The Continental GTC. Inspired by the Grand Touring tradition of Bentley legend. Born of Bentley's breathtaking Continental GT coupe. With the endless power of a 12-cylinder, 6-litre twin-turbocharged engine urging you from 0-60mph in just 4.8 seconds. And a canopy opening up to the endless skies in less than 25 seconds. Welcome to convertible motoring at its exhilarating best.
Exterior
A beautiful profile deserves beautiful treatment. Combine any of the 15 Continental exterior paint colours with one of five available roof colours for an open-top experience that's as individual as your driving style.
A wide range of alloy sports wheels can be specified for your Continental GTC. Gleaming chrome or a painted finish, your choice will be guided as much by aesthetics as by the driving experience you prefer.
Interior
Premium grade leather hides and unbleached wood veneers are the natural ingredients of the Continental GTC's interior. Add one of seven wood veneer options according to taste. Carpets and seatbelts are available to match all hide colours, and you can finish off with any one of the eight convertible headlining colours. A guide to our recommended combinations of exterior and interior colours can be found at FC Kerbeck.
Cutting-edge technology complements traditional Bentley hand-craftsmanship. The advanced cabin features include an infotainment system incorporating DVD Satellite Navigation, built-in Bluetooth rSAP telephone system and telephone voice dialling, multi-function steering wheel, and keyless entry and ignition.
