Bentley launched the Continental GT Azure at the Shanghai Auto Show in April. Unlike the darker colors of the Continental GT Speed, the Azure features lighter, more luxurious hues. The Azure uses Bentley’s second plug-in hybrid system—high-performance plug-in hybrid. It offers lower maximum power and torque than the Speed’s ultra-high-performance plug-in hybrid, but it still outperforms the previous W12 engine. The design remains dynamic yet elegant.
The first time you see the Bentley Continental GT Azure, its creamy paint color captivates you. It shines softly, not with a harsh glare, but with a gentle, jade-like luster. It feels as if a century of Bentley’s history flows slowly over the body. The car offers seven standard exterior colors. Additionally, the MULLINER paint series provides a wide variety of options. You can choose from over 80 colors in total.
The front features a new grille design. The chrome frame complements the straight waterfall style. It retains Bentley’s dignity while adding a modern sporty vibe. The lower grille and sides also use chrome accents, enhancing the luxury appearance.
Walk around the car. The 22-inch silver alloy wheels shine brightly. They echo the “Azure” logo on the fender, hinting at its extraordinary identity. The body lines flow smoothly and powerfully. Even at rest, it resembles a poised cheetah. Its dimensions are 4895mm long, 2187mm wide, and 1397mm high, with a wheelbase of 2851mm.
The rear design captures the dynamic stance of the GT sports car. Strong rear wheel arches define a powerful shoulder line. They connect seamlessly with the upward-sweeping spoiler, creating a cohesive fastback shape. The highlight is the dazzling taillights. Their intricate three-dimensional structure shines brightly like brilliant crystals when illuminated, leaving a lasting impression.
The interior is luxurious. It rivals yachts.
Open the car door. Step into a private yacht. The white and purple interior feels pure and mysterious. The seats and door panels feature 3D comfort-style diamond stitching. The delicate leather texture and contrasting stitching create a custom luxury feel.
The cabin features main and secondary leather made of Nappa. It offers 15 color choices. Details use Dinamica material, which also comes in 15 colors. The interior panels provide many options. These include glossy wood, matte wood, piano lacquer, and engraved aluminum. The Geneva wave finish adds a modern touch.
The “Azure” logo embroidered on the headrest serves as the designer’s signature. It looks understated yet luxurious. The seat supports heating and ventilation. It also offers six massage modes. You can adjust the headrest, cushion, and backrest in 20 different ways. Driving the GT sports car for long distances becomes enjoyable, not uncomfortable.
The health seat system focuses on your physical and mental state. It works with smart air conditioning. It monitors and purifies the air inside the car in real time. You feel Bentley’s ultimate pursuit of “joyful driving” on every trip.
The Continental GT Mulliner Edition offers more than comfort. It boasts advanced technology. The standard driver assistance system includes parking assist and collision warning. It navigates city traffic easily. The car features a Wi-Fi hotspot, wireless Apple CarPlay, and My Bentley App Studio for app downloads.
The Continental GT Speed retains its practical genes despite being a GT sports car. Its 260-liter trunk may not be extravagant, but it fits luggage for two on short trips. Two carry-on suitcases, a golf bag, and a few personal items pack easily. It lives up to the name of a “daily GT sports car.”
The power performance remains strong.
The Continental GT Azure Edition features Bentley’s high-performance hybrid system. It combines a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine with an electric motor. The system delivers a maximum power of 680 horsepower and a peak torque of 930 Nm. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds and reaches a top speed of 270 km/h. In comparison, the Continental GT Speed and Speed Convertible use an ultra-high-performance powertrain. This system produces a maximum power of 782 horsepower and a maximum torque of 1000 Nm. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and achieves a top speed of 335 km/h.
Surprisingly, it has an “electric heart.” The 25.9 kWh battery supports 80 kilometers of pure electric range. You can choose the quiet electric mode while moving through the city. This mode is sufficient for daily commuting. Additionally, with a full tank and full charge, it offers over 850 kilometers of range. You won’t need to worry about frequent stops for gas on long trips in this GT sports car.
The Bentley Continental GT Mulliner elevates the ultra-luxury sports tourer to new heights. It perfectly blends performance with comfort, luxury with technology, and classic with innovation. Whether you seek driving excitement or value travel quality, it meets all your expectations for an ultra-luxury sports tourer.
