The New and Improved 2014 Bentley Continental GT Speed

Bentley has updated their 2014 Continental GT Speed, making the company’s fastest production model even more powerful than before.

Still powered by the W12 6.0-liter turbo-twin engine, but now the twelve-cylinder motor now develops 626 bhp and 605 lb-ft, compared to the previous year’s model which only reached 616 bhp and 590 lb-ft of torque. This upgrade enables the coupe to reach 206 mph (or 331.5 km/h), with the convertible close behind with a top speed of 203 mph (326.7 km/h).

The Continental GT Speed does not only come with a more powerful engine – the updated version also features a lowered chassis and a stiffer suspension, in addition to minor paint trim updates on the rear diffuser, front splitter and side skirts. The 21-inch alloys, headlights and taillights now come with a dark tint finish, with a red finish being applied to the brake calipers.

In order to add a little more zest to the cabin, Bentley is also introducing new color and stitching options.
