This is one car that didn't need any facelift, I mean look at it! It can't get any better than it is, and I believe it will stand the test of time without any facelifts.
So same top speed, roughly the same acceleration, but probably shittier in the corners because of the weight, also less trunk / boot space... IN A GRAN TOURER. Evolution, just backwards. Edit: I know the engine is your run of the mill VAG V8, but why does it have to sound like an Audi RS7? I get that VAG is notorious for cutting corners, but at least use a different exaust, especially for a quarter million euros. Buying modern cars is the equivalent of paying anything more than €2.50 for fast food fries: You're getting ripped off.
🚥 I understand the usage case for going hybrid save some co2 emissions but I have a 4.0 Bentley Continental GT that makes 1000 horsepower and 1200 foot pounds of torque ALL motor😏No hybrid…but hey different strokes for different folks 😂
I don’t understand the new direction of carmakers in going smaller engine hybrid but total weight is the same as previous big engine! Yes it will have a slightly more hp and 0.2 seconds acceleration but if I tune that old big engine I can still get a better acceleration and enjoy the glorious sound!
its the same case as astons and lambos too a special limited run vehicle gets launched and a couple of yrs later the mass production models copy their designs
Fantastic video! I have incurred so much losses trading on my own....I trade well on demo but I think the real market is manipulated.... Can anyone help me out or at least tell me what I'm doing wrong??
Investing with an expert is the best strategy for beginners and busy investors, as most failures and losses in investment usually happen when you invest without proper guidance. I'm speaking from experience.
Even the previous head- and backlights were so much more beautiful! I appreciate that it didn't got even uglier, but this face-lift could've waited a few years 💯
It should have had a flat plane na v8 and then the hybrid system or an na w12 with hybrid, to still keep the nice sound but even better and still have the eco friendlyness and the more power...
Marketing! Whilst the car may be a 3rd gen facelift, it has a whole new powertrain. Since it is visually distinct enough from 3rd gen you may as well market it is as "4th gen" to mark the significance of the change to PHEV.
Sooo...where should we stop...@1000HP, @5000HP...where do we draw the line and say this is BS and we dont need or want that much HP in a car build for the normal roads and not tracks?
Oh yeah! Emissions! Exactly what I think of when I think of Bentley! /S I hope it sells like SHIT, so they bring the W12 back and stop with the BS, like Ferrari and Aston already did! Hybrids should be A option, not the ONLY option, especially in sports cars. Make a fvcking crossover and sell it as a hybrid only FFS!
I like Porsche Panamera and the Continental GT both suddenly have a new, awesome suspension system. The Panamera is a bargain when you learn the similarities with the Bentley.
Being a Bentley, I actually like it to have this hybrid system. Just because it was already a heavy car, guess that extra kilos won’t matter that much.
I absolutely hate new cars coming with electric batteries they say yes it has more power so it’s better but they forget to add it also weighs the same as a Abrams tank now! Everything is too heavy and woffs about on corners and usually kills engine sound with this emission laws it’s just a complete waste of time
Small boot could be offset by removing the rear seats in favour of a flat shelf. Which btw would be better suited for my dogs. That's what I'll be ordering/asking for. Cheers
Really nice facelift. Actually the execution of the headlights are way better than the Batur and Bacalar. I still see some Audi design cues front that front bumper.
You ain't lying!!! I wish that had come to fruition. It was a beautiful car; just flawless! I loved the green and light brown leather combo; it was just perfect together. They could have sold so many of those. It was my dream car to take to the golf course, or for everyday use ;)

Radar sensor

last gen looks so much more elegant
Even 2010 V12 Vantage also is more elegant than 2024 Continental GT 780bhp.
No it doesn’t this is miles better than all of the last generations
I don't like the headlights, reminds me of an electric Fiat 500

lovely car. HATE the headlight 🥴.
I appreciate the slightly more serious presentation and a normal video title instead of clickbait
This looks way better than the old gen imo. Sounds better too.
The lights front and back are horrible. What were they thinking? The front lights look like a Chevy SSR, the rear don't really have a design.
So no need for you to buy it. Nice. You just saved some money.
I liked them until you said this, and I cannot unsee it now 😅
Agree and the the styling itself is overdone and tacky,much like the anticipated W223 S class facelift with star in its headlights and massive grille
@@manny41p Sorry 😬
For empty posh people that wear Lacoste
Can't they make a traditional ICE model for other countries. V12 with rear wheel drive they would sure sell plenty.
Classy puddle lighting there. Looks like an AliExpress aftermarket 'upgrade'.
Exactly my thought
Very well done package 9/10. PheV all the way. Lots of power for a open top. Bentley nailed it correctly. As they always do.
How is this and the new G-Class not regarded as facelifts?
The new G-class looks the same but is new. This is a facelift I agree. It's like when Porsche does a 991.2 it's the same car but evolved.
@@RomainSandt I get you Bro, but I can bet a million shingles that the new G class shares parts with the outgoing one.
I correct myself... Didn't even notice the G-class has been updated and Mercedes calls it a new car. Obviously like the 911. It's a facelift/upgrade.
@@RomainSandt No worries Brother, thank you for your honesty and integrity.
Marketing! Whilst the car may be a 3rd gen facelift, it has a whole new powertrain. Since it is visually distinct enough from 3rd gen you may as well market it is as "4th gen" to mark the significance of the change to PHEV.

Sooo...where should we stop...@1000HP, @5000HP...where do we draw the line and say this is BS and we dont need or want that much HP in a car build for the normal roads and not tracks?
they will never stop, because rich people that buy these objects are just grown up kids that need to show off based on numbers...
Only real selling factor for electric cars I guess, like the 925bhp Audi E-tron, how often can you use 925bhp on UK roads
I wish that the more mainstream EV manufacturers would concentrate less on power figures and more on range.
Why should a Kia or Hyundai have 600 HP? It's mental
Oh yeah! Emissions! Exactly what I think of when I think of Bentley! /S
I hope it sells like SHIT, so they bring the W12 back and stop with the BS, like Ferrari and Aston already did!
Hybrids should be A option, not the ONLY option, especially in sports cars. Make a fvcking crossover and sell it as a hybrid only FFS!
Prefer the old one! Less weight, more space, v12 🔥
I hope the will be a s variant with no hybrid system
like all the new lights (didn't like the old ones) and appreciate the improved ride comfort
A big victory for Aston Martin.
Witness the fusion of power and refinement
It’s faster than the new M5😭
It also cost 3x as much so really not relevant stat
New M5 is too heavy for an M car
New M5 is a joke, simply a transitional emissions compliant car.
7:14 Fine cut RUBY for tail lamps !
Wait... does this mean, for the first time in Conti GT history, you can no longer put a golf bag in the boot?? Or did i get something wrong.
