When Bentley introduced the brand new Bentayga S, we figured it used to be just a topic of time earlier than the corporate’s different vehicles were given a an identical remedy. That makes Monday’s announcement of the brand new Continental GT S no actual wonder, despite the fact that due to a variety of styling and function enhancements, there may be nonetheless masses to be thinking about.
Bentley will be offering the S improve on each the Continental GT coupe and GTC convertible. Visible improvements come with new 22-inch wheels, darkened entrance and rear lighting and black chrome trim. (Smaller 21-inch wheels also are to be had.) Within, the cabin has a mixture of leather-based and Dinamica suede upholstery, with “S” embroidery at the model-specific game seats.
Energy comes from the similar twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine utilized in different Continental GTs, hanging out 542 horsepower and 568 pound-feet of torque. S fashions come same old with a game exhaust — which sounds beautiful rad within the Bentayga S — in addition to Bentley’s Dynamic Trip 48-volt anti-roll generation, serving to to stay the Conti as flat as conceivable whilst cornering.
No pricing knowledge is to be had simply but, however bearing in mind we are speaking a few Bentley Continental GT, a price ticket within the mid-$200,000 vary sounds about proper. That would possibly appear to be so much, however bearing in mind we adore the Bentayga S higher than the extra tough Bentayga Velocity, this may well be the most productive efficiency purchase within the Conti GT vary.
