CONTINENTAL GT AZURE

Equipped with a smooth, powerful 4.0 litre V8 petrol engine, the Continental GT Azure takes GT luxury, elegance and effortless performance to new heights.

The luxury Grand Tourer reinvented

Bringing together innovative technology and exquisite craftsmanship, the Continental GT Azure includes countless features aimed at improving the travelling experience.

Innovations in personal comfort, from the seats to the ionisers that purify the air, result in a truly breathtaking Bentley interior – while a suite of assistance systems make driving the car truly effortless. With enough room for four adults to travel in comfort and style, plus ample space for stowing luggage in the boot, the Continental GT Azure is more than just a grand tourer. It is a vehicle designed with the comfort and wellbeing of every occupant in mind.

Design

The car’s profile is accentuated by the Bentley powerline, a smooth crease flowing up from the front wheels and back to the haunch at the rear, evoking the path of the air as it moves over the car’s streamlined body.

Together, the elegant bright chrome front grille and lower bumper grilles announce the arrival of the Continental GT Azure, while gleaming exterior badging confirms its identity.

The car is fitted with 22” wheels, uniquely available on the Azure. Alternatively, it can be commissioned with any other wheels available on the Continental GT, in a selection of sizes starting at 21”.

Sitting beneath the panoramic sunroof, you will be struck by a sense of light and space. This may be a two-door coupé, but it provides enough room for four adults to travel in comfort and in style.

Many design touches are exclusive to the Azure, from the Azure treadplates you encounter on the way in, to the unique badging on the fascia and the embroidery on the handcrafted seats.

An uninterrupted flow of hand-finished veneers encompasses driver and passengers, reflecting the symmetry of the Bentley ‘Wings’ as it radiates upwards from the central console and out into the doors.

Contrast stitching and diamond knurled controls take their place among a series of finely crafted details, from jewel oil and filler caps to deep pile overmats, sports pedals and even an optional duo-tone heated steering wheel.

Performance

Effortless power is available at all times, thanks to a twin-turbocharged, 4.0 litre V8 engine, which can propel you smoothly from zero to 60 mph in just 3.9 seconds (0-100 km/h in 4.0 seconds). The top speed, should you wish to explore it, is 198 mph (318 km/h).

Adaptive, three-chamber air suspension contributes to an incredibly refined ride, while the Bentley Dynamic Ride anti-roll system goes even further – working to keep the cabin stable in corners, without compromising on cruising comfort.

Four driving modes enable you to prioritise comfort over exhilaration or vice versa – or strike the perfect balance between the two. And with variable displacement, which shuts down four of the eight cylinders when their full power is not required, you can count on your car to perform as efficiently as possible.

Technology

Inside the cabin, innovations in wellbeing transform the experience of drivers and passengers alike. The Pirelli Noise Cancellation System keeps the cabin quiet, even at speed, while air ionisers purify the atmosphere and mood lighting enhances the ambience.

The Front Seat Comfort Specification provides heating, ventilation and massage functionality, plus comfort headrests and 22-way electrical adjustment, with memory settings for two occupants per seat. Even the bolsters can be electrically adjusted to provide just the right amount of support.

Personalisation

The standard specification of the Continental GT Azure is unlike that of any other car. But at this level, standard features are just the beginning.

While the standard exterior paint range includes seven colours, that choice grows to more than 80 when you consider both the extended range and Mulliner Paints. You can choose from any of the wheels available as standard across the range, alongside designs exclusive to the Azure.

Inside, you can choose from Bentley’s entire range of hide colours and two-tone colour splits. Your chosen hide can be accentuated with piping and hand cross-stitching, bringing the entire interior to life. Bentley’s full range of veneers is available, including traditional high-gloss wood and contemporary open-pore options including Crown Cut Walnut, Burr Walnut and Koa.

Technical finishes are also available, including Carbon Fibre and engine-turned aluminium. High-gloss woods can be elevated further with the addition of gleaming metal overlays.

There is a choice of three sound systems: Bentley Signature Audio, Bang & Olufsen for Bentley and the phenomenal Naim for Bentley. For the ultimate in personalisation, meanwhile, you can call on Mulliner, Bentley’s personal commissioning division, to make your car truly unique. When you choose the Continental GT Azure, the only limit is your imagination.
