At the 2024 Goodwood Speed Festival, Bentley unveiled the latest generation of the Continental GT. This marks the fourth generation. Today, we saw it in China, including the convertible version. It retains the dynamic elegance of the Continental GT family while undergoing significant upgrades.
The fourth-generation Continental GT maintains the series’ style. It embodies the essence of a super-luxury sports tourer. The front displays symmetrical beauty and retains the iconic mesh grille. Overall, the headlights show significant changes. They no longer feature the classic four-eye design.
The matrix LED headlights contain 120 light units. They control beams independently. This allows for smooth transitions between illuminated and non-illuminated areas. The side design shows significant changes compared to the old model. The body lines appear elegant. The rear side exudes strength.
