The 2012 Bentley Continental GT will make its debut at the Paris Motor Show last October with sales beginning in 2011. Prices will start at ÂŁ130,000. Bentley Continental GT: Although much of the evolution of the GT improvement lies in the interior and under the sheetmetal, body re-deserve much love.
From set-down, the matrix is more upright grille and headlights are elegant with Gatling gun runners LED daytime, to clear the rear decklid and taillamps further the cover with dual “floating” oval LEDs, the new GT edgier.
The 2012 Continental is also expected to go on a diet by using an aluminum space frame, comparable to that of the Audi R8. Expect improved performance from the 6.0 liter W12 although the new Continental will most likely not receive a substantial amount of power. A redesigned interior will provide the driver with new, modern conveniences while also allowing them to customize their ride.
2012 Bentley Continental GT represents the cliche “things are not always what they seem.” In people, the new GT appears lower, wider, and ferocious than ever, despite an overall height has increased by 0.7 inches. The drag coefficient down from 0.34 to 0.33, thanks largely to improved underbody aerodynamics to the wheel arches and exhaust area. Most of the increase in powertrain caused by ZF 6-speed automatic, which sports a set of strong teeth and the planet, a la coupe Supersports flow, Quickshift, a system that divides the two-time shift and allows for instant double downshifts (say, from sixth to fourth gear) .
The speed-sensitive ZF Servotronic steering in the GT is weighted on the side of light, which is fine, because both are very good linearity and response. With a wider track and more aluminum-intensive suspension with anti-roll bar revised springs, dampers, and, the GT comes in more like Supersports – surprisingly light on his feet. On sale around April 2011, with a base price of about $ 195,000, the 2012 Continental GT is a beautiful evolution of a first gene that has more or less definite GT ultra-premium segment for most of the last decade.
