New Bentley Continental GT: Goodbye W12, Hello 771hp Hybrid! | 4K

[@ron4431]

I really like the shape of the lights also the attention to detail, true craftsmanship

“Contradiction GT” 😂😂

Great joke

Auto trader is just becoming more appealing than CARWOW. Start some drag races!!

[@marvelrafael8008]

Balapan drag di carwow hanya 5 menit sisanya hanya omong kosong mat dengan noda di wajahnya , sangat membosankan

[@rorisangmamatela6506]

Maybe something different. Copying Carwow will cut quality Maybe like those Top Gear intercontinental challenges ? Or some "everyday environment" races 😗

[@Car10121-s]

A bit contradicting, more appealing but copy them?

[@SM-1010]

@@Car10121-s I think that doing drag races with their quality standards will add more spice to the channel. CARWOW drag races are full of such time wasters and windy audio. Plus when they drag race I notice they don’t even bother with accurate results: I.e. I’ve noticed some cars with have full tanks of gas compared to other with less than a quarter

[@need4speed290]

Nah this channel is more for us, car nerds. I don't want this to change.

[@tonydwietwarze]

I can understand going from a V12 engine to a V8 Hybrid , but i can't understand the reasoning behind the headlight design .... It was a distinct Feature , i always new in my rear view mirror that I'm gonna be overtaken by a Bentley.... It was a feeling

[@frederickspeller8117]

Yeah completely ruined the look. And the tail lights look like a fly's eyes.

[@catafalque3634]

Brilliant review by the charismatic Alex, informative and fun.

[@SH33MY__KE]

@AutoTrader is the best automotive channel reviewer of all 💯🔥🎉

[@tonylourenco4393]

Now only if all the automakers can concentrate on bringing the weight down on vehicles, improving the materials then increasing the output of motors

[@benkrapf]

At this point, that's up to materials tech more than it is auto manufacturers.

[@Neojhun]

Hold up, bringing the weight down on a BENTLEY!!! You have no clue what you are talking about.

[@MuppetsSh0w]

@@Neojhun It wouldnt hurt

[@RoyaltyGotHits]

The upgrades are welcome… except for the headlights. Thats not an upgrade.

[@justray8895]

The best thing about this video is the script and the oh so verbally skilled presenter. Even eyes outshining the headlights. ;)

[@MediumBluWonder]

Excellent review! RIP W12, but at least this powertrain isn't anemic, albeit more complicated in the name of fuel efficiency. Wonder how it will perform in IRL testing & long term. Those headlights remind me a little bit of the Baytur but I do miss the round quad headlights. My pops had a early MK1 Speed & those headlights made it stand out.

[@JJ-vy2rh]

The lights should of stayed round

[@AndySouvlakis]

Front lights; yeah I'm just learning 3d modeling in Blender .... it's my first day ... I'm kind of finished with the project already.

[@habeebshabbir8766]

It's looks like face-lift not too much change with previous.

[@jbaru648]

Nobody complained about the signature headlights, only the rear. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Bentley just can’t seem to get it right.

[@Roddy_Zeh]

The car looks good, but if I was in the market for a Bentley Conti GT, I'd rather go for a W12. ☕️🗿

[@shookfng]

Make your own

[@Roddy_Zeh]

@@shookfng No need to, I'd buy a used one from the previous gen, wouldn't mind being a couple years old. 👌🏻🗿

[@samly1762]

Smart conoisseur

[@mvgnet]

"It makes the W12 Speed look like an asthmatic pipe smoker" How's that? W12 has 659 hp and 900 Nm torque. 0-62 is 3.6 sec and top speed 208 mph The new one (V8 Hybrid) has 771 hp (112 hp more) and 1000 Nm (100 Nm more). Only 0.3 sec faster and same top speed. Plus the new one is heavier (+186 kg). It's only more efficient and less good looking.

[@brq44]

Looks great!

[@alanwayte432]

Never have a driver and a car been so well matched

[@sutats]

Now that's a car!

[@mcmormus]

My dream car since I know what cars are! Each one more beautiful than the previous. ❤

[@peterlbaldwin511]

Sadly there will always be those who criticise anything new. I do not dislike the new headlight design and the "four headlight" concept in use in the "Continentals" since the 1960's, was becoming a little "mundane", to say the least. To me, Bentley has once again shifted the "benchmark" by which Performance "Supercars" will be judged. Performance, Acceleration, Top Speed etc. easily hold their own in the upper echelons of the automotive world and are far above what most purchasers will ever need or use, I suspect yet all the time combined with supreme comfort and ease of accessibility to and from the vehicle. To those who criticise the vehicles weight, I have had the experience of driving two radically different vehicles over the same 650 mile trip(+/- 8hrs, depending on time taken at border crossings)in a comparatively short space of time. One trip was in a small, lightweight Alfa Romeo Coupe, the second was in a Four Door, Range Rover V8.. Emerging at the end of the trip in the little "Alfa" I felt as though I had just somehow, managed to survive "8 Rounds with Muhammed Ali ". Getting out of the Range Rover after the same trip, I felt that I had just had a pleasant Sunday afternoon drive in the country. A vehicle's weight does help to provide more stability, better road handling and hence more comfort and safety for those travelling...Not so...?

[@kevinbungles]

Absolutely love this

[@davidhorobin1060]

What about the boot space? This has been getting progressively smaller since 2018. I imagine you will be hard-pressed to get a briefcase in there now and they’ll certainly be no spare wheel, as there is in my 2016 GTC.

[@jeremiahanthony5521]

Imma miss that W12 growl😢😢😢

[@aneebaba06]

Prefer the outgoing twin headlights

[@Bted__ever]

@1:53 what race track is that? absolutely stunning.

[@Estearius]

Can we have version with bigger cargo space? Its baffling that "GT" car with width of BMW7 and length of almost BMW5 has almost no cargo space.

[@maesmichael]

As a W12 Speed owner I'd adivise: get the new Vanquish (or a used W12 Speed) 🙏🏻

[@opukar2043]

all right finally this GT got complete BMW treatment from all new 5 series.

[@shookfng]

BMW owns Rolls-Royce. Volkswagen Group owns Bentley.

[@chipbarfield62]

Those headlights look like hell what the blank are these people thinking

[@gride5153]

What does “Wireless Smartphone Mirroring” mean? Is that Wireless Apple CarPlay?

[@jansz1589]

Yeah, 4 less cylinders... alright, understandable these days, power makes up for it somewhat, but there is one more problem... 2460kg is some 200kg more than the W12 and 300kg more than the V8... not that those ones were very light. I mean, it's a luxury GT, but still a little annoying, isn't it?

[@EGamer05]

After a long time only changed the shape of the headlights

[@TheRTM]

Lovely car but don't like the line thru the head lights

[@ws1814]

I prefer the previous headlamps.

[@phuketexplorer]

If it's driven to its maximum range of 50 miles in EV mode - which most buyers are likely to do - then of course it'll need plugging in.

[@The_journeyy]

What a masterpiece 😮

[@renaatvandepapeliere7233]

I am staying with my W12 Speed Edition.

[@xolilemualefe5015]

Best and most desirable GT ever

this is a commercial and the elephant in the room is ( and smartly not mentioned) the WEIGHT!!!.....near 3000 kg I presume. Still a great car but loose the battery.....

[@Happy_Soyjak]

Nice 2-door Audi A8 convertible.

[@nigelha3699]

so..its got a Porsche Panamera/cayenne turbo SE hybrid power train then....nice

[@Spenny909]

This is what it sounds like, with added marketing blurb.

[@kabelotshita4510]

I’m not so blown away as I was with the previous version. I don’t know why. I guess it is a face lift

[@Edgycoo]

sounds like the BMW power plant which, with its added weight, made it slower.

[@MrKm1066]

Hay audience, the guys at AutoTrader forgot to mention that the owners of Bentley, Volkswagen in Germany 🇩🇪 is in serious trouble financially: the roof is on fire and profits are crashing down like nothing before! Its factory in Belgium 🇧🇪 has closed & they can’t find a buyer, this quarterly results have a staggering 42% drop, all staff are about to take a 10% deduction in their salaries, more talk of factories in Germany to close, its a disaster! Hope Bentley is safe from being sold off 🙏. What will this mean for the value of the fantastic Brand???

[@martynhoward4287]

The only thing wrong with Bentleys is all the electronics, so what did they do, add even more

[@andrewsingh]

Anyone else getting Chrysler vibes from the headlights?

[@thinkingman7767]

Why i love continental gt. I don't know maybe it looks so special

[@CaptainFearless1]

they are without question unbelievably attractive pieces of engineering perfection but just being logical where on earth would a typical driver ever use that level of power, or even be competent enough to drive safely at high speeds. Just a bit of a conundrum but guess if you can afford excess its more of a status buy

[@agtsp4144]

Still prefer the DB12 over it 🙂

as if it needed faster depreciation

[@Neojhun]

Quite sure the depreciation will be the same as usual. Not faster.

[@MohammadAli-fs7zp]

@@Neojhun all hybrids depreciate faster, I am not a hybrid hater, I love the versatility, but in this case it is a Bentley, who cares about 200 more horsepower, it is supposed to be like a mechanical watch, with all its down sides. If we learn anything from before, these cars are already not reliable, not expecting anything better with more complexity. Also, this same 4.0 v8 is used in a lot of cars, nothing feels like a choice for the consumer anymore

[@JimmyJenkinJohnson]

They should of kept the crystal headlights

[@owenmcdonald5922]

Don't like that front Radar/Sensor on the front grill, is so off center, why not in the center?, It looks like a mold. C'mon Bentley do better. And maybe on the lower grill as well in the center.🤔

Yeah Bentley's going to lose a few over this one, although I like the headlight change, I'm not in love with it, secondly, they completely through the bright works out the window, that's all part of the touring experience. Looks like Bentley hired some Asian cats to do this one... going cheap has a dividend all right, it's called payback
