Bentley Motors continues the incremental rollout of new models, following the introduction of the gorgeous Continental GT with the Continental GT Convertible and Continental GT Speed variants. Naturally, now we have the Continental GT Speed Convertible.

What the car lacks in surprise is makes up for in superlatives, with its astonishing opulence matching its breath-taking speed.

The car employs the same active air suspension, active anti-roll control, and rear-wheel steering systems that so impressed us in Bentley's Flying Spur limousine, and they work to even greater effect in the smaller, lighter Continental.

“The new Speed is the most driver-focused Continental GT Convertible available and unique in its ability to offer extremely refined, all-season open-top Grand Touring with the added edge of astonishing performance and dynamism," stated Chris Craft, Member of the Board for Sales and Marketing at Bentley Motors.

We look forward to a first-hand opportunity to report on the car's excellence!
