No Bentley is short of speed, but the British luxury maker reserves use of its Speed branding to its highest performance derivatives. The Continental GT Coupe has now been granted membership to this club, and the new 2022 GT Speed certainly looks suitably fast and imposing in these first official pictures.
Despite its name, the Continental GT Speed is not substantially quicker than the car it is based on—at least not in a straight line. Power comes from Bentley's long-serving twin-turbo 6.0-liter W-12, tuned to deliver 650 horsepower in this application. That's 24 hp more than the regular Conti GT W-12, but both cars share the same torque figure of 664 pound-feet. Bentley claims a 0-60 mph time of just 3.5 seconds, one tenth quicker than the corresponding figure for the standard W-12. The Speed's top speed is 208 mph, a 1-mph improvement.
Yet the Speed is about more than just raw speed, with Bentley promising it will be considerably more agile than the existing car. It is the first Continental coupe to get rear-wheel steering. This is a development of the system fitted to the longer Flying Spur sedan, and it's said to both improve maneuverability and sharpen the car's reactions. The Speed also gets a new electronically controlled torque-vectoring differential at the rear. A rearward power bias from the all-wheel drive system and more permissive stability control will enable drivers to experience the Speed's more playful side, and with ESC deactivated the company says it will even be possible to persuade it into oversteer.
