2018 Bentley Continental GTC Spied – Video

 

Both the 2018 GT coupé and GTC convertible feature new front-end styling that appears to draw from the EXP 10 Speed 6 concept first seen at last year’s Geneva motor show – including a lower front and rear than the current car, as well as shorter overhangs and a shorter wheelbase.

Despite receiving new styling features, the Continental still carries Bentley’s hallmark design, including plenty of cues from the current model.

 

 

Powertrains will include the all-new 600bhp W12 that’s making its debut in the Bentayga and an updated 4.0-litre petrol V8. There will also be a petrol V6 plug-in hybrid, which will use a set-up that develops 410bhp in today’s Porsche Cayenne plug-in hybrid.

It’s unlikely that Bentley will offer a diesel V8 option in the Continental. This engine is soon to appear in the Bentayga with around 400bhp, rather than the 380bhp that it develops in the Cayenne.
