    We had a great visit at Decarie Motors in Montreal, this week.

    For the first time in Quebec, the new generation of the Continental GT was presented to the media and to some potential clients.

    The first vehicle developed by Bentley after its passage in the family of Volkswagen, the Continental GT rolls his hump for 15 years now. This new generation, the third since its inception, represents the nec plus ultra of the car of the grand touring Bentley. A perfect blend of prestige and performance.

    Animated by an engine of 12-cylinder biturbo of 6.0-liter, the new Continental GT develops an impressive total of 626 horsepower and a torque of 664 pound-feet of torque. It is enough to have it go from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and to reach a maximum speed of 333 km/h. Not bad for a vehicle that weighs almost 5000 pounds!

    Beyond performance, one only has to ask the bum on the beautiful leather seats with 20 adjustments to the new Continental to understand why some people are willing to pay the price of a house in order to roll in there.

    Hand-made in England, the Continental GT has a cockpit in which only the best quality materials have their place.

    Technology forces, and a large touch screen of 12.3-inch throne at the top of the dashboard. At the push of a single button, it can however disappear in favor of three dials analog.

    Speaking of Bentley, each Continental GT contains more than 10 square meters of wood and more than nine hours of work of craftsmen, only for the cabin!

    Outside, the new Bentley floor of the gigantic 21-inch wheels. No less than 17 different colours can be ordered. A convertible will also be available eventually.
