Driving the Bentley GT is like driving with power. Today the leading car manufacturer is focused on technology and environment. The German brand is known to build luxurious cars. Soon it will launch the latest product and that is the small twin turbo v8 version of their Continental model. You have vehicle options of a coupe, a convertible or a sedan. The main target of the company is to reduce its gas consumption by 40%. The V8 GT engine can give off the power of 500 hp which is the same with Audi S8 and the S7. In just 46 seconds, it can reach 60 mph. The speed of the car can go as fast as 185 kmh. During acceleration, the engine gives of strong sound whichis lesser than v8 rumble coming from the American engine. The system of the car is well managed that you will not notice any drop out from it.
During the deceleration of the car, there is an alternator meant to charge the battery. An eight speed automatic transmission makes the auto tougher. This is a version much better than the one that Audi S8 has. The numbers that it projects are not bad and the mpg of the car is great which lures the potential buyers. This new GT V8 Coupe is said to have 12 percent less power and torque compared to the 12 cylinder model. Since this is the case, the car is also much cheaper which is seemed to be a fair deal.
The price of the models clearly defines them, where one is more fun and the other is more luxurious. The agility of the V8 GT Bentley is a result of a lighter engine which changes the weight distribution of the whole car which is now 51/49 from 56/44. If you turn on the corners, you feel immediately the precision of its steering especially on sharp beds. You will also feel the limit of the stability. The car has lesser tendency for under steering compared to the W-12 version. If you have the traction control off, the stability system will allow you to slip so the car can have a controlled drift.
The Bentley GT is powered by an 8 speed gearbox because it enhances the agility of the car. This shifts much faster than the w12 GT. The car also highlights its athletic feature. This can be seen in small changes like B badges, glossy mesh grille, lower front bumper design and oval exhaust tail pipes. You will definitely see that the car is more German than its British counterpart. Nobody seemed to mind because of the fact that you can save a lot of gas (imagine a full tank covering 500 miles). This car model is said to be a perfect car for those who want luxury but want to save more money on gas.
