Continental GT V8 S Review
Bentley is a renowned British automaker, specialising in the luxury car division. It is among the most illustrious names in the automotive industry. The Continental GT is one of the company's current line up. This is the model often credited for the company's ascension into a major brand in the world. It is also the first model from the company to employ 'mass production' manufacturing techniques. The model is offered with a wide range of variants, and one among them is the Bentley Continental GT V8 S . The car is armed with a massive V8 engine, which allows for excellent performance characteristics as well as good fuel efficiency. Turning to the look of the vehicle, it has a sporty build that accentuates its majestic character. Going along with this are more plush design elements that make it stand out as a luxury car. The car's interiors have a stylish, rich appeal that caters to all ranges of passengers. The seats are of comfortable design and covered in fine quality upholstery. Beside this, many other unique decorative elements together improve the quality of the cabin and make for a truly animated ride experience. In addition to this, the cabin hosts vital entertainment and comfort features, which provide for the needs of the passengers and also add value to the ride experience.
Exteriors:
The vehicle has a low and streamlined pose, adding a sporty flavour to its wide and hefty build. At the front, the gloss black radiator grille is striking in its appearance. Situated over this is the emblem of the company. On either side, there are two round headlamp units that add a classy touch to the frontage. The company has incorporated the headlamps with Bi-Xenon lights that come along with an LED main beam support function, ensuring optimum visibility through the drive. At the bottom section of the front, the wide air intakes provide cooling to the large engine, and also give an impressive look. The side profile is complemented by new, all-bright fenders that are further mated with 20 inch stylish alloy wheels. This is further elevated by the red painted brake callipers. The car's body houses clear, sporty lines that improve its majestic stance. There is an option of Beluga gloss door mirrors, which add to the grandeur of the exteriors. The haunch line has a sharp, modern format that creates a confident and sporting feel. The tail lights are of a modest design, and they come with LED light systems for optimum safety on the road during the drive. At the bottom of the rear section, two sets of double exhaust pipes finish off the vehicle's dashing look.
Interiors:
The vehicle's cabin captivates the passengers with a combination of stylish design and handy comfort features. The interiors are layered with a combination of carefully selected leather hides and smooth metal surfaces to deliver the luxurious feel. Furthermore, the Piano Black veneer is lacquered and sanded up to eighteen times to produce a truly flawless finish. Beside this, there are a range of additional veneer options to choose from, including options of carbon fibre and bright tint aluminium. The steering wheel introduces revised paddle-shift gear selectors and a new wheel shape to enable stronger grip. Behind it, the instrument panel and dashboard are designed to echo the flying wings of the brand's emblem.
Engine and Performance:
The vehicle is powered by a 4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine that displaces 3993cc. Furthermore, it can generate a peak power of 521bhp at 6000rpm, and a max torque of 680Nm at 1700rpm. It is coupled with an eight speed automatic transmission for flawless shifting and better performance. Altogether, the engine carries the vehicle to a top speed of 309kmph. In addition to this, the car can go from stall to 100kmph in just 4.3 seconds. Beside sound performance, the engine also delivers a more economical fuel consumption. It has a mileage value of 9.3kmpl, which is notable for its segment. The engine is modelled with a special function wherein only four of its eight cylinders are operational at lower throttle levels.
Braking and Handling:
This vehicle is blessed with superior quality braking and handling systems like any other model from Bentley. Iron brakes with red painted callipers are present for a superior control when driving. Beside this, it has a sports suspension setup, with an electronically adjustable height facility for smoother handling. Also aiding this are air springs with continuous damping control, which further eliminate road anomalies and make for a smoother drive.
Comfort Features:
The cabin is suited with many passenger oriented features that enhance ride pleasure. An advanced Infotainment system provides for the entertainment needs of the passengers. It is further aided by an 8 inch touchscreen in the centre console, which provides access to an integrated information and entertainment system. There is a 30 GB hard drive, which allows quick access to mapping data that is present along with landscape imagery. Also, live traffic data and online access for point of interest searches are also offered for the most uncompromising comfort quality for the passenger. Bluetooth connectivity is another highlight of the cabin. It allows for musical streaming through Bluetooth enabled devices, along with call hosting within the cabin for maximum ease during the drive.
Safety Features:
Dual airbags at the front provide optimum shielding for the driver and the co passenger. In addition to this, there are dual rear side mounted airbags for additional protection to the passengers. Headrests at the front and the rear enhance safety for the passengers' heads and necks. The windows have washers to secure visibility for the driver on wet conditions. Beside all of this, the company has provided the car with superior braking and suspension systems, which eliminate chances of hazards during the drive. An anti lock braking system grants added safety when braking and cornering. In addition to this, an electronic stability control function operates alongside the all wheel drive system to improve control and stability.
Pros:
1. Powerful engine with superior performance
2. Lavish cabin atmosphere with premium features.
Cons:
1. Low ground clearance is disappointing.
3. More comfort features can be given as standard.
