The 2024 Bentley Continental GTC blurs the line between sports cars and luxury cars. The convertible packs a thunderous punch with its V-8 engine, but not without surrounding you and your passengers in extravagance.

Though a luxury car by designation, the Continental GTC has enough muscle to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 4 seconds. The source of its blistering acceleration is a 4.0L twin-turbo V-8, cranking out 542 hp and 568 lb-ft. The engine is paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for smooth shifting, which is standard across all trim levels. You can spice up your driving experience by switching to Driver Selectable mode and using the paddle shifters.

If you plan on challenging supercars, Bentley offers the performance-oriented GTC Speed Edition trim level featuring a monstrous 6.0L twin-turbo W12 engine. In this configuration, the convertible burns rubber with 650 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque and completes the 0-60 mph run in a lightning 3.6 seconds.

With all its speed, the Continental GTC corners fiercely with a firm grip on the road. When you turn a corner, the all-wheel drive (AWD) powertrain improves traction by distributing power evenly between the wheels, and the advanced adaptive suspension system adjusts damping forces in real time. Additionally, the Bentley Dynamic Ride system collaborates with the car’s suspension and anti-roll bars, using motors to counteract high g-forces.

Performance tires are standard, and you can bring the mighty Continental GTC to a quick halt thanks to the 16.5-inch brake rotors. For extra stopping power, carbon ceramic brakes with red or black calipers are available.

Under its convertible roof, the Continental GTC features heated and ventilated premium leather front seats with 12-way power adjustment and memory functions. Heated bucket rear seats are standard, and there are still 36.9 inches of headspace for the rear passengers with the roof up. You will find a comfortable grip on the heated leather steering wheel, which is also available wrapped in simulated suede. Other comfort features include dual-zone climate control, front and rear cupholders, and available ambient lighting.

Bentley’s innovative Rotating Display, featured in the 2024 Continental GTC, won the Dashboard of the Year award at the 2023 Automobile Awards. The display allows drivers to switch between analog dials, a decorative pattern matching the interior trim, and a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen. You can connect your phone via Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and use the infotainment system to stream music on the 10-speaker audio system, or you can use its navigation system to find your way around unfamiliar streets.
