a bold exterior design evolution inspired by coachbuilt projects like the Bacalar and Batur, the front end departs from two decades of twin-headlamp tradition in favor of expressive single oval lights with horizontal LED daytime running light accents. Offered as both a coupe and a GTC convertible, the fourth generation replaces the iconic W12 engine with an advanced Ultra Performance Hybrid powertrain. The plug-in hybrid system pairs a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with an electric motor integrated into an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a combined output of 782 horsepower and 1,000 Nm of torque. A 25.9 kWh lithium-ion battery provides up to 80 km of pure electric driving range. The chassis benefits from new dual-valve adaptive dampers, active all-wheel drive, 48V active anti-roll control, and all-wheel steering, redefining ultra-luxury grand touring performance.
