Bentley Continental GTC amazing grace

It is the most powerful production Bentley ever built and the first to top 322km/h.

As a builder of limousines for the British royal family, Hollywood stars and European aristocrats, the UK-based company always manages to get plenty of publicity.

For Melbourne, it has chosen two Continental GTCs — a Glacier White and Monaco Yellow Continental — as the halo cars.

They will be joined by the Bentley Flying Spur Speed and Continental GT Speed coupe, both potent additions to the Continental range.

Inspired by the grace and power of Bentley’s bloodline, the Continental GT Speed delivers enormous power and tauter handling.

Enhanced dynamics build on a heritage of high performance dating to 1919.

The GT Speed’s 6.0-litre W12 engine develops an enormous 449kW/750Nm, propelling the car to 100km/h in 4.3 seconds.

It is the most powerful production Bentley ever built and the first to top 322km/h.
