Exterior and design
The fourth generation Continental GT shows the most extensive revision of the model in two decades; the car is built on the company’s new design language. It is notably the first mainstream Bentley since the 1950s to feature a single headlamp, giving it a more cohesive, modern look while retaining the company’s legacy.
The car’s design is inspired by a resting tiger which is calm and collected, but ready to unleash incredible force which portrays the car’s muscular rear haunches, wide stance, and predatory proportions.
The company has also rolled out a new colour, Tourmaline Green, along with a special gray metallic finish that looks like a solid colour. The convertible variant offers a fabric roof in seven colour options consisting of a tweed option.
Interior and cabin
In terms of interior and cabin design, the cars portray craftmanship and materials commensurate with the lofty price. The car offers four seats with no middle-rear seats. However, the rear legroom is limited to 32.1-inch
