2012 Bentley Continental GTC Convertible unveiled at LA Auto Show

The  Bentley Continental GTC debuting at the LA Auto Show showcases a more crispier and good looking Bentley like no other, thanks to the aluminium superformed front wings, and, in the rear, the double horseshoe design which was first seen on the Bentley’s flagship model, the Mulsanne.

Below the surface the GTC rockets from 0-100km/h in 4.5 seconds and is powered by a 569 PS powerplant that boasts a 699 Nm of torque, and a Quickshift transmission that improves acceleration response times and cuts shift times to only 200 milliseconds. The GTC’s chassis is the stiffest on any convertible in the world and provides a firm foundation for an exceptional handling.

The GTC’s interior features high quality wood and leather craftsmanship, known to be in a Bentley, that go hand in hand with class leading technology like an eight inch touch screen infotainment system, zip code entry navigation system, all supported by a 30 gigabyte hard drive. To ensure drivers and passengers alike enjoy an extended top-down driving, the GTC now features neck warmers in the rear headrests of its cobra designed slim line seats. With the top up, acoustics have been significantly improved due to the addition of an acoustically sensitive undersheet, wheel liners, front and side glass and a three layer roof with a rubber-film middle layer.

The 2012 Bentley Continental GTC Convertible will be available across all North American dealerships.
