6.9 crore – 10.666 crore
(+Ex-Factory Price)The Bentley Continental GT is a four-seat luxury grand tourer for Australian buyers who want handcrafted refinement, effortless interstate performance and modern plug-in hybrid flexibility in a dramatic two-door coupe, with the current fourth-generation range combining a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8, an electric motor, all-wheel drive and an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. Depending on the selected derivative, the Continental GT offers either the 680 PS High Performance Hybrid system with 930 Nm or the 782 PS Ultra Performance Hybrid system with 1,000 Nm, while electric-only driving, active chassis technology, all-wheel steering, premium connectivity and extensive Mulliner personalisation broaden its appeal beyond outright speed. For buyers in Australia, the GT is best suited to long-distance touring and special-occasion ownership rather than tight urban commuting, so comparisons should include the exact local variant, charging access, wheel and tyre costs, rear-seat usefulness, boot capacity, driver-assistance specification and the practical effect of its wide body and low-profile tyres.
The Bentley Continental GT is the coupe at the centre of Bentley’s modern grand-touring range. The current fourth-generation car retains the long-bonnet, short-deck proportions that define the model, but introduces a cleaner front design, new lighting signatures and a plug-in hybrid powertrain across the range. For Australian customers, it combines the comfort expected of a hand-built luxury car with the traction, response and efficiency benefits of electrification, while official Bentley retailers provide new-car sales, servicing, genuine parts and approved pre-owned support.
The core High Performance Hybrid powertrain pairs a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 with an electric motor and a 25.9 kWh battery. In the Continental GT and comfort-focused Azure, the combined system produces 680 PS and 930 Nm, enabling strong acceleration while also supporting electric-only driving for shorter urban journeys. Performance-focused derivatives such as the Speed and Mulliner use the Ultra Performance Hybrid system, which raises combined output to 782 PS and torque to 1,000 Nm. Bentley quotes 0–100 km/h in around 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 335 km/h for the most powerful coupe versions, subject to tyre specification and market conditions.
Australian buyers can choose between distinct personalities within the range. The standard Continental GT balances luxury and performance, Azure emphasises occupant wellbeing and ride comfort, S adds a darker and sportier design treatment, Speed prioritises maximum performance, and Mulliner combines flagship power with the most elaborate craftsmanship. Exact Australian availability and standard equipment can change by model year, so buyers should confirm the local build specification with an authorised retailer rather than assuming that an overseas configurator matches the delivered vehicle.
The cabin remains one of the Continental GT’s strongest qualities. It provides four seats, although the rear pair are better suited to shorter adults, children or occasional use. Nappa leather, metal switchgear and handcrafted veneers create a traditional luxury atmosphere, while wireless smartphone integration, connected services, navigation and the available Bentley Rotating Display add modern functionality. Optional audio systems from Bang & Olufsen and Naim, wellness-oriented seating, extensive hide choices and personalised stitching allow the interior to be configured for touring, visual impact or understated elegance.
On Australian roads, the active chassis is particularly valuable. Air suspension, adaptive dampers, all-wheel steering and Bentley Dynamic Ride help the large coupe feel stable on highways and more manageable in urban areas. The hybrid system can provide smooth electric assistance in traffic, but regular home charging is needed to obtain the best electric range and fuel-saving benefit. Large 21-inch and 22-inch wheels enhance the stance, yet tyre replacement and pothole damage can be expensive, especially outside major cities where specialist stock may be limited.
Paint choice extends well beyond the seven standard colours listed in this CSV. Bentley’s extended and Mulliner ranges offer more than 80 exterior finishes, including bespoke commissions, but availability and cost depend on the selected derivative and ordering programme. The Continental GT is therefore most compelling for an Australian buyer who wants a deeply personalised, fast and comfortable long-distance coupe and accepts the purchase price, servicing, insurance, charging planning and limited rear-seat practicality associated with a high-end grand tourer.
