What makes the Bentley Continental GT Mulliner the fastest Continental GT?

The Bentley Continental GT Mulliner has electronic all-wheel steering and Bentley Dynamic Ride – a three-chamber air suspension system with adaptive damping settings. It also comes with ceramic brakes, variable stability control (ESC) and an electronic limited slip differential (e-LSD) for torque vectoring. 

The 6-litre W12 petrol engine has twin turbos and a 659PS and 900Nm output. It’s paired with an all-wheel-drive (AWD) system which offers a balanced split in “Bentley” and “Comfort” modes, but rear-biased torque delivery in “Sport” mode. 

Flat out, the Bentley Continental GT can scoot from 0-100kmph in just 3.6 seconds, and on to a top speed of 335kmph! 

Bentley Continental GT Mulliner Features

The Continental GT Mulliner isn’t just the quickest, but also the most feature-loaded sports coupe (and convertible)  in the carmaker’s lineup. It gets bespoke three-colour upholstery with “diamond in diamond” quilting on the seats, doors and rear side panels. 

The centre timepiece on the dashboard is an exquisite analog Breitling clock which contrasts with the digital driver’s display and infotainment touchscreen.
