The new Continental GT Speed is the most dynamic road car in Bentley’s 101 year history and the ultimate performance-focused interpretation of the world’s benchmark luxury Grand Tourer. Designed, engineered, developed and handcrafted in Bentley’s carbon neutral luxury automotive factory, this new third-generation model builds on a long tradition of Speed variants. Originally introduced with the highly-acclaimed, first generation Continental GT Speed in 2007 – itself inspired by the 3-Litre Speed models of the 1920s. The latest GT Speed continues the bloodline by representing the ultimate combination of luxury and performance in a Grand Touring package. New Electronic All-Wheel Steering enhances the dynamic nature of the Speed in BENTLEY and COMFORT driving modes. However, this is even more apparent in SPORT mode, as the steering combines with Bentley Dynamic Ride and an electronic limited slip differential for a level of agility unlike any other Bentley road car. Specifically tuned hand-in-hand with the traction control and active chassis systems, the eLSD provides increased lateral capacity, improved longitudinal stability, enhanced on-throttle adjustability and delivers better traction in adverse road conditions.
On the occasion of the Sport Festival, the brand of the four rings confirms its commitment to the world of sports competitions by celebrating the start of the competitive season together with the Italian Winter Sports Federation and the commitment to one of the most difficult motoring challenges in the world: the Rally Dakar. The sportiness, which the Audi Brand expresses in the world of Motorsport through avant-garde technologies to be transferred to the road, now translates into the official participation in the Dakar as the first manufacturer in the world to participate in the rally raid with an alternative powertrain. The new challenge is witnessed in Trento by the presence of Stephane Peterhansel, 14-time winner of the Dakar, who for the first time meets the public in the new role of Audi driver. 'Mr Dakar' will be part of the Audi crews that will participate in the next rally raid with the innovative electric Audi RS Q e-tron prototype presented as a preview for Italy.
